Eminem and Sacha Baron Cohen Were "Acting"

Eminem-mtv-movie-awards-bruno What? We've been duped! Cheated! Swindled!

It turns out that the now famous little "mishap" at the MTV Movie Awards was, in fact, staged. It was a fake!

Seriously, if you can't trust Hollywood to keep it real... I just don't know anymore.

Apparently Eminem was sitting in his seat, minding his own, watching Forest Whitaker sing "Dick in a Box" when Sacha Baron Cohen, in the role of Bruno, fell from the heavens teabag first and proceeded to make a cuppa Earl Grey in Slim's mug.  Hilarity ensued.

It appears that it also ensued in rehearsal, when the duo first practiced the move.  Word is that the role of Eminem was originally offered to Paris Hilton but she declined, hence Chace Crawford.  Everybody cut, everybody cut.

There is speculation that Cohen took it up a notch during the actual show and that Eminem's anger was the real deal.  It's pretty understandable, Slim is more of a chamomile guy, usually with just a hint of honey.

That being the case, the whole scene was something of a mess anyway.  It was no Fartman.

I'd be VERY surprised if Eminem had been completely acting.
