I thought it was ######ed, if that's what passes for funny in this day and age then my funny bone is in big trouble.
I thought it was hilarious, I have no idea about the "this day and age" stuff, but watching a homophobic ###### bag like Eminem getting a face full of ass was hilarious.
If Eminem wasn't in on it... Bruno wouldn't be walking today. He looked up, and his 'bodyguards' let it go on way longer than it needed to. They wouldn't have been playing teather ball with him afterwords either.

Staged...
Probably since Eminem needs all the publicity he can get these days and by using him, because of his reputation, Bruno gets additional promotion for his upcoming movie.

Win win... except for anyone who watched it.

But really, to me thats the lowest common denominator of humor. Maybe I don't get this Bruno character, but I honestly thought it was one of the more ######ed things that I've seen.
I'll admit it, I laughed at some of the hijinx and antics of jackass, some of it, mostly the more spontaneous things.
I've laughed at well written and smart crass comedy.
But all this was was some guy who sounded ######ed, straddling a guys face. Whats funny about that.

The reaction was what was so funny.
I don't know if Eminem is a homophobe. Elton John got him off drugs.
Cohen is definitely not the lowest common denominator humor. The absolute best at improv I've ever seen. He has perfect timing, never breaks character and can up the ante on anyone. He's a dick sometimes but he's one of the true comic geniuses in Hollywood right now.

Clearly Eminem was in on it. I was reading another article about it and they were convinced it was real, and that Eminem came off looking really homophobic.
If it was real, how does this make him look homophobic? What is a guy supposed to do in that situation, give Bruno's ass a lick? Because a guy doesn't want male ass in his face he's homophobic?
Anyways, wasn't very funny, a cheap publicity stunt by both Eminem and Cohen. I used to enjoy Cohen's tv show but looks like his time may have passed now.
