Sacha Baron Cohen was among the big winners at the Golden Globes at the weekend, winning two awards.

Cohen’s movie sequel Borat Subsequent Moviefilm won best motion picture – musical or comedy – while Cohen himself won the best actor prize in the same category.

And Cohen had not only one of the funniest films of the year, he also had the funniest acceptance speech of the night, thanking his ‘comedy genius’ co-star Rudy Giuliani for, well, best watch for yourself.

Boom.

“I gotta say this movie couldn’t have been possible without my co-star: a fresh new talent who came from nowhere and turned out to be a comedy genius. I’m talking, of course, about Rudy Giuliani. I mean, who could get more laughs out of one unzipping?

“Our movie was just the beginning for him. Rudy went on to star in a string of comedy films, hits like Four Seasons Landscaping, Hair Dye Another Day, and the courtroom drama A Very Public Fart.”

And it wasn’t all he had to say.
