While the 'Bruno' publicity stunt involving Eminem got all of the coverage at the MTV awards, this leopard print outfit deserves some coverage too (although his junk didn’t get any).
Dressed in a leopard print outfit, Sacha Baron Cohen stormed the red carpet as ‘Bruno’ and the press could not get enough.
I especially like that he is wearing Cavalli underwear. Fierce!
Implications - Exhibitionism is now being used as a form of marketing. This risque stunt performed by Sacha Baron Cohen may seem ridiculous, but it was an entertaining way to promote his new movie, Bruno. As they say, no publicity is bad publicity. Consumers need to know your brand before they can decide to purchase from it.
