Sacha Baron Cohen snubbed by Ryan Seacrest

Television host Ryan Seacrest reportedly turned down interviewing British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen, supposedly still hurting from a gag that Sacha had pulled on him four years ago.

While he was promoting his film The Dictator in 2012, Sacha appeared on the Oscars’ red carpet in character as Admiral General Haffaz Aladeen and spilled the “ashes of Kim Jong Il” on his tuxedo. This year, as Ryan was on the red carpet interviewing celebrities, he reportedly saw Sacha approaching him, turned away and said “no”. According to Dailymail.co.uk, Sacha came back later and interrupted Ryan’s interview with another star and hugged him.
