Could Bruno Be Nixed for Baron Cohen?
… OJ Getting Offers from Nets … Erik Estrada Tries to Be Real Cop All the publicity (good and bad) that “Borat” has generated could make it difficult for Sacha Baron Cohen to make his next movie, which features him as a flamboyantly gay Austrian fashionista, Bruno. The Los Angeles Times investigates the problems that Borat has caused for Bruno, including the fact that Baron Cohen’s cover might now be permanently blown … OJ Simpson is being hounded by networks for yet another “blockbuster” interview, says Rush & Molloy. What’s more, there are hours and hours of tape, brokered by agent David Hans Schmidt, that might surface, which could provide a confession (yeah, right) … Erik Estrada, who never learned how to use a gun properly the whole time he was on “CHiPs,” will now be doing so. He joins La Toya Jackson, Jack Osbourne, and other reality-show vets in Muncie, Ind., as they train to be officers in a new unscripted series for CBS.
