In a daring and it must be said, brave performance, Sacha Baron-Cohen has repeated his lap dance for Eminem - only this time, the recipient was Iran's President Avadmedinnerdad.
The occasion was glittering - the annual awards ceremony for the Academy of Tyrants, Bigots, Despots and Wild-Eyed Extremist Dictators - and Avadmedinnerdad had just resumed his seat after collecting his award for Best Simulation of a Democratic Election.
Just as North Korea's Kim Jong Il leaned forward in his seat to congratulate Avadmedinnerdad, there was a commotion in the balcony.
Of course, it was Baron-Cohen in his Bruno (gay, Austrian fashionisto) manifestation swinging through the air!
The event compere, Radko Mladic - on vacation from his retreat in Serbia - tried to bring him down with a hastily armed ground to air missile but missed. The missile overshot and took out a number of WAGS who were seated in the special womens' area.
With unerring accuracy, Baron-Cohen was lowered to Avadmedinnerdad's lap. Avadmedinnerdad seemed bemused at the bare buttocks in his face until his 128 bodyguards wrenched Baron-Cohen away. Avadmedinnerdad stormed out.
Reports that the joke was a set-up were denied by Avadmedinnerdad's retinue. When pressed to allow questioning of Baron-Cohen, the President's chief security officer Levi Netanyahu refused but blushingly confessed to having tortured Baron - Cohen "a little".
"It may well have been a joke" affirmed Netanyahu, "but the Iranian Republic cannot be treated with disrespect - and Baron-Cohen's arse is not funny".
President Avadmedinnerdad was not available for comment.
