Now that comic genius Sacha Baron Cohen is promoting his Bruno-centric new flick, those who embarrassed themselves with their own ignorance in it are looking to make a buck.
Following allegations of injury and a new lawsuit, Universal Pictures just released the following statement:
“The allegations made by Richelle and Lance Olson in their complaint are completely baseless. Filmed footage of the full encounter, which took place more than two years ago, clearly shows that Ms. Olson was never touched or in any way assaulted by Sacha Baron Cohen or any member of the production and suffered no injury. If the Olsons elect to proceed with their frivolous action, we expect each of the defendants to be fully vindicated.”
Them’s fightin’ words!
If you were dumb enough to sign a release without having a lawyer look at it, you’re screwed!
