Sacha Baron Cohen
Cohen is an actor and comedian known for posing as different characters to gain material for his productions. He often interviews or talks with people who are unaware that he is playing a character. In the 2008 movie Borat, Cohen played a reporter from Kazakhstan who traveled to the U.S. to make a documentary about the country. Cohen previously became known for his character Ali G, but has said he can no longer play him because too many people recognize the character.CBS: Sacha Baron Cohen's gay fashionista crashes rally against same-sex marriage (November 3, 2008) He later announced that the Borat character, too, would have to be 'killed off'.
