Bruno -- Sacha Baron Cohen's fashion-critic alter ego -- reportedly wreaked havoc at the Milan fashion show for a second day this weekend, managing to evade security and faking his way onto the catwalk during the Agata Ruiz de la Prada show, where he showed off an outfit of fabrics and accessories held together by Velcro. Guards were called -- and Bruno wound up at a nearby police station. Film of the incident, of course, wound up almost immediately on YouTube and other websites, providing early publicity for Baron Cohen's latest film, Bruno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Male. Milan police, meanwhile, released the comedian without filing charges. One remarked, "He was actually very funny, and the first thing he said was, 'Can I make a phone call like they do on TV?'" »
