And by killed, I mean: caused all the botoxed foreheads in the room to implode from the force of trying to frown disapprovingly in unison. Baron Cohen took some off-color shots at Victoria Beckham (she's obviously been feeling the recession because "she hasn't eaten in three weeks") and Charlie Sheen ("has been forced [because of the recession] to have sex without paying for it"), but he saved the best for Madonna, and the crowd? Didn't like it so much.
On how Madonna's been handling the recession: "Even Madonna has had to get rid of one of her personal assistants. Our thoughts go out to you, Guy Ritchie."
Cue disapproving groans and disappointed shaking of heads! Because, you don't slag Madonna! Posh, sure, and Charlie Sheen, fine, but Madonna? You just don't do that. Not now, anyway. Because it's a tragedy that she and the father of some of her children split up and broke the family home and divorce blah blah blah. Also, she'll cut you.
I thought it was kind of funny. In poor taste, sure, but hey: Baron Cohen's entire oeuvre (Borat, anyone?) is in poor taste.
And I'll bet Guy Ritchie thought it was funny, too.
