Eminem apparently has flown the coop from the MTV Movie Awards after a close encounter with Sacha Baron Cohen.

In character as flamboyant fashion reporter “Bruno,” Baron Cohen flew in above Sunday’s award show audience on a wire — and in a pair of feathery white wings and his rear end mostly exposed.

But the comedian crashed into an overhead obstacle, and he was lowered into the audience — right into Eminem’s lap, his bare hindquarters in the rapper’s face.

Bare-butt ‘Bruno’ lands on Eminem seemed visibly upset at the mishap.

Or was it a joke he was in on?

The rapper stormed out with his entourage in tow — and cameras rolling. In 2002, Sparks flew when the rapper was interviewed by Triumph the Insult Comic Dog at the MTV Video Music Awards.

    Eminem finally got some ass he did not have to pay for, lol@ him trying to act tough everyone in the music industry knows he is a weasel and fake, he is just being exposed.

    I think the awards left a bad taste in Marshell Mathers mouth!! As embarrassed as he was, I could tell he wanted to hit it.

  4. Jen says:

    I really, truly believe that Eminem was in on that! I’ve been a fan for a while, and I’m pretty sure that it would have come to blows if he wasn’t in on it…as it was he just “stormed” off, if you can even call it that.

  5. Steve Maduri says:

    Jen i think he had a hissy fit. he wanted they guys butt closer.

  6. Pjay says:

    If Eminem was actually angry, then he’s just a pissy little girl who doesn’t know how to roll with things and laugh stuff off.

    If he was actually “in on it,” then everyone involved is a faker and a fraud, and it’s just a disgusting fake scene all around. IF these kinds of things are done as jokes, and everyone’s “in on it,” they should let everyone know that immediately afterward.

    But really, who takes rappers seriously?

  7. MTV Movie Awards validates the prophesy of the movie “Idiocracy”.

    The whole show was disgusting. I think Eminem, might have been ok with a little prank, otherwise he would have gotten up and moved. Cohen went too far and it was ridiculous. I hope Eminem fixes them all.

  8. Terry Harris says:

    I Ain’t Never Seen An Ass Like That is one of Eminem’s songs. He’s an absolutely wonderful icon in the rap industry. More creative than any other out there. I am sad it happened. He handled it with dignity by not letting his obvious physical superiority over that jokester get used. As a 55 year old fan of Eminem I can say “you did good, kid”.

  9. Mama says:

    Eminem gained his own fame and fortune by making fun of people and degrading people. If he can’t take a joke himself, even one including another guy’s ass in his face, then he’s a big sissy. No, he’s a half a sissy!! Quit being a poor sport and learn to laugh when shit is funny. Face it Em, that shit was FUNNY!!!
