MTV wouldn't drop someone's bare ass in a celebrity's face without clearing it. Em has a better sense of humor than people give him credit for. I just wish Aukerman never admitted it was staged, so we can continue to hear Em fans sexual harassment rants. Hilarious.

Not surprising, but how weird. Was the Rihanna beating staged, too?

Jeeze, with all the intense comments here, we better appoint a new Warren Commission, headed by Scalia.

The people at Fox & Friends didn't seem to think it was staged. But then maybe they were staging their reactions to appear that way. You never know with those people over at that network when they're full of shit or just pretending to be full of shit.

being staged and all, I have to seriously wonder why eminem would agree to it. it just made him look like a pissed off humorless douche. How does having Sascha'as ass in his face and then storming out benefit him what-so-ever?

I'm not saying I think its real or anything... I'm just wondering why someone would go along with it.

Thats like agreeing to be the ass end of a joke...

@geniusscientist: and your suggesting that having an ass shoved in his face and storming out of an awards show will lead to record sales?

Please explain the part that intrigues me to buy albums.

Or is this a case of "any press is good press".

@exo: R.O.A.C.H.: He already had the #1 CD in the country, so I don't see why he'd do it to promote the album. He doesn't need to. And besides that...how on earth would this boost sales?

Bruno tea-bags Eminem. This is the only MTV I've seen in years. And it was good.

I don't buy it.

This is about as staged as when Marky Mark told Jimmy Kimmel he was going to punch Andy Samberg is his big (jewish) nose.

People got to MM and told him he came across like a douche that can't take a joke while he makes fun of everyone in his videos and now he and MTV will pretend like this was all planned. Works for everyone in the end I guess.

How hard is it to have a few cameras around at an award show? They knew where Bruno was going to drop.

OK, I am gay and I know that Eminem is homophobic, but even I felt sorry for him. Poking fun at people is OK, but this really is over the line. We're much better off taking cues the Jon Stewart than Howard Stern.

That said, Cohen must have some serious guts. I'd be afraid Eminem would panic and start punching things that I find to be important to me. And FWIW, I think Eminem handled it pretty well given his prior behaviors... he just walked away. No punching, and the worst thing he said was what I would have had you dropped, say Oprah on me: "Get this MF off of me." The anger management classes must be working.

What kind of country are we living in that a celebrity has to arrange beforehand to stick his ass in your face? This is not the America that I was raised in.
