Cohen to be sued again over 'Borat' film
Sacha Baron Cohen is being sued again for his movie Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, by a woman who appeared in it without realising how she would be portrayed.

Cathy Martin, an Alabama etiquette expert, agreed to let the comedian film a dinner sequence at her home where Cohen, dressed as Borat for the movie, pokes fun at her and her friends.

Martin is suing Cohen for fraud, emotional distress and invasion of privacy.

She had signed an agreement allowing her to appear in the movie, but she claims that she did not realise how much she would be ridiculed for taking part.
