Sacha Baron Cohen got FBI training for his O.J. Simpson interview
Photo: Showtime It was a swing and a miss for Sacha Baron Cohen’s Who Is America? finale last year, when the comedian, deep in character as a randy Italian billionaire, met O.J. Simpson for a “business opportunity” in an attempt to get a murder confession out of him. It didn’t happen, despite Cohen’s valiant attempts , which were also aided by FBI training he requested, and received, prior to the interview. “I had an absurdly ambitious aim. I did try.
Cohen added that the interrogator was still very helpful, and he even shared some trade secrets. “The FBI have a way with people who are finding it hard to confess,” Cohen said. “There was a sequence that I memorized.” What that sequence is, we’ll never know, so we’ll pretend it sounds like my wiiiiiife.
