SC: Good evening peers and regular people.
KW: Steve and I play characters on the Despicable Me movies also we get our hair cut together.
SC: Sometimes we say I’ll do that.
KW: I’ll do that. I’ll just take what he has.
SC: I’ll have what she’s having, like the orgasm. We are so happy to present best animated film this evening.
KW: Yes, because we all love animated films. Do you remember the first time you saw an animated movie?
SC: I do actually, very well. It was kind of a big deal, I was six years old and my dad took me to see Fantasia. It was astounding, the music, the spectacle of the whole thing, it was kind of a life changing experience.
KW: Yeah, it’s a classic.
SC: And as we were leaving the theater, there standing in the lobby was my mom.and that was the moment she told my dad that she wanted a divorce. I never saw my father again after that day. Fantasia day. What about you? What was the first animated film you saw?
KW: Ahh, Bambi. March 14th 1981. It was the same day we had to put our dogs down. Three of them. Little Jack, Janet and Krissy. My grandpa thought it would be fun to go to the movie, take our minds off of it. Then You know, Bambi’s mom. And also that was the last day I saw my grandpa, he disappeared, he disappeared and I didn’t speak for two years.
SC: And the nominees are. . .

Sacha Baron Cohen won a Golden Globe for Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan. The same comedian that portrays Ali G.

He makes reference to the infamous scene of his co-star Ken Davitian’s two golden globes on his chin and a thank you to every American that has not sued him.

Here is a transcript of the speech:

Warren? Where is he? It’s ‘wha-wha-we-wha.’

I want to thank the Hollywood Foreign Press. And I just want to say that this movie was a life-changing experience. I saw some amazing, beautiful, invigorating parts of America. But I saw some dark parts of America, an ugly side of America. A side of America that rarely sees the light of day.

I refer, of course, to the anus and testicles of my co-star, Ken Davitian. (Aud laughs as the camera finds Davitian shrugging and raising a wine glass to Cohen.) Ken, when I was in that scene and I stared down and saw your two wrinkled golden globes on my chin, I thought to myself, ‘I better win a bloody award for this.’

And then when my 300-pound co-star decided to sit on my face and squeeze the oxygen from my lungs, I was faced with a choice: Death or to breathe in the air that had been trapped in a small pocket between his buttocks for 30 years.

Kenneth, if it was not for that rancid bubble, I would not be here today.

(Music starts as Cohen holds up Globe gesturing to Davitian. He starts rushing through the rest.)

Thank you to Larry Charles, thank you to Jay Roach, thank you to Isla Fisher, my fiancee. Thank you to Peter Baynham, Anthony Hines and Dan Mazer; thank you to Ari Emanuel; Matt Labov; Erran Baron Cohen, my brother who did the music; and to Jason Alper and (unintelligible due to swelling music). And thank you to every American who has not sued me so far. Thank you.”
