Is Sacha Baron Cohen (Borat, Bruno) Planning Another Stunt?

Sources say yes, and this time it will be at the, usually stuffy, Academy Awards.

So far, he's pulled off stunts at the Toronto International Film Festival and the MTV Music Awards and now he's apparently planning one at the Academy Awards coming up on February 26th.  According to the Hollywood Reporter, he's informed Paramont, the studio behind his last two movies, he intends to show up at the awards show as his character in The Dictator. No telling what he's planning to do to promote this movie, which comes out in May.

Yes, this guy is annoying. Yes, we in Texarkana don't care much for him (remember 2008 when he showed up at Shooters as some stupid comic making all sorts of crude jokes (I was there, he was lucky to get out the door.), then pulled the stunt at the fairgrounds which angered quite a few locals), but... I think I'll watch the Academy Awards now just to see what he does. I have to give him credit, he knows how to get people to talk about him (and pay to watch his movies... as dumb as they might be.. although the trailer to The Dictator looks pretty funny.).
