Sacha Baron Cohen has sparked outrage in Arkansas after hijacking a cage fighting contest with a display of gay kissing.

The Borat star infuriated fans at the Blue Collar Brawlin’ event when the participants stripped down to their underwear and kissed.

More than 1,600 spectators threw beer and chairs at the act.

It is believed the event was a stunt for Cohen’s new movie Brüno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Males Visibly Uncomfortable in the Presence of a Gay Foreigner in a Mesh T-Shirt.
Dwight Duncan, president of the Four States Fair Grounds which provided the venue said: “We had a contract for cage fighting. We were deceived.”

A spokesman for Cohen declined to say whether he was behind the prank.

The film has already sparked controversy – Cohen was criticized for setting up an Israeli analyst for an outrageous interview about conflicts in the Middle East.
