“Every day he’s like, ‘Just go naked, it will be funny,” she said in an interview about Sacha Baron Cohen Wilson gave back in 2014. “Remember in Borat when I did that naked scene? It was hilarious.’ On the last day I thought I’d obviously won the argument and he got a body double to do the naked scene.”
The revelation comes after Rebel Wilson, over the weekend, claimed she was being threatened about the comments in her new booking saying on Instagram (since deleted) “I wrote about an a–hole in my book. Now, said a–hole is trying to threaten me. He is trying to stop press coming out about my book. But the book WILL come out and you will all know the truth.”
‘When I first came to Hollywood, people were like, ‘Yeah, I have a no-a**holes policy that means, like, I don’t work with a**holes.,’” added Rebel Wilson. “I was like, ;Yeah, I mean, that sounds sensible and logical.’ I have a no asshole policy, means like, yeah, I don’t work with assholes.’ I was like, ‘Oh yeah. I mean, that sounds sensible or logical. But then it really sunk in because I worked with a massive asshole and yeah, now I definitely have a no assholes policy.”
Now she has written on Instagram, “I will not be silenced by high priced lawyers or PR crisis managers. The a****** I am talking about in ONE CHAPTER of my book is: Sacha Baron Cohen.”
