California realtor unknowingly stars in Sacha Baron Cohen’s satirical show
A luxury Bel Air real estate agent became the unwitting focus of a comedic ambush during filming for Sacha Baron Cohen’s *Ali G: Who Iz I?*, according to a recent report.
Adriel Hsu was featured on screen, showcasing a $30 million mansion when he encountered an unusual prospective buyer: Ali G, portrayed by Cohen, and his partner, played by Morgana Robinson.
The property tour quickly descended into chaos. Cohen’s character initially criticized a baby grand piano, deeming it “unlevel” and a “sh*t table.” He later dismissed the outdoor patio as “cr*p” due to its lack of a roof, prompting Hsu to explain its intended design.
The situation escalated when Hsu was drawn into a simulated domestic dispute. After a fictional television deal fell through, Ali G directed Hsu to inform Julie that they had lost their HBO show.
Hsu was compelled to act as a messenger, relaying increasingly tense messages between the couple, who refused to communicate directly. The argument soon involved personal matters.
In one instance, Robinson’s character instructed Hsu to convey that Ali G “still can’t get hard… ever since I got pregnant.” Cohen responded by stating that the mere mention of her name was sufficient.
The bizarre sequence concluded with Hsu being summoned to the bathroom where Cohen was seated on the toilet. Despite Hsu’s attempt to leave, Cohen continued the interaction, even offering a fist bump from the toilet seat.
Hsu’s professionalism throughout the encounter has been widely recognized, providing a grounding element to the prank featured in *Ali G: Who Iz I?*.
