Isla Fisher steps out in LA with bodyguard after Borat 2 release

SAG Award nominee Isla Fisher stood out in a colorful ensemble while out and about in Los Angeles’ Studio City neighborhood on Monday with a bodyguard in tow.

The 44-year-old Australian daughter of Scottish parents made sure to protect herself and others from the coronavirus by wearing a mask.

As of Tuesday, there have been over 300K confirmed COVID-19 cases in Los Angeles leading to 7,000 deaths – according to Johns Hopkins University.

Isla likely hired the bodyguard to shield her from anyone overly outraged over her husband Sacha Baron Cohen’s sequel Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, which started streaming last Friday on Amazon Prime Video.

The 49-year-old Englishman confessed to Late Show on Monday night that reprising his role as Kazakh journalist Borat Sagdiyev ‘was the first movie where I’ve had to wear a bulletproof vest.’

Sacha shared never-before-seen footage of himself escaping an angry mob during a scene shot at a far-right, anti-lockdown rally in Washington State back on June 27. 

After being discovered by undercover BLM protesters, Cohen – disguised as a country singer – literally had to hold the door to his RV shut before speeding away from the Olympia event.

‘One of the guys who stormed the stage went for his pistol,’ the Oscar-nominated screenwriter explained to host Stephen Colbert.

‘And luckily enough there was a very brave guard who actually grabbed his hand, leaned in and said, “It’s not worth it, buddy.” That worked! So that was very nice of him to do that.’

Jason Woliner’s sequel to Sacha’s hit 2006 mockumentary comedy – also starring fabulous Bulgarian newcomer Maria Bakalova – scored a certified fresh 85% critic approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Fisher and Cohen share three children – daughter Olive, 13; daughter Elula Lottie Miriam, 10; and son Montgomery Moses Brian, 5 – and they’ve been married for over a decade now.
