Sacha Baron Cohen makes risqué joke about Tiger Woods in Jimmy Kimmel sketch

Sacha Baron Cohen has performed a sketch on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in which he sells black market Covid vaccines to celebrities, from Bono to Kanye West.

The interview begins with Cohen earnestly promoting Borat 2, but he is soon interrupted by one of his many burner phones ringing on his desk.

“Bono? Oh hey man, what’s up?” he says into the phone. “Yeah, I’ve got AstraZeneca, Pfizer, what do you want? Yeah, Venmo is fine.”

Other stars that Cohen pretends to receive a call from include Tom Cruise, who Cohen jokes is “old enough to get it legally”. Then taking a call from Kanye West, Cohen replies: “Yo, yo, yo, I can get you Johnson & Johnson. No, not Dakota and Don.”

Referencing West’s divorce from Kim Kardashian, with whom the rapper has four children, Cohen adds: “What do you mean you only need one now? I’ve got you down for six... Oh, sorry, I hadn’t heard.”

He ends the call with: “And don’t drive for six hours. If only Tiger had listened to me.”

Last week, a car crash in California left Woods with serious injuries.

The sketch also features an appearance from Cohen’s wife Isla Fischer, and closes with Cohen getting busted by the LAPD.
