Remember Belinda Bedkovic, the Croatian erotic keytarist? She appears in this promo video for the Borat film, jamming with Borat while wearing the same transparent top/metallic bra combo that she was rocking in this YouTube video from some time ago. Either her entire existence is a cruel prank, or it could be time to find Leoncie a part in the next Adam Sandler movie. (via Analog Industries)
UPDATE: OMG! OMG! She's real: Here and here are articles from a Croatian daily paper about her appearing with 'Alijem G'. (Thanks, Anonymous)
Borat AND keytars? Pinch me...am I dreaming??
ReplyDeleteThis could have easily been created without her help or knowledge, simply by taking footage from her existing video and editing himself into it, jamming along. (i.e. forrest gump shaking hands with jfk, etc.)
ReplyDeleteToo funny. : )
ReplyDeleteHoly jesus that's great
ReplyDeleteBorat is playing the Roland AX-7. A fairly new keytar (considering how long they've been around). I own one and love it. It's so wrong... it's righteous.
ReplyDeleteI liked Borat better the first time I saw his act... when he was known as YAKOV SMIRNOFF
ReplyDeleteNot to be a crotchety old bore, but surely I'm not the only soul who loathes the term "keytar."
ReplyDeleteI rather watch Andy Kaufman do this character a hell of a lot better on Taxi ...oh wait this is suppose to be something different? I didn't notice.
ReplyDeleteShe is for real.
ReplyDeleteTwo articles in major Croatian daily newspaper:

She is not famous in any way overhere tough. I have no idea where she performs and for whom??
Well, I'm Croatian and I discovered that girl through this blog. She's not famous in Croatia and she is actually music teacher at elementary school. However, that Cohen guy launched her her 15 minutes of fame.
ReplyDeleteShe has appeared on a CD/fanzine combo: http://www.discogs.com/release/702821 Great stuff :D
ReplyDeleteI Borat taken by the way she rides that thing while churning utteringly flabbergasting cheesy noises (something that over there is called turbo-folk) which just goes down perfect well with Borat's fun at people behind the ol "Iron Curtain"....... Hell. i emailed her in croatian myself :P Jagshe mash!
ReplyDeleteanyone see her perform with borat on Conan wednesday night?? it was awesome. hah
ReplyDeleteBelinda and Borat on Conan O'Brien
ReplyDeleteRight, that was her on Conan with ol' Borat! It was a moment of meta-connections between all these different areas of interest of my life.
