‘The Dictator’ Tells Jon Stewart About His New Bestie, Rick Santorum — VIDEO

The Daily Show scored a major coup on May 7: The Comedy Central series nailed down an interview with a foreign dictator and infamous international terrorist. And by that, we mean they scored an interview with Sacha Baron Cohen in a cape and a beard.

To promote his new movie, The Dictator, Cohen stopped by Jon Stewart’s desk to discuss the big issues: His package and his new bunko partner, Rick Santorum. (Hey, throw the guy a bone. His professed dictator friends are dropping like flies.) And while the actor managed to bring the whole interview home when he demanded Stewart drop trou and let him get a peek at little Jon — for completely normal comparison purposes — it does appear that Monsieur Cohen is fighting a serious case of the giggles throughout the interview. 

Are you giggling like Cohen, or wishing this promotional tour would end?
