Lunell says Sasha played the part of Borat to the tee and was always in character outside of lunchtime. She confirmed that the racist scenes were 100% real, but she didn't receive any racist treatment outside of filming.
Lunell also says she was taken out of her comfort zone frequently when she encountered racists while filming in Georgia, and also while they were in Romania.
Producer extraordinaire The Alchemist talked to VladTV about getting started in the music game, what his official affiliation with Eminem is, and why he doesn't envision himself as a true DJ.
After parting ways with The Whooliganz in the early 90's, the Cali native focused on his producing and lyrical efforts, which led him to work with Dilated Peoples, Mobb Deep and eventually Eminem. Alchemist cleared up speculation of his official role over at Shady records as the rapper's DJ. He also says he isn't signed to Shady Records like many others have assumed.

Meek Mill is facing a possible $250,000 lawsuit by a car company who claims the rapper has damaged their reputation by publicly trashing them on Instagram.
According to TMZ, Euro Sports owner Gene Morales says when Meek's manager went to pick up a Rolls Royce Ghost. Because there was $15,000 still owed on it, Morales refused to hand over the keys until the balance was paid in full.
Eventually the two parties settled on an $8,000 payment to squash the problem.
Meek later made an Instagram post calling Euro Sports thieves and advised his followers not to do business with them.
Morales now wants the IG post taken down, an apology and $250K for the damage to his company's reputation. If that doesn't happen he will file a lawsuit against the Philly rapper.
