Sacha Baron Cohen’s current film, “The Brothers Grimsby,” is a certified box-office flop, but Luenell Campbell, who played a prostitute in “Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan” is still feeling that film's success 10 years later. And that's not necessarily a good thing.  While Cohen has moved from the crazy ex-Soviet bloc reporter, Campbell, who famously played a prostitute with the same name, has spent the last decade living with the repercussions every day.  Many people who appeared in the film were playing themselves, and millions of people across the world believed that Campbell was another reality contributor.  The 57-year-old actress told Confidential: “Yeah pretty much for the last 10 years I have been mistaken for a hooker wherever I go.  Whoopi Goldberg wants a role in 'OITNB'  “People saw that film and never realized that I was acting — they thought Sacha hired me for those scenes.  “I have just learned to live with it. It happened organically after the movie, men and women assumed I was a hooker as I looked the same as in the movie.  “What made it worse was that the film was talked about for so many months and then is constantly replayed. Most of the people in it are real people, so everyone assumes I was just another one Sacha hired.  “It is a compliment that people think my acting was so good that I play a prostitute so convincingly.  Gangster John Alite and his brother Jimmy are having family issue  “I have too big a sense of humor to get annoyed."  Campbell admits she didn’t have high hopes for the movie while filming it.  “When we worked on this, I felt that the footage they were getting would turn into the biggest piece of s--t ever,” she confessed. “I thought that this was some weird B movie that would never make it to screen and that my movie career was in the toilet.”  The only disappointment Campbell has is that one of her favorite scenes never made the final cut.  “We filmed this whole ‘Baywatch’ sequence where he was The Hoff and I was Pamela running on the beach; it was hilarious,” she remembers. "And then they filmed us having sex on a lifeguard station with my tampon half hanging out.”
Exactly 10 years ago Sacha Baron Cohen was riding high on his greatest success, a big screen version of 'Borat.'
