Sacha Baron Cohen literally landed himself in hot water with Eminem after falling on him – crotch first - during a stunt at the MTV Awards.

The rapper was left furious after Cohen, in character as his gay fashionista alter ego Bruno, crash-landed on him while dressed as an angel in a thong.

The Slim Shady star looked less than amused as Bruno hung suspended in his lap with his groin directly in his face.

Eminem only gained reprieve from the prank when his bodyguards came to his aid.

Many celebrities in the audience, including Cameron Diaz, were in fits of laughter at the stunt, but Eminem did not see the funny side, saying: 'Are you serious? Are you f***ing serious?' as he struggled to get Cohen off him.

As soon as he was able to, the rapper then stormed out of the ceremony.

Sacha was there to present the award for Best Male Performance, and, surely, had the most unique – and hilarious - way of doing so in the history of award bashes!
