For some, this is not such a sexy time. This deleted scene from the much-loved Borrat movie features one of the most talked about features of the film: the Borat thong bikini. It's more than a little scary, and if you didn't like Borat the first time, don't watch this. On the other hand, if you want to see what happens when other people try to make sexy time, it's very nice!
