Sacha Baron Cohen disrupted a fashion show in Paris a few days after being arrested for storming the runway at Milan Fashion Week.

Cohen, better known for his characters Ali G and Borat, is working on a new film called Bruno: Delicious Journeys through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Male, in which he plays Austrian fashionista Bruno.

After causing chaos for two days running at the Milan shows, Cohen then created havoc on the catwalks in Paris when he tried to hand a note (pictured) to models parading down the runway at Jean-Charles de Castelbajac's show.

Earlier, he sat in the second row at a Stella McCartney fashion show, sparking rumours he had been invited. He sat smoothing his hair, showing 'wild approval for some looks, disdain for others', website Frillr reported.

British Vogue reported that Cohen was hard to recognise. 'He wore a red thong showing out of the top of his pants and sucked happily on a tampon - yes, a tampon - while he clapped along with the music,' it said.

Bruno is being shot in the same comic documentary style as Cohen's 2006 smash hit Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan.
