Don't forget this handsome, smart actor and his wife are very social conscious. Generous and caring. He deserves what he achieves.

[cyberlioness]

Genius. The best. Doesn't hurt that he's also educated, brilliant and gorgeous.

[StephanieJonasDepp]

You never know what to expect from him. One minute he's sitting in a serious interview like this, and the next moment he's pulling an awesome stunt, where he's dealing the vaccine. Gotta love him!

Jimmy's laugh is the best. Sasha is so handsome, he has an incredible smile

[eartherinfire]

Such a talent, mind, and beauty. With guts of steel, too. Love Sacha.

[zlamelie]

Funny, smart, charming, handsome. Good job, Kazakhstan!

[teresitauy]

He is actually good looking , when hair is well combed, and clean shaven .

For those who have never seen his Ali G show, its a classic.

Abbie Hoffman stayed at my parent's home while hitch-hiking through Minnesota. My parents are cool like that.

[divaalfirman]

How can some people say he’s Aladeen, he seems like a very Aladeen guy

[chernovbrichtofen]

I remember in borat 2 when he filmed Rudy “tucking my shirt in” goul-iani

[dhammadina]

How can you not love these guys! They’re hilarious 😂

[mytruecrimelibrary]

Borat is still my favorite movie. Borat2 was hilarious also. Love this guy.❤❤❤

[LeviDavidSchaffer]

The man's a treasure. Kimmel is aight too.

[RockPowerUSA]

Wow, we get a chance to thank Jimmy Kimmel for Borat 2. What a great story that helped end Trump's term and put Giuliani into the stratospheric category of Most Embarrassing Man In America.
Thank you Jimmy and thank you Sasha.

[AMP_Chronicles]

If you haven’t watched Trial of the Chicago 7 watch it right now. It’s amazing.

[linato]

His actual voice/accent never fails to surprise me. 🥰

With a new attitude everything can change, make it how you want it to be, staying mad?, why do that...Give yourself a break, laugh about it & you'll see that life what you make it.
