“#\u2018Moral compass\u2019 babysitter in \u2018Borat\u2019 movie feels \u2018betrayed\u2019<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n The babysitter hailed as the \u201cmoral compass\u201d of the new \u201cBorat\u201d movie says she feels \u201cbetrayed\u201d after she was led to believe she was participating in a real documentary about a teen being groomed to marry a rich man \u2014 and prayed for her until the trailer came out.<\/p>\n

Jeanise Jones, 62, said the filmmakers never came clean to her about the true premise after she was recruited through a church in Oklahoma City to be featured in the Sacha Baron Cohen satire.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m feeling like she\u2019s from the third world and that kind of stuff does happ<\/a>en where they sell women. I\u2019m thinking this is for real so I felt kind of betrayed by it,\u201d she told The Post.<\/p>\n

In the movie, \u201cBorat Subsequent Moviefilm,\u201d Baron Cohen revives his infamous Kazakh journalist character Borat Sagdiye as he pranks politicians and other unsuspecting Americans under the guise of marrying off his teen daughter Tutar, played by 24-year-old Bulgarian actress Maria Bakalova.<\/p>\n

Jones\u2019 pastor, Derrick Scobey, said the production approached Ebenezer Baptist Church about needing a \u201csassy\u201d black grandmother in her 70s to participate in a documentary and landed on Jones after speaking to a few other congregants.<\/p>\n

Jones \u2014 who had never heard of Baron Cohen \u2014 was tasked with watching \u201cTutar,\u201d who she was led to believe is 14 or 15 years old.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey told me it was a documentary for this young lady to understand she has rights and she can do whatever a man can do,\u201d Jones said.<\/p>\n

In the film, Jones was seen assuring Tutar that she doesn\u2019t need plastic surgery to get married, and that she wants her to \u201cbe happy\u201d and \u201cuse your brain, because your daddy is a liar.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI felt pain for her and tried [to see] if there\u2019s any way we can get through to her that she doesn\u2019t need to do all that,\u201d Jones said.<\/p>\n

Jones said she was filmed some of the scenes in Oklahoma then was flown out to Washington state months later to film another. She was paid around $3,600 for her participation and was told that the flick would premiere overseas in November.<\/p>\n

But after filming wrapped, she worried about the girl and asked other congregants at her church to help pray for her.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were concerned,\u201d Jones said. \u201cWe were up there praying for her and asking God to help her and we were doing what we thought was the Christian thing to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

She said that she only learned that it was all ruse when her cousin showed her the trailer for the Amazon Prime movie last week.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was just kind of shocked and that it was that kind of movie,\u201d Jones said, adding that she wished producers came clean earlier.<\/p>\n

Her pastor has said that he believes Baron Cohen owes Jones an apology and to pay her better compensation for her role in the film.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would love to see him, if nothing else, on a Zoom call in a very lighthearted manner, \u2018we\u2019re sorry we pulled one over on you,\u2019 \u201d Scobey said \u2014 adding that a check would be nice, too, since Jones was laid off from her job as an insurance claims auditor.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, the pastor has set up a GoFundMe page to raise funds for Jones, who he calls the \u201cmoral compass\u201d of the film.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s just saying she got the short end of the stick, you love her around the world, so it would be a blessing if you donated,\u201d Scobey said.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
