Off limits for even Bruno?

While the R-rated comedy “Bruno” features elements and scenes that will probably offend just about everyone, the final version of the movie won’t include a scene mocking La Toya Jackson, the sister of the late Michael Jackson.
Originally, the film included a sequence in which the title character, played by Sacha Baron Cohen, made at least one joke about the late King of Pop — and then Bruno attempts to cajole La Toya into giving him Jackson’s contact information.

But the scene was cut from the film after news of Jackson’s death spread. A Universal Pictures spokesman said the edit was made “out of respect for the Jackson family.”
