Celebrity Closeup: Sacha Baron Cohen

The very funny Sacha Baron Cohen was born in London, the middle child of three boys. His mother is from in Israel, and both of his parents are Jewish. Though raised in the religion and fluent in Hebrew, these days Sacha only attends synagogue about twice a year, though he says he tries to keep kosher. His wife, Australian actress Isla Fisher, also converted to Judaism before they wed in 2010.
