F(r)at Guy Suing Borat - Identity Found

As most of you already know, two of the frat guys seen in the recent Borat movie are suing the studio. They claim the producers coerced them to drink excessively and tricked them into signing the release waiver. The two frat boys are only named as John Doe I and John Doe II in the suit in an attempt to protect what little dignity they have left.

The sneaky investigators at The Smoking Gun have searched out one of the John Does' identity. Here's what Defamer had to say:
The Smoking Gun have identified one of the frat boys suing the makers of the Borat movie as Justin Seay, 24, whom you may recall as the portliest good ol' boy of the bunch. TSG has posted 8 photos from his MySpace profile, each featuring Seay in various stages of apparent shit-facedness, and always with a drink in his hand. Taken together, they suggest a fun-loving and irrepressible people-person, though they also provide overwhelming visual evidence that works against Seay's claims that he was coerced by producers into the heavy drinking that would ultimately make him do and say foolish and offensive things in a hit Hollywood comedy.
Tsk tsk. It really doesn't seem wise to bring a lawsuit against a successful studio if your MySpace profile advertises what a lush you are.
