Good news for all you Ron Paul fans. Looks like he'll have a small role as a potential love-interest to Sacha Baron Cohen's character Bruno in the eponymously named film, which was recently screened, in part, for some critics…

The scene with Paul, filmed in early 2008, occurs about halfway through the movie, after Bruno gets the idea that you have to make a sex tape to become famous…

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, a light blows out on the set. Bruno apologizes for the technical difficulties and suggests that he and Paul wait in the other room while the crew fixes the light. The other room, it turns out, is a bedroom.

The lighting is low, and the film is now grainy — not unlike a sex tape — as it cuts to a hidden spy camera. There's a spread of Champagne and strawberries and caviar on a table. Bruno tells Paul to make himself comfortable. Paul sits down on the bed. Bruno turns on some music and starts dancing. Paul is visibly uneasy but doesn't say anything at first.

(Go over to Slate if you want more spoliers.)

A spokeswoman for Paul confirmed that the episode took place but declined to provide details. "We don't want it to distract from his message," said press secretary Rachel Mills. "Now is the time when people need to be listening to him on economic issues."

I totally agree with her. Especially about hoping we get to see his wang in the movie. (You gotta read between the lines.)
