Actor Sacha Baron Cohen's new movie, "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm," has been surrounded by controversy since before it aired. But some viewers have fallen in love with an unlikely star of the film.

Oklahoma City native, Jeanise Jones was featured in the film as a kind babysitter for Borat's fictional 15-year-old daughter.

Recently, Cohen made a $100,000 donation to Ebenezer Baptist Church, the church that Jones attends.

Cohen said it is to help the community and the church that has been housing those affected by the recent ice storm, as hospitals in the area have been overrun.

Jones said when filming the movie, she was told she was taking part in a documentary about child brides.
