A woman who filed a lawsuit against Sacha Baron Cohen for allegedly leaving her permanently disabled her during filming for outrageous new comedy Bruno is changing her story.

Richelle Olson filed suit against Cohen and studio chiefs at NBC Universal, claiming she was injured in a stunt at a bingo hall in Palmdale, California in 2007.

She claimed the comic — in character as gay fashionista Bruno — used “vulgar and offensive language” when he took to the stage to call the numbers during the charity bingo game – and when she tried to snatch the microphone from him she reports a “physical struggle ensued.”

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Olson alleged the incident had left her wheelchair bound after she suffered “brain bleeds,” but changed her tune after producers at NBC Universal unearthed footage they insisted proved Cohen “never touched” the alleged victim – Olson and her legal team seemingly quickly took a different route.

She has now dropped her claims of assault and battery, opting to instead sue Cohen for “emotional damage.”
