"This was the real deal, folks.\r\nRyan Seacrest was not in on the joke when Sacha Baron Cohen (as &amp;quot;The General&amp;quot;) dumped an urn of ashes all over the E! News host&amp;apos;s Burberry tuxedo on the red carpet before Sunday&amp;apos;s Academy Awards.\r\n\r\n&amp;#xA0;&amp;quot;I definitely did not know that he was going to do that!&amp;quot; Seacrest, 37, said Monday on On Air with Ryan Seacrest. &amp;quot;He comes over, and I asked him a couple of questions, but . . . You know that feeling in your gut.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nIn character as the despotic ruler of upcoming comedy The Dictator, Cohen, 40, told Seacrest he was carrying the ashes of late North Korean tyrant Kim Jong-Il.  &amp;quot;You feel like, &amp;apos;This is going too normally.&amp;apos;&amp;apos;&amp;quot; Seacrest recounted.\r\nSeacrest knew trouble was coming when he &amp;quot;saw the urn coming up.  It was getting closer to my chest, and then it tipped over, and it wasn&amp;apos;t the wind. He spilt it on my tuxedo!&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nHis saving grace? The advice of his mom Connie to &amp;quot;always make sure to bring two jackets, because you never know what&amp;#x2019;s going to happen!&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
