Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin has been Punk'd!

Marc-Antoine Audette and Sebastien Trudel, also known as the Masked Avengers, a radio duo famous for prank calls in Montreal, released a recording of a six minute call to the Alaska Governor, who thought she was speaking with French President Nicolas Sarkozy. During the conversation, the impersonators discuss the "Joe le Plumber," killing animals, and Carla Bruni's skills in the bedroom.

"One of my favorite activities is to hunt, too," French comedian Audette told Palin in an over the top accent. "I just love killing those animals! Taking away life, that is so fun." (Listen to the embarrassing exchange here).

"We should go hunting together," Palin said. "We can have a lot of fun together while we're getting work done. We could kill two birds with one stone."

During the conversation, Audette confessed his wife, Carla Bruni, a singer and former model, was jealous to hear Sarkozy would be speaking to Palin.

"Give her a big hug for me," Palin said.

He then went on to describe Bruni as "hot in bed" and said she'd composed a French song for Palin called "Lipstick on a Pig." Audette said in English the song was about Joe the Plumber.

He also praised her Hustler "documentary" titled Nailin' Paylin.

"That was really edgy," Audette said.

"Well, good," Palin replied.

Audette told The Canadian Press it wasn't an easy feat to get the interview.

"It took a lot of work," he said. "We had to go through the Secret Service, the people in her entourage. It's the biggest coup so far. We're proud to add [this prank] to our top hits."

Audette compared Palin to Britney Spears who he has also crank called.

"I wanted to see how [Palin] was on an intellectual level," Audette told the paper. "You can see that she's, well, not really brilliant."

Palin's team released a statement on Saturday.

"Governor Palin was mildly amused to learn that she had joined the ranks of heads of state, including President Sarkozy, and other celebrities in being targeted by these pranksters," said spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt.

    Sha-non, even though Obama is in, I still have apprehensions about him. He needs to keep the USA safe which will be hard when he may remove the troops from the Middle East! Dems. traditionally cut the military &/or feel that troops don't need to "stay the course." UGH! Stay tuned!

    (Cont'd)Did I forget to add that he'll raise taxes to pay for a national health plan, etc? Where else does the money come from? McCain/Palin are better since they are qualified in all areas & have more experience in govt. He may be in now, but he could be out if he's ineffective!

    (Cont'd) Oprah & Jesse Jackson are seen wiping away tears as if they're only now getting an opportunity for money & fame.They'd probably want BO to take the place of Lincoln on the $5 bill. Ha! When folks who trusted him see that they're let down, they'll think twice about 2012!

    (Cont'd) He has a shady past with people he shouldn't have associated with. He has little or no documentation on himself. He only had a few yrs. as a Senator. Some folks teared up when he got in. Were you not a good & valuable person before he got in? Talk about dramatic people!

    (Cont'd)I say give him the boot! He'll cut our military in half, break bread with our darkest of enemies, "spread the wealth" for those who "spread their legs" & have too many kids. He really means that as to enact a Marxist, welfare program.He's got many believing he's a"Messiah!"

    Amy, I totally agree with you. The Dems. put him in the Pres. spot without knowing anything about this little green upstart. He's a smooth talker, but a no-nothing. He'll run this country down the tubes. I was shocked & morified when I saw that he won. Some say give him a chance.
