Comedian of the Week: Sarah Silverman

I really like Sarah Silverman. She has a very warped sense of humor. She's always pushing the edge of good taste. I think the only comedian with a remotely similar style might be Sacha Baron Cohen (Ali G, Borat, Bruno) albeit she says the unnerving things, he acts them out.

Story behind the clips for non-US readers: Jimmy Kimmel has a US talk show with a running gag that he is going to have Matt Damon on every show, but there's never enough time.

Sarah Silverman, Kimmel's girlfriend at the time, made this song and video with Matt Damon called "I'm f**king Matt Damon". Pure Classic comedy.

Now, as a publicity stunt, this was pure marketing gold. It became an internet phenomena making Sarah a household name.



Kimmel extended the punchline by creating a spoof counterattack song and video called: "I'm f**king Ben Affleck".



Stay Inspired!

Cheers,
