Sarah Silverman Disses Britney at 2007 MTV VMA

Posted on September 10, 2007 at 10:45 am (PST)

Sarah Silverman may have flubbed her joke about Britney’s kids being "adorable mistakes," but Sarah made up for it when she made 50 Cent smile, and almost made Paris Hilton cry. Today Britney is adding Sarah to her list of excuses for a poor performance. Days before Britney performed concerns were already being voiced about her lack of rehearsing, and drinking till 3 a.m. Sarah’s performance wasn’t very funny, in fact, I laughed harder when I hit my thumb with a hammer this morning. Why did I have a hammer? I was trying to kill a fly, and I couldn’t find a fly swatter. Why would I do that? The same reason guys don’t ask for directions. Whatever works, right? Later I’ll be doing guy stuff, like patching holes in my walls. My work never seems to end.

    Come on people………Britney Spears has lost it and totally sucks. If you watched the show at all….you would have noticed that there was no way Britney could have used Sara Silverman’s comments as an excuse for her poor performance….Sara Silverman didn’t even make the comments until after Britney’s performance was already through. Think back to logic people………this was supposedly a live show and Britney was first on the stage. Sara Silverman did not make the comments about Britney until the performance was already over.

    Sarah Silverman is a terrible hack, Britney could’ve been a LOT worse and calling anyone’s BABIES mistakes on national television is out of line. Silverman is just pathetic…

    I guess People have no idea that this kind of events need at list couple of weeks planning. I am not a Fan, but still its unfair what happened to Her. Obviously MTV LOW RATINGS FORECAST lead them to organize a trap to increase audience using Her. For Bad or For Good They knew that Britney would bring people`s attention. SO SAD.

    I read somewhere that Britney over heard Sara Silverman during rehearsal or something like minutes before going on stage, and asked MTV to take the part about her children out of her performance which obviously did not happen…

    I think this performance wasnt very funny, and some of the jokes were really mean, she’s standing there making fun of everyone but wouldnt like it if they were making fun of her. Plus she called Britney Spears’ kids a mistake, like honestly…. thats seriously, i bet she was a mistake too. I hate that, it’s not nice. PLUS i think Britney has guts to do what she did because even through all the bad comments and negativity she’s been getting she still sticks her head up high and she’s still looking after her kids. So what, she went to rehab, did some bad things… like get drunk and all that, OH WOOOWWWWWW big deaalll its not like she’s the only person on Earth thats ever done that, it’s just cuz she was a famous star and all eyes were on her, so the first thing that goes wrong everyone gives her the bad name. Second of all people need to grow up and get their own things to say, just cuz someone says she has baby fat or couldnt dance or lalala doesn’t mean you have to say it, it’s like Monkey See Monkey Do. People shouldn’t hate her cuz of what she’s done to herself, people should hate her cuz of what she’s done to them, and so far, I didn’t hear about her coming to anyone’s house and attacking them or swearing at them or shooting them. There’s no need for the ignorance… Third.. Paris Hilton did her crime and paid the time, get over it, that was like months ago and people are still on it? Like damn.

    Just had to get that off my chest =) lol

    The awards program raped Brit for ratings and laughs. Silverman is a pimp. What a set-up this was…KARMA y’all……KARMA I learned one thing from this show….NEVER watch Sara Silverman

    While I don’t particularly care for Sarah’s sort of comedy, she doesn’t make up the things she says, she just uses the artist’s own blunders against them. If she calls them on their own stupidity and comments they’ve made in the tabloids, she shouldn’t be blamed for throwing things back in their faces.

    It does not surprise me that they used Brit to get ratings. Sarah Silverman is not a comedian she is a vulgar wanna be comedian who preys on the young Hollywood scene to get a few cheap laughs…That is not good comedy. She needs to get a life. In regards to Brit’s body: I also know that after you have children you are not even allowed to work out your abs as hard for months…she has had to work hard to stay in shape. As far as the lip sync performance goes…come on!!! Madonna, Paula Abdul, and Janet Jackson all do it or have done it. If you dance and sing you almost have to for the BEST quality performance. If you don’t believe me try jumping and singing at the same time…not too easy is it?

    Siverman is hilarious!!! I’m glad Vai gets her humor, she’s only telling it like it is, and she pokes fun at herself, Silverman is a girl who can take a joke.
    Keep it up Sarah, there are many of us who like it. Luckily there are the Paris’, Brit’s, Lindsay’s for Sarah to keep coming up with material.

    sure…but poking fun at someone does not take talent.

    Well Ms Silverman was only repeating what Britney said months and months ago about her babies being mistakes. This was a sworn statement from a nanny.
    Personally I thought Sarah hit the nail on the head and found it funny as hell. The look on the faces of audience members was priceless. That is entertaining and comedy at its best.

    Wow, that was almost as bad as britney’s lip-synching. Seriously, she has terrible taste insulting Britney Spears, a singer who was rightfully insane nervous that she was being judged by several million people after acting like an idiot for several months.

    And that lip thing…..god, she’s just rude and obnoxious.
