Sarah Kate Silverman (born December 1, 1970) is an American comedian, writer, and actress. Although usually credited as Sarah Silverman, she is sometimes credited by her nickname Big S or Sarah ‘Big S’ Silverman. Her comedy deals with topical humor and satire, societal taboos, and controversial topics such as racism, sexism and religion.
Her comedy acts are sometimes performed from a caricatured or stereotypical Jewish-American princess perspective, in which, according to Village Voice writer Michael Musto, she mocks bigotry and ethnic or religious stereotypes by endorsing them ironically. Silverman was first noticed as a writer for and occasional performer on Saturday Night Live. She now stars in and produces The Sarah Silverman Program, which debuted February 1, 2007, on Comedy Central.
On January 31, 2008, she appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! to show him a special video she had made in honor of the show’s 5th anniversary. The video turned out to be a song called “I’m Fucking Matt Damon”, in which Matt Damon, a frequent butt of Kimmel’s jokes, also appeared and they alleged they were having an affair behind Kimmel’s back. According to People, the video “has become an instant YouTube hit.”
