Sarah Silverman will host this year's MTV Awards!!!



Sarah Silverman is set to host this year's MTV Movie Awards!

Sarah jokes about it saying ''Ever since I was a little girl, before it [MTV] even started in 1980 I said, 'Someday, I want there to be an all-music channel that gives out awards for movies. And I want to host that show."

The show will air live June 3 from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles.

How is Sarah preparing for her new gig?

''I'm getting ready,'' she said. ''I'm exercising every day and I do 10 push-ups, I do eight sit-ups and then I rinse off. ... I want to go just a little bit too far. I'm training for this the way what's-her-face trained for 'T2.'''

Saturday Night Live Documentary




NBC has ordered up another documentary on the history of “Saturday Night Live,” this time focusing on the show's up-and-down ride through the 1990s.

“Saturday Night Live in the '90s: Pop Culture Nation” is the third in a series of films about the late-night institution by director-producer Kenneth Bowser. The previous two, focusing on the show's early years and the tribulations of the 1980s, aired in 2005.

As with the past two docs, “Pop Culture Nation” will be filled with interviews from cast members and writers, including Chris Rock, Mike Myers, Tina Fey and Will Ferrell. It will also feature two little-used players who have since gone on to much wider fame:
Sarah Silverman and David Koechner.

“Saturday Night Live in the '90s” is scheduled to air
May 6 on NBC.
