LOS ANGELES (UPI) -- Comedian Sarah Silverman said she was surprised
by the response her Britney Spears jokes got at the MTV Video Music
Awards show in Las Vegas this month.
"The joke that everyone was upset about -- me calling the kids
'adorable mistakes' -- was the most innocuous joke," Silverman told
USmagazine.com. "It never occurred to me that would be deemed hurtful
or over the line. I don't want to get into feuds with girls half my
age. I'm in it to be funny and not for the drama. It's embarrassing."
Asked what fans can expect when Season 2 of her Comedy Central show,
"The Sarah Silverman Program," premieres Oct. 3, Silverman said: "The
story lines are ridiculous. It's that contrast that makes the show
work -- absurdity played real."
The comedian said there is a chance Angelina Jolie will appear on the
show at some point.
"I met her on the lot and she was so cool. There is a chance she'll
show up in an episode," Silverman said. "I don't know why but I'm
seeing her in an Annie wig."
