Sarah Silverman Talked To Barack Obama About her Upcoming Nude Scene (VIDEO)

by Jeremy Taylor, posted Apr 4th 2011 6:00AM

Sarah Silverman on 'Piers Morgan Tonight'Sarah Silverman was a big backer of Barack Obama during the 2008 election, and because of that support she recently got to meet the President.

As the comedienne told 'Piers Morgan Tonight,' (Weeknights, 9PM ET on CNN), she ended up making their encounter awkward by saying something "so lame" that she wanted to grab it and put it back in her mouth.

What happened was that Obama asked her "What's next for you" and Silverman responded by blurting out "I'm going to be naked in a movie!"

After laughing hysterically at Silverman's retelling of her gaffe, Piers Morgan wondered how Obama reacted to it in real time.

"He defused the situation generously by saying 'Oh, you'll have to send me that'," Silverman recounted.

While Morgan found Obama's response to be "pervy," Silverman insisted that his request was just "levity."

Because you're probably wondering, the movie in which Silverman strips down is called 'Take This Waltz' and it will be released later this year.

When did we stop refering to our Presidents as just their last names! I didn't even vote for him and most likely won't in 2012, but I have the respect for him to refer to him as President Obama.
When was the last time you heard some one refer to President Washington as Washington, or President Lincoln as Lincoln?

The comments below regarding Obama might have been different if you had seed "Inside Job" - only to find out every president since Reagan has been involved in setting the stage for the economic crisis. Every politician has been corrupted.

Concerning Silverman, ever since her appearance on Star Trek Voyager, I have appreciated her as an actress, but don't care for her brand of humor. What I want to know is, is her scene coming up because it is a career move, for fun, or because the script calls for it? What is lame is that she doesn't give any details that gives insight into who she is or what her aspirations are, such as whether she views this scene as male chauvinism or female expression. Fans like to know these things; it gives them the opportunity to feel like they are a part of the actor's life.

'Bama would be a good actor. maybe silverstein can help get him a part...he's played President with incredible skill so many of us are hoping to see play other big parts...i don't know how anyone so unqualified can actually pretend to be the real deal; incredible to watch the game he plays.

Yes, because all first-time Presidents have had experience with the highest and/ or one of the highest seats of power in a country. Truly, I had no idea. That's like saying someone whose got credentials outside of work, whose has the knowledge, but little practical experience is unqualified for a job. Are we really limiting Presidency to that? If that is the case, George Washington should have had his people make a machine capable of granting immortality so that he could run the country forever. Because, you know, following first-time Presidents aren't qualified to run the country.

Imbecile.

If President George W. Bush had said that.....Do you think the Libbies would have accepted that it was just levity????

The question is: who really cares? People fail to realize that things like these blow over the general public's head.
