Silverman at the Helm of 'MTV Movie Awards'

Sarah Silverman, comedienne du jour, has a potty mouth. Mark Burnett, reality tv kingpin, has balls the size of watermelons. Put them together and the MTV viewership is in for one wild ride during the live telecast of the 2007 MTV Movie Awards on June 3. Live. Live. Live.

If MTV execs are sweatin' this sure-as-shit spectacle in the making, their not lettin' on. Like a proud momma, Christina Norman MTV president is offering up praise for the risque Silverman, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. Its likely this will be a train wreck worth watching, and if episodes of Intervention are any indication, enabling parental figures are key to the equation.

While Jessica Alba was an audience draw at the 2006 MTV Movie Awards for obvious reasons, Silverman has a two-fold approach -- gutter-floating sludge nuggets of humor and her looks are nothin' to shake a stick at. Delightful.
