Sarah Silverman is a joker. That’s what comedians do. That’s why it’s hard to tell if she was kidding when she told E! News host Giuliana Rancic she had smuggled weed into toe SAG Awards on Saturday evening.

It was technically her boyfriend that Sarah Silverman claims was holding her weed at the 2016 awards show.
“My boyfriend is smuggling it in his rectum!” she said.
While chatting with Giuliana Rancic, Sarah Silverman recalled a prior Emmy win. She told an E! News host at the 2014 Emmy Awards that she had pot in her purse, and felt that even though she won, her admission overshadowed the entire event for her.
On Saturday night, she had no intention of being overshadowed.
“I didn’t bring a purse this time,” Sarah Silverman told Giuliana Rancic.
That’s when she claimed her boyfriend was smuggling her weed for her.
Of course it’s quite unlikely that Masters of Sex star Michael Sheen had Sarah Silverman’s pot in his rectum.

What a perfect ruse, however. You can bet that no one checked to be sure.
Sarah Silverman drew many eyes in her direction on Saturday night, and it likely had nothing to do with what she and Michael Sheen may or may not have had on their persons. One reason is the fake mustache she wore as she served as one of the show’s presenters.
The second reason is that Silverman rocked a fitted Vivienne Westwood gown–made by the same designer that made Sex and the City character Carrie Bradshaw’s wedding gown.
