I love
Sarah Silverman, even more ever since the infamous Matt Damon video :) She's the most recent in a long line of celebrities to say she won't get married. Sarah spoke recently
with People about her relationship with
Jimmy Kimmel. The two comedians have been together for five years but have no plans to walk down the alter anytime soon, or ever, for that matter.
"I'll be honest, we have it good. I don't want the government involved in our love. When my friends get married I think it's romantic, I cry, whatever. But it's not for me."
They do want kids, however.
"I might adopt, but we're going to wait. If you're going to have kids, you need to have time to give them undivided attention."
She also mentioned that she's nervous to attend her fitting for her outfit for the Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute Gala. Her gown is going to be by Dolce and Gabana.
"Who knows if they'll have my size!" she jokes. "I'm a size eight - “ that's fat in the fashion world!"
What do you think about the whole not getting married trend in Hollywood? I think it's a lot easier for a celebrity to be able to do that because unlike people in the real world, they don't have to worry about insurance coverage for their significant other and marriage related financial issues.
both are idiots!
I was with my husband for over 10 years before we got married. I was never against it necessarily but it never felt like something we wanted to do (the actual wedding planning, yada yada). But, we did finally decide we were mentally prepared for it and I'm glad we did. Nothing is really different but there is more of a commitment between us and the way people perceive us.
I agree ick. She is crude and unfunny. I did enjoy Jimmy's answer to her Matt Damon bit but I have no interest in Sarah Silverman. It probably doesn't help their marriage fears that he left his first wife for her -- she probably figures he would do it again.
I think each to their own - what ever works for them.
When people say they want to be totally prepared for a baby I think they are living in a dream world. Who the hell is ever completely 100 % ready for a baby??? There will always be something coming up be it work, family, money etc. Thats a huge cop out I think.
How the hell did she make the sexiest list? hahahahahahahahaha Now thats funny!!!!
With the amount of divorces around, marriage has been rendered absolutely meaningless.
He must not want to marry her.
Since the divorce rate in Hollywood is around 90%. They're probably pretty smart not to take the chance.
i have no desire to be married, never have... some of the guys i've dated agree, some think i'm lying to them and some don't understand, but at the end of the day its not something I "need", similar to what Sarah said... as for insurance, etc. most companies allow you to cover a partner, etc. if you need to, but even then its cheaper for your and your employer if you're covered on your own insurance provider... assuming both people are employed
"mel said:
He must not want to marry her."
Exactly what I'm thinking!
its such a double standard when peopel think the only reason a woman doesn't want to get married is because the guys doesn't want. Just because some women were socialized to dream about their wedding night doesn't mean other women out there want that. my partner and I made the decision together not to get married precisely for the same reason Sarah Silverman stated. we have a domestic partnership, which means that in our state we are recognized as having a civil union. we introduce ourselves to people as husband and wife, but we don't have an actual wedding certificate. the certificate it completely meaningless as far we're both concerned.
I'm married, but I can understand where Sarah is coming from. Marriage is not for everybody.
she is not funny
she is mean and nasty
poor girl is so sad about herself that she trys to make other people feel bad about themselfs
she sucks!!
She discovered his ****-MATE!!
I also don't like the assumption that if a couple doesn't get married, it's because the man doesn't want to. I left two good men because they wanted to get married and I didn't. I've been with my current guy for 12 years and we have a child; he has proposed a few times but understands that while I love him completely and respect marriage, I'm personally not interested in the institution of marriage. Like me, he gets sick of those who assume he's the roadblock and that of course I, the woman, am desperate to get married (wholly untrue, and not anyone's business). But for the most part, people who don't know us well simply assume we are married, and that's fine -- they can think whatever they want. I try very hard not to judge people's marriage choices and think those of us who choose not to get married (whatever their reasons) deserve the same.
A lot of people think they can by-pass financial responsibility by not getting married. Most states recognize common-law marriages if a couple has been together for any length of time. Let's not forget the infamous palimony suits that have been won by ex, unmarried companions of celebrities. Unless there is a contract in place that specifies what happens in the event of a breakup, things can still get messy, especially if children are involved. In the meantime, the best thing to do would be for both of them to keep their finances and personal belongings separate. This makes the breakup very clean.
