Sarah Silverman Burns Mississippi

Posted Jul 27th 2009 12:10AM by TMZ Staff

Sarah Silverman is always down for a scholastic challenge, but when we hit her up with an impromptu spelling test at LAX this weekend -- someone forgot how many crooked letters it takes to spell Mississippi!

She did spell it correctly the second time around -- but 13-year-old Kavya Shivashankar didn't need a second chance when she locked down the Scripps National Spelling Bee championship back in May ... and her word was "Laodicean."

1. Ahahaha!! How is TMZ busting on Sarah Silverman for her spelling when the word "her" isn't spelled correctly in this news item. FAIL.

2. You place a video making fun of her for not spelling a word right. Yet, in the last sentence you say "and here word was Laodicean", pretty sure it is supposed to be "and her word was Lacodicean".

9. Is there anyone in the TMZ newsroom with more than an Associates Degree from some wackadoodle Community College? Seriously? And you want to play 'match wits' with people. Wow.

13. I understand comics have to be edgy and a lot of their material is for shock value, but I suspect if this gal weren't Hebrew, she'd be working in a Walgreen's somewhere. Not funny, not smart, not cute.
