Sarah Silverman has revealed that she is not interested in getting into a new relationship.

OK reports that the comedian told Howard Stern's radio show that she is happy to be single, having split from Family Guy producer and writer Alec Sulkin late last year.

"I just want to be free. I don't want to be anybody's girlfriend. I don't want to be responsible for anybody's happiness," Silverman said.

"I just want to be able to love people. I still totally adore him, you know. There isn't anybody else. I'm not looking. And uh, I'll totally have sex with [him], basically. And that's what we do."

The 40-year-old also revealed that she enjoys smoking marijuana, although she is unable to work while on it.

She added: "But when all work is done, on vacation, I like a little pot."

Last night was the premiere of the new USA Network series Fairly Legal, starring celebrity actress Sarah Shahi, which begs the question many have been asking: Who is Sarah Shahi? –

[Jan. 21]

Thursday night marked the premier of the new USA Network series Fairly Legal, a legal drama starring celebrity actress Sarah Shahi, who portrays a lawyer at her late father’s law firm who decides to become a mediator.

While Fairly Legal garnered mixed reviews, it still got more than enough people wondering about the show because of its star, celebrity actress Sarah Shahi. However, Sarah Shahi is still relatively unknown to many viewers. Which begs the question: Who is Sarah Shahi?



WHO IS SARAH SHAHI?

Celebrity actress Sarah Shahi was born on January 10, 1980 in Euless, Texas to parents Abbas Shahi and Mahmonir Shahi. Sarah Shahi is of Persian descent, her father being born in Iran.

After earning her degree at Southern Methodist University, Sarah Shahi tried out and was accepted as a member of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders.
Capitalizing on her success as a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader, Sarah Shahi moved to Hollywood, and after getting bit parts in several different TV shows, she gained the role that really put her on the map, playing the role of Carmen de la Pica Morales in the Showtime original series The L Word.

Playing the role of a Mexican-American DJ in The L Word, which followed the lives of people in the LGBT community, Sarah Shahi starred as Carmen de la Pica for three seasons, ending her run in 2007.

Following her role in The L Word, celebrity actress Sarah Shahi was chosen to play the role of homicide detective and recovering alcoholic and addict Dani Reese in the NBC series Life. Although Life was cancelled after two seasons, Sarah Shahi gained much acclaim for her role as a gritty, street-smart detective.

Following the cancellation of Life, celebrity actress Sarah Shahi was selected to play the role of Kate Reed, a lawyer turned mediator in the USA Network original series Fairly Legal. The show was originally titled Facing Kate, with the title changed by USA last year. The show debuted on USA Network on Thursday Jan. 20, 2011.

Celebrity actress Sarah Shahi has also graced the pages of several magazines, including Men’s Health and Maxim, and featured once again in Maxim in their February 2011 issue.

Celebrity actress is married to celebrity actor Steve Howey, whom she met while guest starring on the TV series Reba. The celebrity couple has one child, William, born in July 2009.

Celebrity actress is married to celebrity actor Steve Howey, whom she met while guest starring on the TV series Reba. The celebrity couple has one child, William, born in July 2009.

When she started to work, actress Sarah Shahi was as naive as they come. When it came to life, she was wise beyond her years. Growing up in the tiny town of Euless, Texas, she used to imagine what she would do if she were in the place of TV's protagonists. And she always nurtured a compulsion to perform in musical theater.



She wangled a position with the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders, though she'd never led a cheer in her life. And when director Robert Altman came to town to film "Dr. T and the Women," he took a shine to her. But she had no clue who he was.



At home it was a different matter. Her father was a drug abuser and she remembers she was 8 when her sister was born. "My dad took my mother to the hospital. He came back, picked my brother and I up. He filled a trash bag full of clothes and canned food. He dropped us off at the hospital, and then he didn't come back.



"At 8 I felt like I had to grow up right then. It was not like consciously I was aware of what he was doing. I thought he was packing clothes for my mom, but I remember they had this dinner for the moms in the hospital who'd just given birth. It was for the husbands and wives. I looked around and all the other husbands were there, except for my mom's. So I sat with her. I realized he's not coming back. It's just us. I have to grow up. And I stopped being a kid after that."



It's that combination of innocence and savvy that makes Shahi so good in USA's new "Fairly Legal," premiering on Thursday. Shahi plays a moxie little lawyer who knows the score but doesn't play the game.



After co-starring roles in "Alias," "Life," "The L-Word," and having her baby boy, who's 18 months old, Shahi says she's ready for anything.



"I loved being pregnant. I felt like mother Earth, loving any living creature. I felt I could talk to the squirrels. I know there are tons of women out there where pregnancy isn't easy for them. But it worked for me. To give life, to have another human being live off you, I felt like a woman. I felt so sexy. I laughed every day and cried every day and loved every moment of it. I gave birth at home without any kind of drugs, it was me, a birthing coach, my husband and my mid-wife. I trusted my body and I trusted my baby. I would talk to him before hand. And my husband delivered him and that moment I felt I earned my stripes in a big way."



It seems that Shahi never takes the easy way. Once she had decided to pursue a career, she and her mom packed up her cherry-red pickup and headed for L.A. She had no idea how she was going to conquer show biz. Her mother stayed three days and was on her way when Sarah had to figure out how to make a living.



It was only a couple of months before she landed a tiny part as a cheerleader. "In the beginning when my dinners were coming from the 76 across the street, little cans of tuna, the struggle is hard, especially in L.A. when all around you are images of people enjoying the glamorous lifestyle. There are certain aspects of my career that still trouble me," she says.



One of those was being a new mom and carrying the lead role in "Fairly Legal." The days were long and sometimes she'd see her son for only 30 minutes a day. Shahi treasures every second with her family. Married for two years to actor Steve Howey (he was on "Reba" for six years) Shahi says, "In our hearts we could be school teachers in the Midwest. We'd been together for seven years, and I knew who I was getting."



The typical family life had not been part of her upbringing. "I remember I loved going over to my friend's house who had the mom and the dad, because I loved that. I loved being surrounded by the Norman Rockwell version of the family."



The day she finally decided to disconnect from her father was another obstacle.



"I was 24. I was supporting myself. I was on my own. That day was when they talk about the notches in your belt, that was a big one because I remember the last conversation I had with him, that was not him. He was a crazy man. It was sad how quickly I realized that, it was so apparent. No matter who they are, your biological parents or not, I do believe we pick our parents. I believe in the spiritual world. I believe my child came to me for a reason and that my child came to my husband and I for a reason. And I came to my parents for a reason, and it was the moment when I said, 'I never had a father, I'm not going to have a father. I'm not going to stop loving him. But this man is not my dad' And that was a huge adult moment for me, and I felt a big loss.



"American Idol" returns Wednesday with new judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez and without the acidic Simon Cowell to keep everyone honest. Lopez admits their act will be unlike Simon's. "We bring a different perspective, I think, than any of the other previous judges really have before, especially if you're speaking about Simon specifically. We just do," she says. "We're artists. We've been up there. We've auditioned. We've been through the ranks. ... I've been in this business a long time too. There's nothing like having that type of discussion with another artist to help you grow. And at the end of the day, that's what we're there for, to help the kids either move on to the next level or break the news to them that they're not going on to the next level."



Betty White warns it's best not to tread in spiked heels if you're guesting on "Saturday Night Live." "Don't wear those heels if you do it, because between sketches, they grab you by the hand, into a closet about the size of this table, and somebody's taking off your clothes, and somebody else is putting it on while the makeup girl is doing this, (powdering her face) and the wig person is taking off one wig and putting the other on, and then they drag you back on stage, and you think, 'What sketch are we doing?' It's panic time, but it's good panic."



She's a disgruntled, disillusioned lawyer who finds the wine glass always teetering on half empty, but writing Kathy Bates into the role on NBC's "Harry's Law" was a natural. Of course, the role was originally written for a man. But creator, executive producer David E. Kelley ("Ally McBeal") says, "We saw a lot of good actors but no one that truly embodied the role to our satisfaction.



"So we said, 'OK, well let's think about a woman then.' And as soon as we opened the field up to women, Kathy's name came up first and fast. And everybody unanimously was on board with that.



"The trick was getting Kathy. And we were lucky enough ... to get her to read the script and she signed on board. The adjustment of the character really was surprisingly very little. I mean, the character originally conceived was this card-carrying curmudgeon brilliant lawyer but one who had become disillusioned with the law. And that truthfully could have been a woman just as easily as a man. So the adjustments were very, very small."

Georgetown-bred Whitney Cummings is a rising star in the realm of Dirty-Mouthed But Hot Lady Comics -- more intense than Chelsea Handler and more feminine than Sarah Silverman, declares a fan in Dan Zak's profile -- and she's playing bigger and bigger rooms. But "insecurity is proportional to the size of the venue. With two sitcoms and a talk show in the works, the venue -- and the stakes -- has never been bigger...she now must constantly raise the bar to stay hot." Oh, and don't call her beautiful. "I [bleeping] hate that."

Sarah Palin has intervened in the crisis in Korea, calling into the Glenn Beck radio show to give her view. She may be the leader of the free world at some point. There is global interest in her pronouncements. So what’s her foreign policy prescription this time?

“Obviously, we’ve got to stand with our North Korean allies.” It was pointed out to her that the U.S. is on the side of the South Koreans and she must have meant “South” not “North”. She said: “Er, yes.”

How might one best explain her latest statement? Several possibilities spring to mind:

a) Palin was concerned that she had been lagging in the gaffe-of-the-year stakes, and threw in this as a late entry to deprive Christine O’Donnell or the UK’s Gordon Brown of the prize.

b) It can be tough to tell the difference between north and south? East, west; left, right. We all get mixed up sometimes.

c) It can be tough to tell the difference between a communist tyranny and a freedom loving democracy? Er… no.

d) It’s a conservative media plot?

I would be interested to hear any other interpretations from readers.

Ohio - One of four people from an Ohio missing persons case has been rescued in good condition and her captor has been taken into custody. That suspect has a criminal record with a conviction for arson in Steamboat Springs back in 2000.



Sarah Maynard, 13, was found bound and gagged in a basement in Mount Vernon, Ohio, about ten miles from her home. Police believe she was under the control of 30-year-old Matthew Hoffman since Wednesday.

Hoffman has been arrested and charged with one count of kidnapping, although other charges could be filed as the investigation continues. Sarah's mother, her younger brother, and a friend of the family are still missing. Police hope Hoffman will help find them.

"As far as knowing the family, we're uncertain whether he knew them or they knew him. It's obvious that he found his way to her and to their home," Knox County Sheriff David Barber said.

Barber says he is not an ex-boyfriend of either woman, and he believes Hoffman can lead them to the other three people missing.

Barber also says reports that a body bag was taken from Hoffman's home are completely false.

LeAnn Rimes' former husband has moved on.

Dean Sheremet proposed to his live-in girlfriend Sarah Silver with an antique 1950s three-carat ring on Friday morning, US Weekly reported.

As for Rimes, who ditched the Nobu 57 chef for her on-screen co-star Eddie Cibrian last year?

She's thrilled!

"Congrats to @deansheremet and @sarah_silver on your engagement! A little birdie told me the happy news last night," the country music star tweeted Saturday. "Wishes for a life full of happiness."

Sheremet and Silver, a photographer, are planning a summer wedding in New York City, sources told US Weekly.

Rimes and her new love were rumored to be engaged last week after a Halloween photo of Cibrian jokingly proposing to her surfaced, but she promised fans she had no new ring on her finger.

"Ok, I've about had it with the lack of "reporting" with E News," she tweeted at the time, after the network reported she was ready to tie the knot again.

For Rimes, a happily engaged ex may take some of the heat off of the starlet, whose fans are still furious at her for the affair. In October, Shape magazine readers trashed the fitness magazine for putting Rimes on the cover, saying she was a bad role model.

Rimes and Cibrian had an affair on the set of the Lifetime film "Northern Lights" in March of 2009. She officially split from Sheremet in July.

"The truth is that we're human beings. We make mistakes and we learn from them, but we're human. We fell in love," Cibrian, 37, told ABC's "All Access Nashville" last week. "We're talking about something that's over a year, year and-a-half old, really and we're still together and we're madly in love."
