I'm not sure there is any name more common than Sarah (among males or females) and because of the great number of women named Sarah, it's no surprise there are a lot of "famous Sarahs" in the world. In this silly little article I take a gander at three of the most famous women named Sarah in the universe!
#1 Sarah Palin: Due to John McCain's choice of Palin as his VP candidate during the last presidential election she is probably the most famous Sarah in the world. And with it looking like she may try to run for President herself in 2012 that's not likely to change anytime soon.
While Palin was a laughing stock to most due to her lack of basic intelligence and distorted world view she was and still is quite popular with the social conservatives that make up the core of the shrinking Republican party. She is quite popular among the group of people who still, after everything that's happened, think that former President George W. Bush was a great President!
Luckily for the rest of the country the amount of people who hold this view is not nearly as high as it used to be and it would take a miracle (or a tragedy depending your point of view) for her to get elected as President of the United States in 2012.
#2 Sarah Silverman: Yes the character she plays in her TV shows and in her movies is an act. She's not really like that. While Ms. Silverman's schtick can get a little old sometimes, overall I find her quite refreshing and very funny. She's certainly among the best Sarahs in the world in my opinion. It doesn't hurt that she's hot.
#3 Sarah Connor: Unlike the other Sarahs on this list, this is a fictional character. She's John Connor's mother in the Terminator movies. And she's the main character in the television program Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles where she's played by Lena Headey. In the original Terminator movies she was played by Linda Hamilton. Of course the Terminator himself was played by the future Governor of California, Arnold Schwartzeneggar.
