Sarah Sherman brought chaotic couture and unfiltered comedy energy to Late Night with Seth Meyers while serving a head-turning fashion moment in an electrifying Ashish Holi rainbow beaded fringe mini dress. Inspired by the vibrant Festival of Colors, the dazzling halterneck design featured cascading hand-sewn glass bead fringe layered over a sequined georgette base, creating nonstop movement, sparkle, and drama with every step. Equal parts disco dream and avant-garde glamour, the look was pure fashion fantasy.
Fresh off the explosive season finale of Saturday Night Live, Sarah had the audience in stitches as she recounted the surreal moment music legend Paul McCartney casually tugged on her mullet backstage after her hilarious “Wings-era” inspired Weekend Update segment. According to Sarah, the former Beatle not only knew her name, but also asked whether her iconic mullet was real a sentence few people on Earth will ever get to say out loud.
The conversation quickly spiraled into delightfully bizarre territory as Sarah discussed her now-viral sketch with Will Ferrell, where the duo portrayed the hilariously inappropriate “Nudeman’s” characters. Sarah joked about the unexpected silence that fell over the room once everyone realized the sketch would involve her very real backside instead of a prosthetic. From tattoo cover-ups to awkward wardrobe fittings, she embraced every chaotic second of it.
Known by fans as “Sarah Squirm,” the comedian leaned fully into the nickname’s grotesque legacy while promoting her new HBO special, Sarah Squirm: Live and in the Flesh. She hilariously admitted that making audiences uncomfortable is practically her love language, tracing her darkly absurd humor back to childhood pranks from her mother and grandmother.
One of the night’s most jaw-dropping stories came when Sarah revealed her grandmother once removed an eye for religious reasons and frequently used the prosthetic eyeballs to terrify family members for fun. Sarah laughed while explaining that she eventually inherited the collection of prosthetic eyes along with vintage bug-filled Bakelite jewelry from another relative proving eccentricity truly runs in the family.
Between outrageous family stories, fearless comedy, and one of the most visually striking looks of the night, Sarah Sherman once again proved why she’s become one of comedy’s most unpredictable and fashion-forward rising stars.
