Watch Tina Fey Bring Back Her Sarah Palin Impression

Kyle Dowling — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 16:08:24 +0000

She’s back! At least, for just a few minutes. If you’ve been scouring YouTube for Tina Fey‘s famed Sarah Palin impression you no longer have to look to four years ago. Luckily, the ‘30 Rock‘ creator and former ‘SNL‘ cast member/writer made a recent appearance on James Lipton’s famed ‘Inside The Actors Studio.’ During their interview, [...]

'Admission' Review

Jordan Hoffman — Wed, 20 Mar 2013 14:12:15 +0000

Let's not kid ourselves about this. Part of consuming Hollywood entertainment is that, on some level, we like these people. It's strange, but I probably like Tina Fey and Paul Rudd more than actual live humans I've met and have to deal with on a regular basis. Yes, I recognize that I only know them through the characters they play (and that includes their "as themselves" appearances on Letterman's couch or the Golden Globes stage) but their finely sculpted personas of vibrant, clever, likable people automatically gives them lift in any project they choose. When they star together in 'Admission' - a romantic comedy that is just a little bit smarter than the other leading brands - and one where they find a degree of happiness together, well, this puts the movie far off the likability charts.

Tina Fey Responds to Taylor Swift: It Was a Joke, Lighten Up Already

Shauna Wright — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 15:43:31 +0000

Taylor Swift may have condemned Amy Poehler and Tina Fey to the fiery pits of hell for joking about her dating history on the Golden Globes, but neither of the comedic goddesses seems terribly concerned about it.

Amy already brushed off the comments in her typical self-deprecating fashion, and now Tina has weighed in too. But she wasn't quite as playful about it.

Watch the Cast of '30 Rock' Say Goodbye to Tina Fey

Kyle Dowling — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 21:00:58 +0000

If you haven’t yet cried today, perhaps you should give this video a watch. With the backing of some familiar faces from the show (and even a few unfamiliar behind-the-scenes-types), ‘30 Rock‘ unleashed their love letter unto Tina Fey. Looks as if those Tina naysayers and bashers have reason to hold back on their criticisms [...]

Tina Fey Hopes Taylor Swift Writes a Song About Her

Jeff Giles — Wed, 30 Jan 2013 04:01:11 +0000

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler scored some pretty big laughs when they teased Taylor Swift about her crowded dating history during the Golden Globes a couple of weeks ago, but Swift's fans were not amused -- and even though Swift seems to have put it all behind her, Fey knows there's always a chance she could end up joining the ranks of Swift song subjects.

See Tina Fey, Before She Was Tina Fey

Kyle Dowling — Mon, 14 Jan 2013 00:03:54 +0000

The video may not match the hilarity of the soon-to-be finished ‘30 Rock,’ but it does show that comedy-icon Tina Fey struggled just like the rest of us when she started out. The Second City alum now stands atop Comedy Mountain, but back in the day she was just another sexy vest/puffy-shirt-wearing wannabe searching for [...]

'Muppets 2′ Casts Tina Fey as Its Female Lead

Britt Hayes — Wed, 09 Jan 2013 01:52:55 +0000

Rejoice, nerds! Tina Fey is the latest name to join the cast of the upcoming ‘Muppets’ sequel. In the words of the comedy icon herself: We can have it all! THR reports that Tina Fey has joined the cast of ‘The Muppets 2‘ as the female lead, starring opposite fellow human and ‘Invention of Lying’ [...]

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler Get Fancy in Golden Globe Promos

Kyle Dowling — Sat, 15 Dec 2012 05:45:05 +0000

Why hasn’t this happened sooner? It looks like Hollywood’s most enjoyable awards ceremony just got better. A while back it was announced that the 2013 Golden Globe Awards were going to be hosted by comedic superstars Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, both of whom happen to be competing nominees. And if the recently released NBC [...]

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler to Host Golden Globes

Damon Houx — Tue, 16 Oct 2012 16:45:00 +0000

Good job, Golden Globes! Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are set to host this year's Golden Globes ceremony, which is scheduled for January 13, 2013. The duo have previously anchored 'Saturday Night Live's Weekend Update desk together, and co-starred in the 2008 film 'Baby Mama.'

Tina Fey + Amy Poehler Are Co-Hosting the Golden Globes and Now We Need a Cigarette

Kathy Landin — Tue, 16 Oct 2012 16:49:52 +0000

News came down on Monday night that Tina Fey and Amy Poehler will be co-hosting the 70th Annual Golden Globe Awards, and while we don't make a habit of going full-on squee around here, we're having more than a little trouble pulling ourselves together.

It’s like we entered a romcom, threw a coin in a fountain and now all of our fantastical dreams are coming true. This must be what it feels like to actually get a pony for Christmas. No, wait. A unicorn. NO WAIT A UNICORN PONY.

Bottom line: We understand if you need a few moments of privacy. Do what we did and get a room.

Watch Lindsay Lohan, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler Rap in This Lost Audition Video

Mike Sampson — Sat, 29 Sep 2012 16:00:03 +0000

Before Lindsay Lohan was Lindsay Lohan, she was just another teenage actress and a pretty good one at that. It's hard to imagine a time when Lindsay Lohan was hanging out with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler but back in the days before 'Mean Girls' hit theaters, they were doing exactly that.

Tina Fey Sticking With TV, Inks 4-Year Development Deal With Universal

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Wed, 26 Sep 2012 07:00:42 +0000

'30 Rock' might be coming to an imminent end with its seventh and final season this fall, but don't expect series star and 'SNL' alum Tina Fey to lose her grip on the tube any time soon. As her flagship show comes to a close, the star has inked a new lucrative development deal with Universal Television, but the question remains. Will Fey herself star in a new project, independent of '30 Rock,' or perhaps stay behind the scenes?

Tina Fey to Guest Star on 'The Simpsons' Season 24

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Sat, 08 Sep 2012 16:30:57 +0000

Never fear, ‘30 Rock‘ fans, for Tina Fey certainly won’t be out of work for long when the show begins its final season this fall on NBC. Instead, Fey will take her signature sensibilities to ‘The Simpsons,’ guesting in the already-crowed 24th season of the long-running series. But will ‘SNL‘s former funny-lady play herself a la Justin Bieber, or an original character? And blerg, when will we see her appearance?

Jimmy Fallon and Tina Fey 'Joke Off' Against Amy Poehler and Weekend Update's Seth Meyers on 'SNL' [VIDEO]

Bob Sassone — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 08:00:24 +0000

Last night’s ‘Saturday Night Live’ was all about remembering the good times with ex-cast members like Jimmy Fallon, who hosted, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. All three big names are former Weekend Update anchors, and what better way for them to celebrate the fond memories than to throw down a good, old-fashioned ‘Joke Off?’

Tina Fey, Eva Longoria Top Forbes' Richest TV Actresses [PICTURES]

Shauna Wright — Fri, 30 Sep 2011 14:00:45 +0000

What do a comedic genius, some ‘Desperate Housewives,’ two TV detectives and one of your former ‘Friends’ have in common? They all made the list of Forbes’ best-paid actresses on television.

Tied for first place with $13 million each in salaries and syndication revenues are Tina Fey, the brilliant writer and star of ’30 Rock,’ and Eva Longoria from ‘Desperate Housewives.’

Tina Fey Brings Back Sarah Palin

Lucky Larry — Mon, 09 May 2011 19:05:33 +0000

Tina Fey was hosting Saturday Night Live for a 3rd time this past weekend bringing back her hilarious impersonation of Sarah Palin in a skit where she was debating as an undeclared Republican presidential candidate. I think Tina is great in this role. I thought the joke about Katie Couric was pretty funny. If you missed it, I've got it for you after the jump.

Tina Fey, Amy Poehler Visit the 'Jersey Floor' [VIDEO]

Mix 93-1 — Sun, 08 May 2011 15:26:10 +0000

Look out, Snooki.

Funny ladies Tina Fey and Amy Poehler made a surprise appearance on Thursday's 'Late Night With Jimmy Fallon,' in which they paid a visit to the elusive (and admittedly frightening) 'Jersey Floor.'

In this hilarious spoof of MTV's 'Jersey Shore,' Fey and Poehler played two girls looking for love in all the wrong places. Naturally, with lines like "let's have a relationship" and "I wanna make babies with you," it's clear they were never going to make it with Fallon and his 'Floor' crew.

Check out the video after the jump, which features an additional 'Saturday Night Live' reunion with Rachel Dratch.

Tina Fey Preggers [AUDIO]

Jeff Evans — Sun, 10 Apr 2011 00:45:56 +0000

News broke last week that Tina Fey is five months pregnant. The 30 Rock star announced on a yet to be aired episode of Oprah that she and her husband, Jeff Richmond, were expecting their second child. Their other child is a girl who they names Alice. More after the jump. When MTV recently caught [...]

Tina Fey Says Sarah Palin Impersonation Hurt '30 Rock' Audience

roddwayne — Wed, 06 Apr 2011 00:02:09 +0000

Sure, it won her an Emmy and made her more famous than ever before, but two and a half years later, did Tina Fey's dead-on impersonation of Sarah Palin hurt her in the long run? According to Fey, you betcha.

Fey writes about her stint playing the former Vice Presidential candidate in her new memoir, 'Bossypants,' in which she claims it prevented her Emmy-winning comedy '30 Rock' from gaining viewers.
