Actress and comedian Tina Fey has been riding high with her hit show 30 Rock and her hilarious portrayal of Sarah Palin on Saturday Night Live. She graces the cover of the January 2009 issue of Vanity Fair.
The talented Fey’s career slipped into high gear this fall when she captured the full attention of a nation with her ‘dead on’ impersonation of John McCain‘s V.P. running mate. That short stint of comedic episodes snared her a $5 million book deal.
Fey is married to Jeff Richmond, an SNL composer. They have a three year old daughter Alice. The actress calls her spouse “the Joe Biden of husbands”, likely to “drop the bomb” in interviews. That said, the two sat down with Vanity Fair to share some insights into their life. Check out the link to the full article at the bottom of this post.
In the course of their conversation with VF, Jeff spoke on a subject that has not previously been discussed – Tina Fey’s facial scar. Said Richmond, “It was in, like, the front yard of her house and some body just came up, and she just thought somebody marked her with a pen.”
The actress was injured when she was five, and would only say, “It’s impossible to talk about it without somehow seemingly exploiting it.” See closeup photo below.
