Tina Fey flaunts her baby bump, will host the Mother’s Day SNL episode

Tina Fey flaunts her baby bump, will host the Mother’s Day SNL episode

These are some new photos of Tina Fey exiting the Ed Sullivan Theatre last night after taping a show with David Letterman. These are the first photos I’ve seen where Tina’s bump is really obvious. I’m really happy for her - she’s got it all! Happily married, one happy, healthy daughter and another baby on the way, a great career in television and film, and now a bestselling book, Bossypants. How does Tina juggle it all? As it Fey reminds the reader time and time again in Bossypants, not well. Apparently, there’s even a charming story about Oprah telling Tina that she shouldn’t be over-scheduling so much.

It’s also just been announced that Tina is going to host Saturday Night Live yet again - she’ll be the host for the May 7, the day before Mother’s Day. It should be a good one - Tina always gets the best writing when she’s on.

In other Fey news, a few days ago, (female) writer Curtis Sittenfeld wrote a piece for The New York Times about Tina Fey’s “place in the sisterhood” and whether or not Tina’s “girly” hilarity compares to the more traditional male-dominated humor-industrial complex. It’s an interesting piece, and worth a read if you like reading feminist essays about Tina Fey’s feminism. You can read it here.

Tina Fey Talks Being a Working Mom

Tina Fey Talks Being a Working Mom


She’s always on the go with her multitude of projects and talents, and Tina Fey told InStyle that being a working mom is as rewarding as it is challenging.

The “30 Rock” actress confessed that she understands the plight of other showbiz moms like Gwyneth Paltrow, and wants to help them.


She explained, "Any time you talk about being a working mother and you complain about it in any way, people eat your face. I remember reading some interview where Gwyneth Paltrow said something like, 'I missed my kids on the set one day and I was crying.' And I thought, Yeah, I've totally done that."

"But on the Web site where I read it there were these furious comments. 'But you're a movie star!' Yes, it's much worse for a mom serving in Afghanistan. Of course. But there's just no forgiveness."

Tina empathized, "You need a lot of help, and you need not to be afraid to ask for help. But even still, every 12 weeks or so, you just kind of lose it. Then you gather it back up."
