Tina Fey As Sarah Palin Wins An Emmy

Filed in National by on September 13, 2009

Tina Fey’s hilarious and scarily accurate depiction of Sarah Palin has won an Emmy. Congratulations, Tina Fey, this award is well-deserved.

Tina Fey picked up the sixth Emmy of her career Saturday night with her win as guest actress in a comedy series for her portrayal of GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin on” Saturday Night Live.” This is the fifth category Tina Fey has taken at the Emmys with previous wins in: writing variety (“SNL,” 2002); producing comedy (“30 Rock,” 2007, 2008); writing comedy (“30 Rock,” 2008); and lead actress comedy (“30 Rock,” 2008).

…

Accepting the award, Fey acknowledged the politico she so deftly lampooned saying, “Mrs. Palin is an inspiration to working mothers everywhere because she bailed on her job right before Fourth of July weekend. You are living my dream. Thank you, Mrs. Palin.” At next Sunday’s Primetime Emmys, Fey defends her lead actress and series wins.

    Congrats to Tina — this never gets old.

    Can’t find the “fancy pageant walking” one, which is hysterical.

    Ridiculous, Queen Latifah’s portrayal of Gwen Ifill was much better…must be racism.
