“I took comfort knowing that Amy could carry the sketch if I stunk it up, because she’s such a skilled and generous performer. I mean, she’s no Kattan in a dress, but considering the Darwinian limitations on women in comedy, she does very well for herself.” - Tina Fey

Emmy Roundtable: Comedy Actresses

Lea Michele: I've had so many scary/embarrassing things happen to me from working on Broadway. From people being wildly drunk like in the audience, and we also had seats on the stage. I was in a show called Spring Awakening, and there was this one scene where my character is deciding whether or not she should have an abortion, and I'm fourteen years old, and it's Germany, and everything bad is happening, and this one woman in the audience she goes "GO FOR IIIIIT"
Amy Poehler: I'm really sorry I thought it was funny at the time.

You don’t forget when those things happen, I’m not gonna lie to you. You probably will remember it, but you won’t care anymore. Very very soon you won’t care that it happened. (x)


“Girls have to fight against a lot of the same stuff we did growing up — peer pressure, exploitation, etc. But what worries me the most is this trend that caring about something isn’t cool. That it’s better to comment on something than to commit to it. That it’s so much cooler to be unmotivated and indifferent. Our culture can get so snarky and ironic sometimes and we kind of wanted Smart Girls to celebrate the opposite of that.” | Amy Poehler on her webseries for girls, Smart Girls at the Party
