Tina Fey Takes Over the World. Finally.

Above is the cover for the January 2009 issue of Vanity Fair. What could be better? Well, other than the rest of the photos by Annie Leibovitz, there is the article by NY Times writer Maureen Dowd. Check it out here.

Tina Fey is brilliant, in short. She is a woman to watch. Not only is she hilarious, but she is so smart. Incredibly smart. And she's a good person--in the real person sense of that, not in the saintly sense. In a way we can all aspire to and actually achieve, without ever having billions of dollars.

I think she's an excellent role model for younger comediennes and actresses. Not only has she done incredibly well for herself, but it certainly seems that she has done it all without compromising herself in any way. In a nutshell, she is intelligent, hilarious, principled, and someone you can really respect. To say nothing of gorgeous. All in a real person kind of way.

We all need good role models. Add Tina Fey to the list. This is just the beginning!
