Tina Fey, one of my favorite people on this planet, has just signed a book deal with Little Brown Book Association!  There's not an exact confirmation of how much she will get, but word is Tina has been offered at least $6 million to write a humor-based memoir.

Tina is a hot commodity right now, recently winning an Emmy for Best Actress and for her dead-on impressions of veep nominee Sarah Palin. Speaking of which, there are rumors that Palin will cameo on SNL to do an impression of Tina Fey!  I can see Russia from my front yard has to be the quote of the year.

Her Emmy goods, that is.  We spotted Tina Fey at LAX enjoying the high of three Emmy awards that she will be taking back to New York with her. Tina was traveling with fellow producer Marci Klein who actually carried her Emmy home with her.

Tina took Best Writing credits, Best Actress and Best Comedic Series for 30 Rock one of the best, if not thee best sitcom on tv right now.  Congratulations Tina, well deserved!

We spotted Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin hard at work yesterday filming scenes on location for the upcoming season of 30 Rock!  It's so refreshing in an age of reality programming consisting of strippers competing in egg and spoon races to win cell phones and "love" to see an actual sitcom that's both hilarious and smart.  I'm just as excited this fall to see Liz Lemon do battle with the likes of Jack Donaghy and Tracy Jordan as am I Blair Waldorf with Chuck Bass. 

Click through the gallery to see Tina and Alec do their thing, then watch the clip below that someone compiled of all of Liz Lemon's best quotes from the show, it will having you loling in your cubicle.

       

Quick-think of every star on every show on every NBC network and see how many you can list off!  Give up?!  Don't worry, you probably would need a million Trapper Keepers worth of loose leaf to jot down every sitcom, drama, news program and reality show that NBC and all its affiliated network comprise, not to mention that talent that goes along with them!  Lucky for us we can put our pens down and take a look at the gaggle of stars that aligned and converged at the NBC "upfront" yesterday.  Everyone from Brooke Shields and the ladies from Lipstick Jungle to Rainn Wilson and John Krasinski from The Office.  Jimmy Fallon, who was just named, as the new host of Late Night, once Conan takes over The Tonight Show was there to celebrate the good news with his wife Nancy Juvenon.  Donnie Deutsch from CNBC was there on the news tip, as well James Lipton from Inside the Actors Studio.  Oh, and Janice, you know we couldn't forget Janice with her "Get off Miley's Back" t-shirt.  Well I guess we know where she stands! 

            

Time Magazine recently released its fifth annual 100 Most Influential People list.  The list sets out to honor world leaders, innovators and also entertainers.  Among the guests at last night's ceremony held at the Lincoln Center in New York City were comedy writers Lorne Michael (who was accompanied by several SNL cast members), Tyler Perry and Judd Apatow.  The Time entries weren't written by a reporter, but rather by the peers and comrades of the honoree.  You can read the entire list and the accompanying articles here. 

     

The Tribeca Film Festival got kicked off to a hilarious start with the premiere of the new movie Baby Mama.  The film stars Tina Fey as a neurotic woman who wants to get pregnant but can't and Amy Poehler as a loud mouth, working class lady who agrees to become her surrogate.  Tons of peeps showed up for the screening including Amy's husband Will Arnett, Kristen Bell, race car driver Danica Patrick and former SNLer Molly Shannon.  Baby Mama opens this Friday, can't wait!
