Fey: If Palin Wins, I'm Leaving Earth
October 13, 2008 1:10 PM
They say all good things must come to an end. Tina Fey's spot-on impression of Sarah Palin may be no exception.
The comedian/writer/producer/media mogul of the moment will not be playing Palin after Election Day if the Alaskan governor assumes the vice presidency.
"Election time is always good for ['SNL'] and this is a bonkers election," the "Saturday Night Live" alum told TV Guide. "And that lady is a media star. She is a fascinating person, she’s very likeable. She’s fun to play, and the two bits with Amy [Poehler], that was super fun."
But regarding her plans to continue her uncanny impersonation of Palin on "SNL," Fey said, "We’re gonna take it week by week. If she wins, I’m done. I can’t do that for four years. And by 'I'm done,' I mean I’m leaving Earth."
For the sake of primetime comedy, let's hope the Emmy-winning "30 Rock" star stays firmly planted on the third rock from the sun, no matter the election's outcome.

If McCain wins, the skits she did will be worth more in the future.

Man, for a bunch of people that hate the "hollywood elite" some of you are quick to jump on this one.
Ya think she could have meant that she just doesn't want to do the bit for that long?
Jeez.

S Adams, sorry to disspoint, but Tina Fey is a graduate of the University of Virginia. Before you start the name-calling, why not get the facts. And by the way, using the word celebutard is childish and disgusting, making fun of people with disabilities.

Oh, Tina, and when you blast off into the great beyond, never to come back, make sure you take the vicious Madonna, Sandra Bernhard, Matt Damon, and P Diddy with you! YOu know what, no one will miss them. And also, any Obama supporter wants to go, please do, the world will be a much nicer place without you, seeing how vicious and vile you all can be. Those anti - Palin t-shirts....the most disgusting thing I have seen EVER...... is this the "hopey changey" thing that The One preaches about? Are you just proud of yourselves that Obama has revealed your true evil?
We don't need that type of "change" in this world; they probably don't want it around in outer space as well. What WILL we do with outcasts like yourselves?

Please win Palin so we can rid ourselves of another piece of trash.

Hell half of hollywood said they were leaving if Bush got elected for a second term and those lying ba$tards are still here.

To those blasting Tina Fey, Fey was, you know, probably poking fun of those celebs who say they're going to leave the USA if a politician they don't like wins. Fey is a comedienne after all.. I love how if any person says something critical, even in a joking fashion, about a Republican, the neocons get all "shut up and sing." It's America folks--and if you people are so scared of opposing views then the problem might be with the politicians you support and not those criticizing them.

Fey should pack her bags - good riddance to bad company.

All I can say Tina, I sure do hope McCain and Palin win because I would like to see you and most of Hollyweird leave this plant too. Don't let the door hit you on your :)when you leave.

Is that a promise?
Posted by: geevill | Oct 13, 2008 1:53:36 PM
Just another ignorant lefty.
Well I'm voting McCain.
That settles it!

Great; leave. The world would be better without you....
Like anyone cares what some stupid overpaid celebrity says....

Why should Tina Fey leave the earth. Lets just pay some astronauts to fly Sarah Palin into space and then ditch her when shes not paying attention.
