Tina Fey and Amy Poehler make people laugh on a daily basis. Their recent
buddy comedy Baby Mama debuted at No. 1. But the ladies tell Oprah Winfrey in an interview airing Thursday that they still aren't sure if they're funny. "I think you never really know," Fey said after Winfrey asked when she knew she was funny. Quipped Poehler: "I would do serious plays and people would laugh." Apart from their hit movie, Poehler has another happy occasion to anticipate: the birth of her first child.

Amy Poehler's Movie Perk: Necking with Dax Shepard
Originally posted 04/24/2008 02:30PM
Starring in the movie Baby Mama had its perks for Amy Poehler – like, making out with Dax Shepard.
"Dax is a gem – one of my closest friends," Poehler told PEOPLE at the comedy's premiere Wednesday night, as it kicked off the 7th annual Tribeca Film Festival in New York.
"A couple make-out scenes didn't make the [final cut], which I was upset about," noted the Saturday Night Live regular, 36.
But did Poehler's real-life husband, Will Arnett, grumble about her smooching with the sweet-faced Shepard – who plays her onscreen hubby? "Oh, they're good friends," she says. "He didn't mind."

Tina Fey: My Generation's Been Duped
Originally posted 03/06/2008 03:40PM
The good times are over for Tina Fey. (That's a joke, of course.)
But the 30 Rock creator does tell Parade for its issue Sunday: "I think my generation has been slightly tricked in that you're really encouraged to try to have it all.
"And sometimes your body will not let you wait as long as you want," adds the working mom, whose daughter, Alice, was born in 2005 – and prompted Fey, 37, to take only a 43-day maternity leave before heading back to Saturday Night Live.

Tina Fey's Daughter Is Growing Up Fast
Originally posted 12/07/2007 01:55PM
As the writers' strike wears on, Tina Fey gets to spend a lot more time with her 2-year-old daughter Alice – and is finding out just how grown-up the little one is becoming.
"She's hilarious," Fey, 37, tells PEOPLE. "She's really starting to talk in full sentences, and she has her opinions and she's a little bit learning how to lie.
"She's at this age where I'll say, 'I have to change your diaper,' and she'll say, 'No, no, because it's all gone. Diaper all gone.' And I'll say, 'That's a lie.' Or I'll say, 'Eat your vegetables,' and she'll say, 'No, I can't, they're dirty.' She's a very funny, sweet kid."

Fallon & Fey's Surprise SNL Reunion
Originally posted 04/11/2005 08:00AM
MOCKED: Former "Weekend Update" anchors Jimmy Fallon, 30, and Tina Fey, 34, staged a feisty comic reunion on on Saturday Night Live this weekend, feigning a "custody battle" over their supposed love child. Fallon abruptly left "SNL" last summer, and his Saturday appearance was billed as a surprise. Said the kid, who wore Fey-like eyeglasses, to Fallon: "I hate you! Taxi sucked!" (Taxi was a Fallon movie bomb.) His new movie with Drew Barrymore, Fever Pitch, only finished third in the weekend's box-office race, behind Sahara and Sin City.
