Tina Fey: Sarah Palin's 'five times' hotter than me

21 October 2008 @ 03:16 pm ET

Tina Fey who stars as Governor Sarah Palin on Saturday Night Live has confessed that she believes Palin is "five times" hotter than she is.

"When I first saw her, I didn't think we looked alike at all," Fey said, about when she was first approached to play the Republican vice presidential nominee. "Then during the convention, I started to think, 'Ok, maybe a little.'"

Now Fey wishes she looked more like Palin.

"I'll tell you, that lady is five times better-looking than I am," she admits. "She's 44? She's got none of that droopy s--t. She's keeping it tight!"

Fey first appeared as Palin for the show's season premiere last month in a sketch with SNL cast member Amy Poehler, who played Sen. Hillary Clinton.

Fey's next impersonation of Palin, two weeks later, was once again alongside Poehler, this time disguised as CBS anchor Katie Couric. The two mocked Palin's interview with Couric earlier that week. Fey then spoofed the debate between Palin and Democratic vice-presidential candidate Joe Biden, played by SNL regular Jason Sudeikis, with Queen Latifah portraying debate moderator Gwen Ifill, of PBS.

More recently, Fey appeared alongside Sarah Palin on the show. It was the first appearance of the Alaskan governor on the late-night comedy show.
