…Not Kristen Wiig playing Nancy Pelosi — THE Nancy Pelosi!
The House Minority Leader landed a coveted role in final the episode of 30 Rock. Her life-long dream (we’re assuming) has FINALLY come true!
Now, don’t go worrying about her appearance taking time away from Nancy’s Fiscal Cliff avoiding responsibilities. The hour-long series finale was tapped back in mid-December while the Senate was taking a nap.
Besides the obvious reasons (craft services, proximity to Alec Baldwin, etc…) the politician says she decided to appear on the show because:
“I would do almost anything Tina Fey asks me to do.”
Figners crossed Tina never asks for a nuclear weapon! HA!
We are SERIOUSLY looking forward to the show’s goodbye episode — especially now cuz Ice-T is also making an appearance, and we just don’t know how the hell his storyline will cross paths with the powerful politician’s!
