Read on for HIGHlights!
On being the Mean Girl: “Marlene is my best girlfriend. She was Prom Queen at high school, based on the fact that she is so incredibly likeable ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ very pretty, but never the Mean Girl. I was [the Mean Girl], I admit it openly. That was a disease that had to be conquered. It’s another coping mechanism ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ it’s a bad coping mechanism ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ but when you feel less than (in high school, everyone feels less than everyone else for different reasons), in your mind it’s a way of leveling the playing field. Though of course it’s not. Saying something terrible about someone else does not actually level the playing field. If I meet a girl of 14 or 15 today who is that kind of girl, I am secretly, in my body, afraid. Even though I’m 45.”
On plastic surgery: “Sometimes I like to watch those Real Housewives TV shows, and Alice will be there and I’ll say, ├óΓé¼╦£See how these ladies have put all this goop in their face, isn’t that funny? That’s silly, right? Why would they do that?’ And that is hopefully going to be the thing that keeps me from doing it.”
On Amy Poehler: “I met Amy Poehler in Chicago in 1993, when we were both studying improvisation. She was the cool girl. I remember counseling so many guys who were just immediately in love with her. It was a phase that every Chicago improviser had to go through ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ ├óΓé¼╦£I’m secretly in love with Amy.’ ├óΓé¼╦£Of course you are, I know.’ Amy is very warm, a great person to have on your team in any capacity. We work together best ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ on [their new movie] Sisters, or presenting the Golden Globes ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ by doing our own thing next to each other. I do wonder, if we tried to do five years on a series together, if it would be like, ├óΓé¼╦£Wait a minute, which one of us is the boss?’ Because, truthfully, I think we are two Alphas.”
On teaching her kids about hard work and fame: “When Alice was small, I would bring her to the 30 Rock set because I wanted to show her why being famous is the least important part of anything; it’s a by-product. The making of a story, creating characters, building sets ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ these are the really cool parts. Because this society is raising children who want to be famous for nothing, to just have followers.”
“I shielded the girls from [fame] for a while, but then I spoke to a school psychologist and she was really helpful. She said, ├óΓé¼╦£I’ll tell you the same thing I tell wealthy people, that you can say [to your kids]: Yes, this is something that I have. And it’s mine. It’s not yours.’ Like if it was money you would tell them, ├óΓé¼╦£Yes, we have lots of money, but I earned it, and it’s mine. And someday you may have yours├óΓé¼┬ª’
On political correctness: “Steer clear of the internet and you’ll live forever. We did anUnbreakable Kimmy Schmidt episode and the internet was in a whirlwind, calling it ├óΓé¼╦£racist’, but my new goal is not to explain jokes. I feel like we put so much effort into writing and crafting everything, they need to speak for themselves. There’s a real culture of demanding apologies, and I’m opting out of that.”
On falling in love with her husband: “I would say I have, for sure, now kissed more men on camera than off. I’d kissed other boys before Jeff, but it’s not a deep bench. Jeff was the piano player in Chicago [in the ’90s] who live-scored our improvisation, which is an incredible talent. He had very short hair and a very Welsh face, and the first thing I said to him was: ├óΓé¼╦£People ever tell you that you look like Anthony Hopkins?’ My friend Marlene was visiting so we all went out and she said, ├óΓé¼╦£That Jeff guy likes you.’ And when he drove us home ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ he had a car, because he was an adult ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ he just did the dumbest joke: he had a thick head of curly hair and he grabbed it and said, ├óΓé¼╦£I can’t wait to get home and get this toupee off.’ It was funny!”
