After writing…and rewriting this article countless times, I think it’s safe to say that Tina Fey is kind of indescribable. You might look at the 30 Rock star as just a hilarious comedian with a knack for impersonating our favorite politician (to make fun of), Sarah Palin, but look a little closer and you’ll see that Fey is more than a pair of thick-rimmed glasses. This active feminist is a spokesperson for girls all around the nation and teaches us ladies what being a go-getter is all about. Paving the way by getting her way (ya know, Fey was the first female writer for SNL, HOLLA), Fey is a perfect role model for young women…she never fails to remind us that we can get anywhere we want in life by remembering, well, that bitches get shit done.
So here’s to her wit, hard work, and effortless attempt to make fun of Taylor Swift at the Golden Globes. Tina, we salute you!
