Tattooed Vixen: Tina Fey's Smackdown Was "Pretty Funny"
On Saturday Night Live, when not yucking it up with Justin Bieber and Mark Sanchez, Tina Fey took harsh aim at Michelle McGee (see video below), the woman who had an affair with Sandra Bullock's husband, and said her body "like a dirt bag’s binder from 7th grade metal shop." McGee now tells Inside Edition, which is airing an interview with her tonight and tomorrow, “It’s really pretty funny. People like to pick on my tattoos and stuff. And, that’s fine.”
But what's not so fine is when Fey compared her to a whore: "That is kind of hurtful because she doesn’t know me. She doesn’t know my side of the story." Inside Edition also brought up how Fey "said if Hitler were alive, he’d be on Sandra Bullock’s side," which prompted McGee to reply, “That’s very hurtful to bring that up. Hitler. That stuff is just wrong." When IE pointed out that there are photographs of McGee with swastikas, the tattoo enthusiast admitted, "It is one of my biggest regrets -- that photo shoot... I was very stupid [to get a swastika tattoo 15 years ago] I am not a racist. I am not a white supremacist. I am not a Nazi I don’t have those views."
Overall, McGee says, "Tina Fey is funny. She is just doing her job - to make people laugh," and would be happy to appear on TV, "Who wouldn’t want to be on Saturday Night Live?"

She has admitted she slept with James for the "money". If that is not a "whore", what is?

Thanks, Tina. Makes a man's life so much easier when we can avoid all responsibility for situations like this. Good to know that if you still cheat on your wife, people will just call the other woman a whore, and not focus on your unfaithful ways.

"Who wouldn’t want to be on Saturday Night Live?"
But why would she be on SNL? What talent does she have, other than having a surgically-enhanced amount of skin on which she lets tattoo artists work?
And there are much more talented, more beautiful, classier, and simply nicer women with better tattoos. For example:
Tina Fey called it like it is. I loved when she called out Tiki as well. She killed it on SNL this week.

I don't have those views. At the time, I thought getting the swastika was a terrific idea. But now, oopsy!

I'm shocked -- SHOCKED -- that someone regrets their swastika tattoo!

Seriously
Tina Fey is not funny
People just don't have any taste anymore
Hence hacks like her, Jimmy Falon, and Steve Carell are popular

Tina is a better writer than performer.

Have you ever seen her dance?

humor is subjective. many people, like myself, find Tina Fey's brand of humor very funny and entertaining. just not when Tina is doing a Palin impression, since everything about her is icky.
we all really hope you'll forgive us our bad taste.

I have hunch that Larry the Cable guy and Carlos Mencia just tickle you with laughter.

hahaha!

Steve Carell is pretty funny.

not trolling, i swear, but who do you find funny?

Can Tina Fey please come back to SNL?

It wasn't funny when she was a regular, just like it's not funny now.

Gimme a break. She's SUCH a victim in all this. 'Whore' works on so many levels for this woman.

This woman seems to be a nazi shit, But WHORE? Fuck you dude. When someone has as many glaring personality flaws tattooed all over their body it's pretty shitty to resort to arbitrary misogyny.

Chill out. I'm not saying she's a whore simply because she's a woman, but because she obviously gloms on to any attention - and from what I can tell the worst kinds of attention (which probably explains the Nazi tattoo to begin with) - she can get. So she is therefore, in my opinion, a whore.
