During her interview with Letterman, the host pulled out an Us Magazine article that listed the ages of celebrities who were "virgins into their 20s." On the list were actress Brooke Shields, Victoria's Secret supermodel Adriana Lima ... and Fey. Seemingly embarrassed by the topic, Fey was a good sport and poked fun at herself over it.
"All the other people, that was a choice on their part. That woman is a Victoria's Secret model. She made a choice," she joke, referring to Lima and hinting that her chastity wasn't much of a decision on her part.
Fey then said she "Couldn't give it away," and that it was "just good, Christian values ... or, being homely" that kept her pure for all those years.

Tina Fey has no b*lls...the perfect comeback to that video would've been "Apparently I should have just gotten a job working on the Letterman show!".
She sold out - just like the rest of these comedians. Every late night show should be leading off with jokes about this, just Letterman would be doing like he did with former Governer Spitzer or Clinton, or anyone else.

The reason Tina Fey didn't make that joke isn't because she sold out, it's because she's a smart comedian, who doesn't go for the most obvious stupid joke available.

To Jenny S.-Perfect response (Still laughing- should have gotten a job on your show) Nice job.

Might've been funny if I hadn't already heard that joke from EVERYONE that talked about this news story. Here's a hint, when more that a dozen people will think of a joke and think it's witty, it isn't. And that's why she didn't bother with it.

1) The only reason Tina was a virgin until 24 was because she hadn't met me. : D
2) I could always tell the difference between her and "hockey pit bull mom". When I look in Tina's eyes, I can't seethe back of her skull.

Sucks? HAHAHAHA Tina Fey did more for Sarah Palin then Sarah Palin could ever hope for. Palin couldn't pay for what she was given on SNL. Tina Fey is not an ugly woman by any means, she just doesn't have to put on a fake face like alot of women do...especially Sarah Palin. Take the makeup off Sarah Palin and you just have a 2 legged Moose walking around Alaska.

Tina Fey blew it. she could have at least cracked a joke such as, "I should have waited until I was older and I could have lost my virginity on the studio couch with Dave."
or some reference tohis carousing.
disappointed in ol' Tina. she's got to be sharper than that.

Once again, thanks to all of the brainwashed neocons for writing in with your predictable, same-as-always, ditto-head, talking-point remarks. It's heart warming to know there's still something funny about you people, thanks for the laugh. AOL and PopEater should also thank you because every click of that mouse that you make increases their web-site count and therefore affects the amount of money they charge for web-site advertising! Congratulations neocons!!!

I love Tina Fey! She was always funny on SNL, but her high point came with her famous renditions of Sarah Palin - they were HILARIOUS!!

The Tina Fey parity of Sarah Palin was one of the funniest things ever put on television. Of course, it wasn't too hard for Tina because Sarah made it so easy for her. Did you see the Sarah Palin interview with Katie Couric? It was shameful and imbarrassing to any intelligent woman in this country.

Tiny Fey is a good-looking woman,and I have no doubt she was a good looking teen girl. I suspect her problem was related to being a intelligent geek that was not shy. Outgoing geeks are rare,and attractive geeks are even rarer. She probably just scared the hell out of the teenage boys she grew up around.
Her politics still suck,though.
Then again,if she hadn't of adopted leftist political viewpoints,chances are she would be working as a waitress somewhere,and we would have never heard of her. Show biz is totally controlled by lefties.

Not son, my friend: Ever heard of the FOX Network. In case you didn't know, that's not news. It's entertainment. Ever heard of Rush Limbaugh. His brand of entertainment made him $40 million on his latest contract. Entertainment? It's the new politics.
