We don"t need no squad goals -- we just need Tina Fey and Amy Poehler to be on our screens for 20 more years of wacky gal-pal shenanigans.
The best friends forever and women who are way funnier than you are reuniting on the silver screen again forSisters(Dec. 18), but it"s only the latest in their 22-year history of comedycollaborations, photobombs and cameos.
Their friendship still shows no signs of waning--or getting any less funny --so to celebrate their glorious reign as the queens of comedy, we"ve compiled a timeline of their beautiful friendship.
Meeting at theChicago"s ImprovOlympics -1993The two of them met as struggling 20-something improv comedians in Chicago, introduced by the theatre"s co-founder, Charna Halpern. At the ImprovOlympics, they create a two-woman show called "Woman of Color," and later join comedy companies Second City and the Upright Citizens Brigade.
From Amy and Tina"s Marie Claire interview(via Vulture):
Poehler:Okay, let"s talk about when we first met in Chicago, in 1993. What were we doing?
Fey:We were probably eating Italian beef sandwiches and getting our hair permed.
Poehler:Actually, we met in class at the ImprovOlympic Theater. You taught me my first real beauty lesson.
Fey:I was 22 or 23, and I had only recently learned that you can pluck your eyebrows or have a lady put hot wax on them and remove portions of them and shape them. So this was a big thing that happened to me, and I passed that information on to you.
Tinaconvinces Amy to join SNL- 2001Tina moved to New York in 1997 to write forSaturday Night Live, but she wasn"t able to convince Amy to join her at the show until 2001. It was at this time that Tina had begun co-anchoring the "Weekend Update" desk with Jimmy Fallon.
