Amy Poehler and Tina Fey are the funniest comedy duo in Hollywood. Seriously, if they had a stand-up set together I’d pay good money to watch it, especially if it has jokes like last night’s on Bill Cosby.
You know how, sometimes, someone will make a joke about something and the rest of the room is kind of quiet and shocked, but you’re there laughing your head off (This meme sums it up perfectly actually). That was me last night when Amy and Tina laid into Bill Cosby with a joke that involved Sleeping Beauty, pills and bathrobes.
(Just as an FYI, skip all the way to 9:00 for the Bill Cosby Joke)
You can almost hear the room divided between nervous laughter and “ooooh’s” as I’m sure many in the audience not only know Bill Cosby on a personal level, but are his friends and colleagues and are continuing to support him throughout this troublesome time.
Not me though. I was laughing my head off as I mentioned above throughout the whole segment. Tina Fey’s brilliant “I put the pills in the people” impersonation of Cosby was priceless too.
It’s not the first time Fey has spoken out about Bill Cosby and his dodgy rape allegations. In fact, she was one of the first people to reference it, all the way back in 2005 (Almost 10 years ago!)
Tina and Amy always light up the Golden Globes, and while some people think that they went too far, I honestly wish they’d carried on the whole night with the Cosby jokes!
