No matter what happens in November, Amy Poehler's impersonation of Hillary Clinton on Saturday Night Live will be remembered as one of the high points of the 2008 election. Bossy, bouffanted, totally absurd, Poehler's send-up helped earn her an Emmy nomination, the show's first supporting actress nod in 30 years. It also managed to steer the political debate, lure Clinton onto SNL — excavating her sense of humor in the process — and give her campaign some much-needed oxygen. McCain and Obama may be safe from an Amytation, but their Secret Service details are feeling the heat: The Massachusetts-born Poehler delights in tormenting the grim-faced agents whenever the candidates make cameos. "They're pretty badass and super secret, and they just love it if you give them a nickname," she says. "Like, just call 'em Foxtrot, or like, Hey, Fireball. What's up, Danger Mouse?" You can read the whole thing here. Amy's questionnaire, which is really funny can be found here.

Amy attended the 60 Annual Prime Time Emmy Awards yesterday. She was up for an award and present as well alongside former SNL co star Tina Fey. She may not have won but she delivered laughs presenting an award for Jeremy Piven. Amy looked stunning in her Zac Posen gown. She also talked about her pregnancy recently here's a bit of what she said: "Oh, my God, I'm crying at everything lately. I'm watching 'Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,' and I was crying so hard. There's no shame in that. I'm crying at everything. The wind will blow a branch and I'm like, aw, nature." And while she doesn’t care if her baby is boy or a girl, she definitely wants it to marry Alice Richmond, Tina Fey's daughter. “We'd make a lovely mother and mother-in-law of the bride.” [source] x111 60th Primetime Emmy Awards
