The Top 5 Moments From Tina Fey And Amy Poehler's SNL Episode

The two comedy sisters and "SNL" alums, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler made their return to the stage in New York this past Saturday night. In light of their recent movie "Sisters," these two queens of comedy reminded us exactly what we missed about them during their "SNL" days.

1. The return of Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin:

Perhaps the most iconic political impersonations in the history of "Saturday Night Live" were Amy Poehler as Hillary Clinton and Tina Fey as Sarah Palin. Amy joined the current Hillary impersonator, Kate McKinnon with as Sarah Palin in a dream sequence full of political allegory.

2. Bad blood music video parody:

With special guest star, Amy Schumer we saw Taylor Swift's version of #squadgoals redefined with this comic sequence full of laughs that had us falling off of our chairs.


3. Weekend update:

These two were the first women to co-anchor the iconic "Weekend Update" filled with one-liners about the week's latest happenings. Fey and Poehler joined Colin Jost and Michael Che in telling the last two jokes of the evening, and we were taken way back to their times as cast members.


4. Maya Rudolph back in "Bronx Beat:"

Also an "SNL" alum from what some may call the golden days, Maya Rudolph made an appearance with Amy Poehler and brought back the skit "Bronx Beat," only leaving us to hope that Kristen Wiig would also make an appearance.

The weekend's musical guests were Bruce Springsteen and the E Street band but little did we know that the show would sign off its Christmas special with the band performing "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" with none other than Paul McCartney hopping on the stage with sleigh bells.


It's safe to say this year's Christmas special did not disappoint. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler ensured that SNL ended their year on a high note. We can only wait for more laughs from this iconic show once the new year rolls around.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
