Amy Poehler Does ‘Time Out New York’ Magazine
In celebration of Time Out magazine’s 40th anniversary, Time Out New York features Saturday Night Live comedienne Amy Pohler (among others) in a new interview with the mag wherein she talks about her fave NY things and also poses for a supercute new photospread where she shows off her burgeoning baby bump. Here are a few pics from her photoshoot and a portion of her interview:
Time Out: What do you love about doing comedy in New York?
Amy Poehler: New York is so accessible to the lifestyle we were leading when we first moved there. You can eat really cheaply and buy nitrous at the deli before your show.
Time Out: What’s the biggest thing to happen to the city in the last 13 years?
Amy Poehler: Well, what do you think that answer’s gonna be? For me, it’s the new restaurant next to Kiehl’s.
Time Out: What’s your favorite place or thing in New York?
Amy Poehler: During the blackout our theater [UCB Theater] didn’t lose power for some reason. Everyone in the neighborhood came over and some people slept there. We performed all night.
Time Out: I was there the first night the theater reopened after 9/11, for performers only. It was a very special gathering.
Amy Poehler: Yeah, in the past 13 years, when the shit goes down, we meet there. It’s a great place to be when the world goes to shit.
Time Out: Complete the sentence: New York is…
Amy Poehler: …full of cheeseburgers.
Aww I love it … and I love that Time Out NY chose Amy as one of their 40 Most Amazingest New Yorkers Ever for this issue of their mag. Amy is a doll and she looks absolutely beautiful with a baby bump. I’m utterly convinced that she is going to be the coolest mom ever … even tho a little part of me thinks that she may kinda be a little like the character she played in her last movie (with Tina Fey) Baby Mama. Whatevs, I’d love to have Amy Poehler as a mom … wouldn’t you?
