I once saw a snarky magazine report about eternally C List celebrities (perhaps it was Details?) --my beloved
Jane Krakowski was on it, curse their snark! I've never been one too shy away from expressing love for performers who deserve it, be they A list or Z list: who cares. So I must reiterate: Jane Krakowski rocks.
From her memorable supporting work on
Ally McBeal, to that deserved
TONY win for her erotic phone call to Antonio Banderas in Broadway's
Nine (Penélope Cruz is in talks to take over that role
in the film version) to her hilarious work in
30 Rock --this gifted comedienne deserves more mass love. In the last episode of 30 Rock she sold a pitch perfect Broadway baby self parody in
Mystic Pizza the Musical as well as unselfconscious fatsuit gags and dumb blonde optical illusion demonstrations. She kraks me up.
30 Rock won the Emmy last month but where was the love for Jane? Not even a nomination. Even when the Emmys get something right they make it wrong.
argh
UPDATED TO ADD: Happy 39th Birthday Jane!
