Tina Fey Talks About Her Daughter Alice, Motherhood, and Fame

Posted by Josh loposer

 Tina Fey and Alice Zenobia

You might think that it'd be weird to grow up with superstar Tina Fey as a mother, but 2 and 1/2 year-old Alice Zenobia is all that impressed. She's more interested in her mom's co-stars Elmo and Oscar in her latest DVD Elmo and the Bookaneers.

“She met Elmo and Oscar, though she was less than two at the time and a little scared of Oscar — but she got her photo taken inside his trash can.”

According to Tina, Alice isn't to into her jokes and actually "thinks that Daddy is funnier." And that's probably OK, because mommy's sense of humor doesn't really cater to Alice's demographic. The thought of a kid laughing at Tracy Jordan, Jenna Maroney, or Jack Donaghy and comprehending 30 Rock's cynical little comedy nuggets is almost kinda disturbing.

As to whether Alice comprehends mommy's superstar status, here's what Tina had to say:

"She's starting to, and I'm trying to figure out how to downplay it. I want her to know that to be famous is not really important and not a sign of any kind of merit. But I do like her coming on the set and seeing how different jobs work and that people have different roles in making the show."
