Glo's Girl Crushes of the Week: SNL Edition

Candice Bergen

By Natasha Burton

Before she was Murphy Brown, this actress was the first woman to emcee SNL. Not only that, but she was also the first person to host for a second time (just five weeks after her initial appearance!).

Anne Hathaway

The actress hosted soon after her ex-boyfriend went to jail, addressing the subject with comedic poise in her monologue. “I’ve had a busy summer. I did some travelling, I’ve got a new movie out … and I broke up with my Italian boyfriend, and two weeks later he was sent to prison for fraud. I mean, we’ve all been there. Am I right, ladies?”

Betty White

Her hosting gig came on the heels of a Facebook campaign like no other. While it's hard to believe that the actress had never once emceed the show, she was worth the wait. Between her interactions with Jay-Z and her “Delicious Dish” muffin skit, we can bet Betty will be back on SNL again.

Drew Barrymore

This actress is no stranger to the Rockefeller Center studio — she’s been on the show nine times. We particularly enjoyed her Body Fusion workout video skit and when she appeared alongside Kristen Wiig’s Gilly as Italian student Gigli.

Jane Curtin

Not only did this comedienne hold her own as the co-anchor of weekend update from 1976-77, she did killer impressions of a variety of famous ladies like Grace Kelly, Dolly Parton, Nancy Reagan and Eleanor Roosevelt.

Natalie Portman

Sporting a spunky post-V for Vendetta pixie cut, Natalie showed her fictional wild side in a SNL Digital Short in which she delivered a bleep-filled rap. A G-rated excerpt: Posse: “What you want Natalie?” Portman: “To drink and fight!”

Tina Fey

While her SNL street cred comes from being the show’s first female head writer, she may be most remembered for her satirical portrayal of then-Republican vice presidential hopeful Sarah Palin, for which she won an Emmy Award in 2009.

Lindsay Lohan

Before she was in need of rehab, Lindsay lent her comedic chops for a Neutrogena spoof about “coin slot dryness” (in reference to the way low-riser jeans tend to unintentionally show off one’s bum). We love the chutzpah in her line, “Kick coin slot dryness to the curb!”

Amy Poehler

We can’t wait to see Amy back on the show this Saturday night as the host. Her Sarah Palin rap, which she performed just seven days before she gave birth to her first child, Archie, still leaves us in stitches. And her Hilary Clinton? Classic.
