Everyone wants a piece of
Tina Fey.
The
30 Rock creator and former
Saturday Night Live star has been everywhere lately - from
winning three Emmys to
flawlessly impersonating Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. But now, publishers who have been hounding her to write a book are turning up the heat to capitalize on her brighter-than-ever star.
According to the New York Post, agent Richard Abate was feeling out publishers, one of whom reportedly offered to pay a $5 million advance. That offer launched a bidding war which, according to sources, sent the payday toward $6 million.
Although Fey has not met with anyone (how could she possibly have the time?) and no proposal is on the table, the book is not being pitched as a memoir, but rather as humorous nonfiction.
Would you buy Fey's book? And is there anything this woman can't do? -
