Amy Poehler
TV Guide conducted a Q&A with Amy Poehler about her move to NBC’s primetime schedule. In the interview, Amy discusses her character and the secrets to her post-SNL success:
On her character, Leslie Knope:
Leslie sees herself as a big shot, even though she has what’s really a very very very small amount of power. Leslie is definitely in over her head. She’s like one of those school monitors who takes the job a little too seriously.On starring opposite a giant hole:
You have to admit, it’s a lovely looking hole, as holes go.
On the secret of her success:
In 1992, I met an old gypsy woman on the side of the road and she gave me a magic bean. I ate it and that was it. The hard part was I had to chop off her head after she gave it to me. But now look at me. I’m famous.
