Tina Fey Talks About The Traumatic Childhood Event That Left Her Face Scarred
You may have noticed the faint scar on comedian Tina Fey’s left cheek. When she’s on screen shooting “30 Rock” and most recently “Saturday Night Live” imitating Sarah Palin, she is often taped from the right side.
It was her husband comedian Jeff Richmond who recently broke the silence when he told the media that his wife was randomly attacked by a complete stranger while playing outside of her home when she was only five years old. At the time she thought that she’d been marked by a pen but later came to realize that her face had been cut.
In a recent interview with Vanity Fair magazine Fey, 38, said that despite the traumatic incident she was a confident kid. She is worried about how her childhood incident might play in her role as mother to her 3 year old daughter Alice.
Thankfully her positive attitude and self confidence has allowed her to become a great success, entertaining millions with her SNL skits, television show, and movies.
You can read the full interview in the January 2009 issue of Vanity Fair where Tina Fey appears on the front cover of the magazine.
