Poehler Kills, Garofalo Must Love Dogs

PERFECT TEN Poehler
Surprise guest Amy Poehler traded barbs with The Ten director David Wain last night at a party for the show with Rashida Jones, Seth Herzog, and Michael Showalter, at the Blender Theatre in Manhattan. Poehler, who was in Wain's Wet Hot American Summer deadpanned about the Ten Commandments comedy: "I want to see what happens [to] Bo Derek!" She then shared some news in typically nonsensical style about an upcoming film: "I play Jessica Alba!"

After declaring that she hadn't seen the film yet, "and like you guys, I'll be going to pay money to see it," host Wain responded, "This should be one of your skits on Saturday Night Live!"

Poehler shot back: "You sound like my uncle."

Wain countered, "You should be in Coke commercials."

Janeane Garofalo, who's in the film, did her act and publicly thanked Poehler "for getting me to A.A." in 2001.

Garofalo hurt her lower back, after falling off of a golf cart some years back, due to being drunk. "She seems very sweet and cute," Garofalo said of Poehler, "but you don't want her to be angry with you, because, put it this way, when she shows up very early on Sunday morning with Starbucks for you ... it's not going to be a lot of fun." She added, "I want Vicodin. If I am slightly addicted or get addicted, Amy will come over."

Next for Garofalo is a Lifetime movie she'll film in Ottawa, Canada, in mid-August called Binky, "about a dog, Binky, where my mother passes away and I inherit her Jack Russell Terrier, and I don't initially love the dog, but I go through my mid-life crisis while driving cross-country with [him], and it's one of those movies—journey taken, and then I love the dog."

Radar was unable to determine if she was serious or debuting some of her best comedy in ages.
