As part Q&A Broad City‘s Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer peppered, the Sleater-Kinney trio – Carrie Brownstein, Corin Tucker and Janet Weiss –  with some great questions on creative restlessness, feminism, gender-based pigeonholing, audience and media expectations and commercialism.

Watch the new Sleater-Kinney video featuring Ellen Page, Miranda July, Natasha Lyonne, Sarah Silverman and so many more of our faves sing the band’s new song, “No Cities to Love,” which is the title track off their album, coming out next Tuesday.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler Hilarious Opening Monologue From the Golden Globes

This is why we love these two funny ladies. They don’t hold back, roasting everyone from Bill Cosby to ‘The Interview’ and George Clooney.

That’s right the duo left no superstar unscathed, during their opening monologue at the 72nd Golden Globe Awards, which opened with Fey delivering the warmest of introductions:

“Good evening, good evening, and welcome you bunch of despicable, spoiled, minimally talented brats”

Tina Fey

The two comedians – who announced this would be their last year hosting the awards show – took the time to turn their attention to the crowd. Poehler praised Reese Witherspoon for doing all of her own walking in Wild, Fey took aim at George Clooney, mentioning the actor’s recent marriage to Amal Alamuddin, saying…

“Amal is a human rights lawyer who worked on the Enron case, was an advisor to Kofi Annan regarding Syria, and was selected for a three person UN commission investigating rules of war violations in the Gaza strip. So tonight, her husband is getting a Lifetime Achievement Award!”

Amy Poehler

Poehler and Fey then divvied up Hollywood’s hottest men in a quick game of “Who Would You Rather”.

And Proving nothing is sacred, Fey and Poehler then offered an alternative plot line for ‘Into the Woods’ in which Sleeping Beauty just thought she was getting coffee with Bill Cosby.

This is the third year the two have hosted the awards. Their friendship and chemistry have spurred a fun, irreverent, and sharp brand of humor that seamlessly fits the casual vibe of The Globes. Tonight was no exception.

Amy Poehler’s Perfect Responce on What It’s Like To Be a Woman

In an interview with The Approval Matrix, Amy Poehler was asked by host Neal Brennan about modern men and the difficulties they face.

Poehler responded beautiful:

[tweet_dis]”Well, this feeling that you’re having right now — which is like, ‘I’m sup  posed to be all things’ — is a feeling that women have every day and have their whole lives. So you’re just starting to experience it now.”[/tweet_dis]

Amy Poehler

She perfectly describes the battle that ladies everywhere face: the expectation to be in charge but not so much so that it gets you fired; to be sexy yet modest; to be all for girl power, except when sexuality is involved.

[tweet_dis]“We have to deal with all those juxtapositions every day, but I’m glad you’re finally experiencing it as a white male.”[/tweet_dis]
