MTV Remote Control Blog › Tina Fey

We've all seen 30 Rock parade out the guest stars this season in the (apparently misguided) hopes of boosting ratings. And while Oprah and Jennifer Aniston's cameos failed to attract viewers to the too-smart-to-be-popular NBC sitcom, there's one more celeb who's ready to pick up where they left off: Sean "Diddy" Combs.

"I'm definitely trying to holler at Tina Fey," Diddy tells E! Online. "Me and Tracy [Morgan], we've been talking, and we got a scheme up our sleeves. I'm definitely trying to get in on that in the next two years, for real."

+ Think Diddy's got what it takes to save 30 Rock from dying a slow, Studio 60 death? We sure hope so! Otherwise it's only a matter of time before Tina Fey's laugh-out-loud comedy gets yanked off the air -- and replaced with (yet) another tired Friends ripoff.

This weekend, presidential hopeful and self-declared "Sad Grandpa" John McCain swung by NBC's Saturday Night Live to show voters he has a sense of a humor -- and slightly above-average comedic timing. Fortunately for "Mac", the Republican had a little help from SNL vet Tina Fey, who donned a designer suit and a thick Alaskan accent to impersonate beehived/bespectacled hockey mom-turned-VP nominee, Sarah Palin.

The big shocker? Most of the good lines went to McCain, who artfully poked fun at his campaign's relative shortage of funds -- and celeb donors -- and even gave our very own Heidi Montag a shout-out! (Well, y'know, another one.) Anyhow, check out the video, then let us know whether you think Spencer should be jealous of Heidi's major "in" with the Senator...
