TINA FEY’s the new LORNE MICHAELS

Tina Fey

 OOPS!

First ALEC BALDWIN let it slip that next season would be the last for “30 Rock” – now I’m letting slip this BOMBSHELL news: NBC bigs are wooing “Rock” star/creator/Bossypants TINA FEY, former “Saturday Night Live” head writer, to take over the whole “SNL” shebang whenever exec producer LORNE MICHAELS, 66, retires from the show he created in 1975.

(Let’s stand up and shout, America…“YAY!!”)

Said an NBC source: “The execs feel no one’s better qualified to take over the reins than Tina. Having her onboard guarantees the show’s success after Lorne leaves.”

Insiders say Tina, who’s pregnant with her second child, loves the idea of helming “SNL” – and because the show takes many breaks throughout the season, it fits her mommy schedule perfectly.
