Kids going as their parents' dates to awards nights are simply the cutest! And comedian Tina Fey's daughter is no exception. In her best party dress, Alice Richmond is like a tiny replica of her hilarious mother. We can only hope she has also inherited all of those funny genes - we need more people like Tina Fey in the world.
Alice was born in 2005 and her sister Penelope followed six years later in 2001. They are Fey's children with long-term partner and husband, Jeff Richmond. The couple have been together since 1994, making them a pretty long-standing duo for the celebrity world. Though she rose to fame performing sketch comedy on Saturday Night Live, Fey is now known for her other television shows, 30 Rock and The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, as well as the numerous films, including Mean Girls.
Chefs made their way into celebrity land a while ago. But how many celebrities that weren’t trained as professional cooks are actually whizzes in the kitchen? Here are several that come to mind.
Actress Julia Roberts is confident about her cooking skills. “I’m quite a good cook,” she told E! News. “I’m like a closet home ec teacher…I can really cook anything.” Roberts has said she often cooks fish for herself and her kids. And speaking of her three children, “They think that I’m a good cook,” Roberts told People. “They actually told me that I should open a restaurant.” She also relishes cooking for the holidays, particularly shredded Brussel sprouts. Roberts hasn’t published a cookbook, but we did find recipes attributed to her for peach crisp and banana hemp muffins. Or you can make the same summer salad the actress supposedly eats.
Chrissy Teigen started off as a supermodel. Then her love of cooking filtered into her professional life too. At this point, she’s created recipes for a limited Blue Apron release and also just launched her own home and cooking line at Target named “Cravings,” after the two cookbooks she’s released. Teigen describes cooking as “a time of peace” for herself. So maybe peace out to her tuna melt sandwich or the fried chicken wings that are a favorite of her husband, John Legend.
Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, comes from a cooking Italian family. Her father started his own restaurant in New York and also published a cookbook. And apparently, Lady Gaga has inherited the family’s cooking genes. Her Instagram account occasionally features photos of her culinary activities. Sure, sometimes it’s topless cooking. But other times it’s more poignant like in the post she shared about her bringing food to the family of her dear friend who passed away. Want to try a Gaga/Germanotta family favorite?
