If a girl’s looks can make your head turn, it’s a good day. If that same sexy girl has the comedic chops to make you cry from laughter, you’ve got a keeper. These ladies from TV and movies today show that funny is the new sexy!

1) Tina Fey

After working mostly behind the scenes on SNL, we finally got to see her awesome comedic timing with her impeccable impressions of Sarah Palin during the ’08 elections. Combine that with her adorably awkward Liz Lemon role on 30 Rock, and you’ve got one of the most successful and sexy nerds of all time.

2) Sarah Silverman

Most of Sarah Silverman’s comedy is so raunchy it can’t be shown on cable television, and yet somehow that just makes her a little hotter in our eyes. Incredibly funny, totally sexy, and filthy rich? It’s crazy to think that she was once fired from the writing staff of SNL!

3) Chelsea Handler

Don’t let that sweet innocent smile trick you, Chelsea Handler is the queen of mean-spirited celebrity gossip! Alright, maybe it is all in fun, but I sure wouldn’t want to have to face her wit and dry sarcasm. Still, her sexiness paired with viciousness makes her the ultimate package.

4) Kristen Wiig

The saving grace of SNL today, Kristen Wigg is a riot, creating the most cringe-worthy,  awkward characters on the show. From Gilly, to Penelope, to my personal favorite, the Target Lady. You’d never think of her as mind-blowingly hot, but this picture begs to differ.

5) Aisha Tyler

She’s been working her way to the top for some time now. From her humble begininnings on Talk Soup, to her recent hilarious appearance on Curb Your Enthusiasm, the sky is the limit for this smokin’-hot comedian. This picture makes us look forward to the future even more!
