Comedian Kate McKinnon

Kate McKinnon is a woman who proves that beautiful women can be funny . . . even when they're playing men. :-D


Yes, the well-liked "Saturday Night Live" repertory cast member is known for playing Hillary Clinton, Kellyanne Conway, and Elizabeth Warren, among other female politicians, but she's even played Rudolph Giuliani, Lindsey Graham, and Jeff Sessions.

Arguably the funniest woman  or even the funniest cast member of either sex currently on "Saturday Night Live," she's conceived characters such as Helga Handler, a Swedish TV presenter who speaks fake Swedish interspersed with English-language obscenities, and Olya Povlatsky, a Russian woman who opines on current events comparing them to outrageous goings-on in her village.

Kate McKinnon has also been in the movies, playing Dr. Jillian Holtzmann in the all-female 2016 remake of Ghostbusters and appearing in the 2017 bachelorette-party comedy Rough Night.  At 35 years of age, Kate McKinnon still has a long career ahead of her. :-)
