NEW YORK, March 14 (UPI) -- "Inside the Actors Studio" will kick off its 19th season with an in-depth interview with U.S. television and film actress Tina Fey, Bravo Media said.

The former star of "Saturday Night Live" and "30 Rock," who will soon be seen in the big-screen comedy "Admission," will appear on Tuesday's season premiere of "Actors Studio."

The multiple award-winner talked to host James Lipton about her comedy roots in Chicago, being the first female head writer for "Saturday Night Live," serving as co-host of the Golden Globes with Amy Poehler and her role in national politics as a Sarah Palin impersonator.

Asked during the chat who first noticed her resemblance to Palin, Fey joked it was "SNL" producer Lorne Michaels' doorman.

Fey also said in her Palin persona she is against same-sex marriage because "marriage is meant for people who wear different kinds of swim suits."
