NBC announced that network superstars Tina Fey and Amy Poehler will host the 70th Annual Golden Globe Awards live on January 13.

The ’30 Rock’ and ‘Parks & Recreation’ stars will replace Ricky Gervais, the decidedly controversial English comedian who has hosted the event for the past three years.

Both of these talented actresses are big draws on NBC so it makes perfect sense to promote two of their most popular network stars.

Poehler and Fey have been partners in crime for many years on ‘Saturday Night Live’ and also co-starred in ‘Mean Girls’ and ‘Baby Mama.’

NBC president Paul Telegdy said, “Tina and Amy have a proven chemistry and comedic timing.” We agree!
