I LOVE Tina Fey, and I have always wanted to know what happened to her face. It drove me crazy that Tina, my friend, would not tell me what happened. Thanks to her husband, I now know:
Tina Fey's husband is talking about something the "30 Rock" actress would rather not discuss: the scar on her left cheek.
In an interview in Vanity Fair, Jeff Richmond says a stranger slashed Fey's face when she was 5 years old. He says the incident occurred in the front yard of her house.
Says Richmond: "That scar was fascinating to me. This is somebody who, no matter what it was, has gone through something. And I think it really informs the way she thinks about her life."
Fey says talking about the attack would seem like exploiting it.
Says Fey: "It's really almost like I'm able to forget about it, until I was on-camera, and it became a thing of `Oh, I guess we should use this side' or whatever. Everybody's got a better side."

Wow. I used to wonder, but I guess I forgot about it too. That's crazy if that is really how she got it.
You know, I really hope that Tina's husband received her permission to relay such a personal story.
While I was kinda pleased to find out what truly happened to her, I feel like I shouldn't have... like it's her story to tell that he told.
(I'm protective of my Tina Fey.)
Yeah, that is horrible. I wonder how many times she is asked that in interviews. That has to be hard that in her business people focus on that so much.
I know! I felt like I was talking about her or something!
