- Conan O'Brien shared a story on his podcast about Tina Fey's reaction to her husband Jeff Richmond's appearance in a 2001 'Late Night' sketch.
- Richmond, now a successful composer, was cast as Cupid, wearing a diaper, glitter, and no shirt, while awkwardly spinning on a rope during rehearsal.
- Fey, upon seeing the monitor during rehearsal, jokingly but pointedly confronted O'Brien, saying, 'That's my husband, you f---er. What have you done to him?'
- The sketch, which involved Richmond reading a list of sexually transmitted diseases, was later discussed during Fey's first appearance on O'Brien's show in 2001.
- Fey and Richmond, who met in Chicago's improv scene, have been married since 2001 and have collaborated on numerous projects, including '30 Rock' and 'Mean Girls: The Musical.'
