Your bushy-tailed investigative reporter has uncovered the strange truth about comedienne Janeane Garofalo. Her real name is Marsha Schlotnik, and Janeane Garofalo is only a character she portrays.
We spoke to the 53-year-old actress, and she admits:
"Janeane is this insufferable character, like SNL's Debbie Downer, that I've been playing as a complete put-on for the last decade or so. It's funny when I go on Keith Olbermann's show, and say something absolutely idiotic, like 'Those Republicans support Herman Cain, because it's a racist thing, and don't like Obama, because it's a racist thing, and Herman Cain has Stockholm Syndrome, yada, yada, yada...."
We asked her about the Garofalo persona:
"The greasy hair, the glasses, the dyspeptic personality. I knew this Women's Studies professor in college, and I patterned Janeane after her", Marsha Schlotnik disclosed, laughing.
