Molly grew up in the same neighborhood as fellow actors Paul Newman, Fred Willard and David Wain. (edit) In 2000, Molly was nominated for an Emmy for her work on Saturday Night Live in the category of Outstanding Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program. (edit) In 2000, Molly was nominated for a Blockbuster Entertainment Award in the category of Favorite Actress - Comedy for her role as Mary Katherine Gallagher in the 1999 film Superstar. (edit) Molly passed Victoria Jackson as the longest female cast member when she left SNL in 2001. (edit) Molly played Monica Lewinsky on SNL with the real Monica Lewinsky after the Presidential sex scandal. (edit)

Molly: I was a leader in grade school, because I went to a small Catholic school. I bossed the girls around. I was very nice, but I was the leader. I'd say 'We're going to play house and I'm going to be the mother, you're going to be the other mother, we're going to pick our kids'. Everybody wanted to be in my family 'cause I was the best mother. In high school, things changed, I wasn't so popular. (edit) Molly: I went to an academically competitive prep school, where the kids all knew one another. It was sort of tough. I didn't really fit in, I used to get obsessed with guys who were unavailable. It was sort of a hard, dark, time for me. (edit) Molly: I was so honored when Lorne Michaels asked me to do a SNL movie, that I said yes immediately, without even knowing anything at all about the project! (edit) Molly: I'm in no way one of those comedians who want to do drama. I really love comedies, I hope to get back to it. (edit) Molly: Saturday Night Live is not a boy's club at all. I haven't had that experience. It is a tough place for men and women, if you don't have your own charcaters, they'll eat you alive. They don't care if you are a man or a woman, I'll defend that till the day I die. (edit)
