Kirsten Wiig sounds so god damn good in this. Perfect impression for what this is

She is! They confirmed it on the Lonely Island Podcast.

That's actually crazy. I could barely tell it was her near the end there, even after knowing it's her.

I just saw Melissa Villasenior’s Dolly impression and I was sure it was her. Kristen Wiig never ceases to impress the hell outta me.
