It may be 2011, but it's only January... and I have put a list together of the 10 funniest women from 2000 - 2010. The women aren't in any specific order, but I have chosen the top woman out of all 10.
Melissa Peterman
How you know her best: She played "Barbara Jean" in the TV show Reba.
Amy Poehler
How you know her best: Skits from SNL or her hit show Parks & Recreation
Betty White
How you know her best: "Rose" from Golden Girls... but from this decade, the grandma from The Proposal or her role in the show Hot in Cleveland.
Chelsea Handler
How you know her best: Her hosting job on the E! show Chelsea Lately
Cloris Leachman
How you know her best: She's been around forever and in movies such as Young Frankenstein. But I believe she's reprised her humorous self in the hit show Raising Hope.
Kirstie Alley
How you know her best: She's been famous from Cheers and other movies, but recently she's sparked my interest in her hilarious shows such as Fat Actress and the reality show Kirstie Alley's Big Life.
Kristen Wiig
How you know her best: SNL and the movie MacGruber
Rachel Dratch
How you know her best: SNL and the hilarious movie Spring Breakdown.
Reba
How you know her best: Well this one is a gimme... but I find her hilarious whenever somebody gives her a mic. I loved her most in her show Reba.
And the most hilarious woman of the decade is... EMMA STONE.
I've never really actually known her to be a comedienne, however she's hilarious and great in all of her films: Superbad, The House Bunny, Zombieland, Easy A... anyways, because of her hilarious performances in these movies, and someone I've found to be most entertaining, she is MY funniest woman of the past 10 years.
