5. Kristin Wiig
With over six years on Saturday Night Live under her belt, Kristin Wiig is undoubtedly one of the funniest women currently working in comedy. And now that her raunchy comedy Bridesmaids is a certified box-office smash, Wiig can add those scribe skills to her resume, too.
Which means she could have actually saved Jack and Jill's comedically limp script with her writing and her wit. And, judging from her many SNL personas, from "Target lady" to "surprise party fanatic", Wiig may actually be stranger than Sandler. The only thing they don't have in common? Wiig doesn't like to sing.
