Some of the biggest names in comedy will honor Tina Fey when the side-splitting SNL alum is awarded the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor at the Kennedy Center in Washington on Nov. 9.

The 40-year-old Emmy winner — whose comedy talents brought us the box office hit Mean Girls and hilarious impressions of Sarah Palin on Saturday Night Live — is the youngest person to ever win the nation’s top humor prize, The Associated Press said Tuesday.

“I am truly thrilled to receive this honor,” Fey exclaimed in a written statement. “I assume Betty White was disqualified for steroid use.”

Fey joins previous Twain Prize recipients previous winners Bill Cosby, Steve Martin, and Lily Tomlin.
