Well, in the sense that they are both enjoying a boost from their Saturday Night Live impersonators. And while Tina Fey with her proximity to Russia jokes may have gotten the huge ratings, the staccato CNBC host says she's now melding closer and closer to Kristin Wiig's impersonation of her. How (Charlie) Kaufman-esque.
And then there is the ultimate signal of Orman’s arrival as a full-fledged media superstar: Kristen Wiig’s uncanny impersonation of her on “Saturday Night Live.”
The finance guru calls the impersonation the “greatest honor of my career.”
“I love it,” Orman says. “I was in the audience for it recently. The real problem is that now, I do my own show every Saturday night and I start doing all these things that make me go, ‘Ugh. I’m playing Kristen Wiig.’ I mean, it’s just very good. She has got me down.”
You can catch Wiig's impression here.

Wiig's imitation is spot-on. She rocks and is the best thing to happen to SNL in years.
I saw OrmaN's show the other night for the first time in ages. Did the network tell her to become more "animated"? (read: obnoxiously over-done). Come on. I thought I was watching World Wrestling…. or Bill O'Reilly. :)
How can anyone take her seriously when she acts so immature? (Maybe those who DID take her seriously are broke now?)
