In 2007, Rachel placed #20 on Oddee's list of the '20 Ugliest Celebrities'. The website states "Don't get us wrong: we love Rachel. Her SNL sketches are hilarious, she's a great actress. But we are sorry to say she truly earned the last place on our list.". (edit)
Rachel admits her comments to New York magazine in April 2008 were pleas to the world for help with her employment future and that they did. (edit)

Quotes

Rachel (on her plans for Passover 2008): I can't go to Passover because I got another job! I have to go to L.A. tomorrow for a pilot. Oh, and you know what else happened? The Craig Ferguson show called me up a couple of days ago and were like, 'Hey, will you do the show again?'. (edit)
Rachel (on the public's reaction to her commnts of unemployment and her future): The cute thing is, three people on the street that day… someone out yelled out of a cab, 'I read New York Magazine, and I think you're great!' Another guy came up to me, like, 'I'm rooting for ya!' And, actually, a couple days after that, I got a job! At the Westport Playhouse, it's [the theater famously revived by] Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward. This is bad, because I don't know if it's called Scrambled with a 'd' or just Scramble. So I'll have to fact-check that. (edit)
Rachel (on her comments of unemployment to New York magazine, to New York magazine a few weeks later): What I actually said was, I'm not doing anything, like, right now. But then when I saw the big word 'UNEMPLOYED,' I was, like, 'Oh, shit.' What I actually said wasn't as dire as the story. But after that came out - you know, you don't want to have the stank of unemployment connected to you. (edit)
Rachel (on not being featured in Vanity Fair's women in comedy cover story, featuring a dozen top comediennes-none of whom was her): Dude, that was a dark day. I was like, Oh, there's everyone I worked with. (edit)
Rachel (in Apr. 2008, on being out-of-work): It's starting to get old, i'm starting to go crazy. I'm ready for a job. I'd work in a black-box theater company at this point. I'd work with George W. (Bush). (edit)
