Jessica Williams, 'The Daily Show'

<b>You know her as:</b> Senior Political Analyst, Senior Youth Correspondent, Senior Judicial Correspondent <br><br> <b>Why we like her:</b> The 23-year-old comedian is the fake news program's first-ever female African-American correspondent, and she's infused the show with freshness, vivacity and sass. Unlike other rookies (and some old-timers), she makes her scripts seem natural and unrehearsed, and she's even more hilarious when ad libbing. Simply put, "The Daily Show" is better when Jessica Williams is on it. <br><br> <b>Where else you've seen her:</b> "Just for Kicks" (Nickelodeon), Upright Citizens Brigade <br><br> <i>-- <a href="http://twitter.com/drumoorhouse">Drusilla Moorhouse</a>, <a href="http://www.zap2it.com">Zap2it</a></i>
