Amy Poehler can't host every awards show, but she should really try and attend all of them!

Seriously, because regardless of what's being celebrated, the Parks and Recreation alum is pretty much the best person to have in the audience (sorry, Taylor Swift: Your seat-dancing is cute, but it's not on the same level as this awesomeness.)

Whether she's so not too cool for school about losing yet another Emmy (1. see GIF above) or she's demanding that a host drop their trousers (2. see below), here are 10 GIFs that prove Amy deserves a front row seat at every awards show.

As evidenced in this GIF (3. see above), Amy can masterfully engage with the show's host.

She also knows when to clap politely (4. see below) and support the talent onstage without overshadowing them.

She lets her vulnerabilities shine through and isn't afraid to let someone like Bono offer up a back rub (5. see above). Plus, should the opportunity present itself, she'll happily and hilariously take things to the next level (6. see below)!

Amy's not discriminatory with her seated smooches (7. see George Clooney kiss above)... She's got lots of love for her platonic pals, too (8. below she's cheering on Seth Meyers during his opening monologue.)

When things get boring, Amy makes it quite clear the show's become a snoozefest (9. see above), but she's more than happy to do her part to live things up (10. see below for the eye patch she wore to the 2009 Emmys).

Did we mention she's not a sore loser?!
