Say What? Alec Baldwin on Skinny Minnies in Hollywood

TresSugar — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 11:00:00 -0700

"Women today are so skinny. If I did a love scene with them, I would crush them. If I did a love scene with Renee, I would kill her."

- 30 Rock star Alec Baldwin on why he's glad he doesn't get cast as the love interest in movies anymore. Baldwin was hosting Elle magazine's annual Women in Hollywood dinner and awards show and made these remarks after the famously svelte Zellweger was honored.

Do, Dump, or Marry? Alec Baldwin

Last night we were treated to the season premiere of 30 Rock's fourth season and Alec Baldwin's Emmy-winning portrayal of Jack Donaghy, Vice President of East Coast Television and Microwave Oven Programming.

I never thought much of Alec until 30 Rock, but what can I say? Humor is a turn on. It's not often I find an older man attractive, but maybe I'll make an exception for him. Or perhaps arrange a sexless marriage?

A Wii Problem: Can Alec Baldwin Go From Actor to Governor?

TresSugar — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 10:25:04 -0700

Minnesota has Al Franken for senator, so why can't Ohio get Alec Baldwin to run for governor? The timing is perfect. The 51-year-old actor has already announced his plans to retire from acting after 30 Rock wraps up in 2012, and he hasn't exactly been shy about voicing his political ambition. Now an opportunity has fallen in his lap like a hot movie script.

Alec confirmed to Playboy that an Ohio law firm approached him to run for governor, essentially saying, "Mr. Baldwin, here's who we represent, the kinds of cases we handle, our credentials in Ohio state politics. We want you to move to Ohio and run for governor. We will launch your career."

Sounds easy! But he's the first to point out there are more than a few skeletons in his closet, telling Playboy, "If I do [go into politics], these guys will have a field day. I've given them so much crap to use against me - Canteen Boy, Schweddy balls. I just did the Wii sketch. Did you see that? . . . Google or YouTube that one; it's just ridiculous. While I'm doing it, I'm thinking, If I run for political office, they'll have a forest of material to kill me with."

So we Googled it. And he's right, personal problems aside, his Saturday Night Live clips alone are primed to offend the most humorless Ohioans and, um, anyone with Schweddy
balls . . .

Let's start with the Wii clip! (Thanks, Alec.)

Want more? Watch SNL skits ("Schweddy Balls," "Canteen Boy," and "Cougar Den") after the jump!

Alec Baldwin Coming to an Election Near You?

LibertySugar — Thu, 08 May 2008 15:45:08 -0700

Alec Baldwin is getting ready to retire from acting. The Democratic actor just sat down with 60 Minutes to discuss his future in . . . politics!

Now that he's turning 50, Alec says he's ripe for elected office. I say -now that he's 50, he also has more skeletons in his not-so-private closet.

But, Alec says he's ready for the public scrutiny, and will be more careful about his actions. He explained:

You can pretty much bet all you own that I would never leave another voicemail message for my daughter that wasn’t just like something out of a Rogers and Hammerstein score.

Want to hear more of this? The whole interview will air this Sunday.

Alec has had politics on the brain for a while. Back in 2004, Alec had strong words for fellow actor Arnold Schwarzenegger, saying "if the largest, most economically significant state in America could elect a man who is totally unqualified for the job, then they can elect anyone."

Going back even further, in 2000 Alec said he would move to Canada if George W. Bush was elected. Guess he couldn't find a flight!

Do you think Americans want to cast movie stars as their leaders? Would you vote for Alec?

Hey, Alec. Yeah, buddy, it's your daughter Ireland. She finally listened to your message (along with millions of other outraged listeners) and she has a few choice words for you, you big fart-face, hack bully.

Alec Baldwin's Excuse

GiggleSugar — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 10:00:00 -0700

Shamed stars have come up with some pretty wild excuses to cover up for their bizarre behavior. Mel Gibson went to rehab for anti-Semitism. Lindsay Lohan's partying got her admitted to the hospital for "exhaustion." Alec Baldwin knows that rehab and hospital stays are played out, so in his latest PR move, he explains who that abusive phone call to his daughter Ireland was really supposed to be for...
