Alec Baldwin

Everyone says the movie musical is dead, but don’t tell that to the people who made ‘Rock of Ages,’ the new movie based on the hit stage musical. This one has an amazing all-star cast, including Alec Baldwin, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Paul Giamatti, Mary J. Blige, Russell Brand, Julianne Hough and many others. And oh yeah, Tom Cruise with long hair and no shirt on.

Was Alec Baldwin striking a blow for the common air traveler when he refused to stop playing Words With Friends on his smart phone while his American Airline flight was awaiting takeoff? While his actions may seem justified to some, almost half of Americans think the cell phone rule should be honored.

If you can’t tell by Alec Baldwin’s feud with American Airlines over the whole Words with Friends fiasco, the actor just can’t seem to leave well enough alone. You knew that ‘SNL’ was going to do something about it, but Baldwin actually appeared on the show. And how did he appear? As the pilot of the American Airlines flight he was kicked off of!

He got kicked off a plane, stormed Twitter and… now what? The majority of us by know already know about the whole Alec Baldwin-American Airlines fiasco, but the actor may have left out a few crucial details. According to American Airlines, Alec Baldwin wasn’t thrown off the flight simply for playing ‘Words With Friends’ on his cell phone, as the actor had alleged in a series of Tweets.

When television staple ‘Saturday Night Live’ returns on September 24 for its 37th season, it’ll have a familiar host — actor Alec Baldwin. It will be the record-setting sixteenth time the ’30 Rock’ star, 53, has hosted the NBC late-night sketch comedy show, breaking a tie with another show stalwart, Steve Martin. Baldwin’s first appearance on ‘SNL’ was April 21, 1990.

In separate TV appearances this week, actor Alec Baldwin and comedienne Roseanne Barr both revealed their political ambitions.
