Hamming it up on the red carpet of a Broadway premiere, Alec Baldwin, paused to pose for the photographers and poke fun at the press. Oozing charm and finesse, the 30 Rock funnyman joked about his family, his co-stars and his view on a??stripping midgets.a??
What is an album that defines your life? (Yes, ita??s a weird questiona?| but I admit ita?| I didna??t ask this one. I overheard the reporter next to me ask him this, and I figured I might as well share the answer with youa?| even if it wasna??t intended for me. Call me sneaky.)
Alec: What is an album that defines my life? What a cruel question to ask! Um. An album that defines my life?
(Melodramatically.) Well, I want to think of something really sensitive and painful and beautiful. Tapestry by Carol King. I played that album over and over again when I was young. It means so much to me.
(Laughing) I dona??t know! I couldna??t answer that question. There are so many. An album? Like, from my childhood? Sticky Fingers by the Rolling Stones. I mean, you know what I mean. You know. Tommy. You know!
Oh, the first album I bought? Um, Beatles 65. Shhh. (Mumbling under his breath.) Beatles 65
Considering ita??s such a hilarious ensemble of people, do you have any funny stories from the set of 30 Rock?
Alec: Um. We were gonna have a?? this actually relates to you in the press. We were going to have a midget stripper come and strip for Tina for her birthday but we changed our minds because we thought that the newspapers might have taken it the wrong way.
(Pointing at me with a playfully mocking tone.) Youa??re turning red! Have you had a midget stripper before? (Gesturing to the other reporters and raising his voice.) Look how red shea??s turning!
You caught mea?| So, whata??d you do for her birthday since you didna??t get her a a??stripping midget?a??
Alec: Got her a cake and sang happy birthday.
xoxo,
Lauren
