Alec Baldwin Goes Retirement Chic

Alec Baldwin's new crew is hip .. and may also be in need of some new ones!


TMZ caught Baldwin outside of Letterman in New York yesterday afternoon, where he grabbed two seemingly random old folks outside and proceeded to give his "dear friends from St. Augustine, Florida" some tips for posing for paps.

During the show<, Letterman asked Alec about his relationship with daughter Ireland -- the daughter he left the now infamous brutal cell phone message for, released by TMZ. Alec said his friends thought "releasing that [tape] was worse than chewing out a kid ... my mother used to hit us with a curtain rod ... and that video's going to be on TMZ as well."


For those of you who've been asking, TMZ does not have the curtain rod video.

NOW, NOW,EVEN SPIRITED DONA, (THAT IS MY VIDEO BLOGGER NAME, I GOOGLE AS), SAYS TMZ I IS SHOWING US ALEC ,OUT AND ABOUT TALKING TO FOLKS IN NEW YORK, THE WAY HE USED TO DO, BEFORE THE TAPE WAS OVERBLOWN. TMZ IS MAKING ME FEEL POSITIVE. I ADMIT TMZ MADE ME CRY, AS I HAVE SEEN ALEC BEING FATHERLY AND UNCLE LIKE TOWARDS OTHERS, AND BEFORE THE TAPE, I USED TO TELL EVERYONE HOW I LOVED HIM FOR IT. I TOOK IT PERSONALLY. MY DAD{NEVER} WANTED TO CALL ME. ALEC LOST IT FOR THE RIGHT REASON.

18. Its not always cut and dry.

Kim Basinger had a special on HBO about her panic attacks. She is still a babe, but she has some serious problems of her own.

Alec is a jerk for leaving that msg to his daughter, but it was just a msg. SHe will get over it.

Alec is still the coolest Baldwin, of course that is not saying much....

Except for Steven's Pothead ass, he is the coolest!

19. sometimes you have to physically discipline a kid and it doesn't make it child abuse

I have a saying - most of the people I can't stand were never spanked as a child.

y'all need to toughen up. this is why kids these days are so snotty.

25. Did you catch his comment? He calls that "chewing out a kid"? That's all he thinks it was? Figures! Every time I see him, all I think of is that vulgar call he made to his own daughter. Nothing will ever change my mind about him ....especially since now I hear he thinks it's just "chewing out a kid"! He should have been thrown in jail. He's not funny .. he's an idiot.

30. SPIRITED DONA MISSED THE COMMENT PAGE. SOMEONE JOKED I WAS DRINKING. IRONICALLY, ON MY VIDEO, "HAPPY FATHER'S DAY, ALEC BALDWIN, RESPECTFULLY", I DO A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT ASKING PEOPLE NOT TO DRINK A "DROP" AND DRIVE. I DO A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT OR CHARITY SUGGESTION TO PONDER, ON EVERY VIDEO BLOG, I DO. DECIDE FOR YOURSELF IF MY VIDEO IS RIGHT ON TARGET, OR NOT, BY WATCHING NOT GUESSING.
