I was in a terrible car crash a year ago. It was awful, but it also showed me how much love and support I have in this world…People are wondering: can he speak? Does he have 100% mental capacity? But the truth is I never had 100%. In might actually be a few points higher now.

We’re so happy that you’re OK, but we’re even happier that you’re ready to make people laugh again.

Alec Baldwin interview

Interview0 Comments

Baldwin guests on Conan and talks about news that he is running for mayor of New York and the reactions of some New Yorkers to the rumors. He also talks about his 30 Rock co-star Tracy Morgan and does an uncanny impression of him.

He’s a man-child. He’s a man-boy. He’s very sweet and very sensitive. Like, my image of Tracy is always the first season. And he had this tape he had. And he would lay in his room, he would lay on the couch, he’s really tired, he probably had a late night, and he’s waiting for them to bring him to makeup. It’s like 7 o’clock in the morning, and he’s watching old, Kinescope transfers, ancient media of Jackson Five specials from like, the 70s.

Elle Magazine interview

Interview0 Comments

Baldwin gives interview to Elle about why turning 50 was much worse than turning 40.

Because 30, you’re not old, but you’re not incontrovertibly young anymore. In your twenties, you can write anything off. But once you turn 30, you gotta get serious about everything. So 30 was hard. Forty was not. Fifty, though. You gotta love a man who talks about age like a woman.
