Alec Baldwin Mail Order Bride Joke Causes Uproar (Video)

30 Rock star Alec Baldwin was joking around recently on The Late Show with David Letterman about getting himself a mail-order bride from the Philippines. His flip comedic statement might have been a mistake. In fact, he has angered a Phillipine Senator, who is hitting back hard with a prediction that the actor may face violence if he ever visits.

The actor is no stranger to controversy. The public divorce between Baldwin and actress Kim Bassinger became a ‘he said, she said’ war of words that played out on the world stage. It even caused a heated controversy involving his 13 year old daughter Ireland, when a taped conversation that the actor left on her cell phone hit the internet. In the audio tirade, he unleased a firestorm of rage on his daughter, calling her a thoughtless little pig.

Baldwin told Letterman that he would love to have more children. He explained to the talk show host that he is “thinking about getting a Filipino mail-order bride at this point…or a Russian one.”

Philippine Sen. Ramon Revilla called Baldwin arrogant and labeled his remarks insensitive, uncalled for and an insult to millions of Filipinos. Revilla went on to say that it is against the law to buy a “mail-order” bride. In what sounded very much like a threat, he said, “Let him try to come here to the Philippines and he’ll see mayhem.”

Meg — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 12:07:42 +0000

Alec Baldwin is on a roll with some interesting comments about his female 30 Rock guest stars. He recently reported that kissing Jennifer Aniston is “painful”. He expanded on his first utterances with other media outlets in order to turn it into a more positive response. But that was last weeks news. This week it’s a love fest with Salma Hayek.

Baldwin told People magazine, “She was literally the most fabulous woman that I’ve ever worked with.” Wow, the guy sounds smitten.

When the same interviewer caught up with Hayek last night at the CNN Heroes tribute award show, the actress was equally kind in her remarks about Baldwin. “We had such a great time. I love Alec to death. He energizes me…because he is so talented. He really, truly inspires me.”

Check out a recent video of Hayek with David Letterman. She tells the story of how she got her ample breasts – funny.

Alec Baldwin on Jennifer Aniston Kissing Scene: “It Was Painful”

Meg — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 14:42:24 +0000

Alec Baldwin was minding his own business last night at a Time Warner Center gala when a Huffington Post reporter tapped him on the shoulder and tried to get the ’skinny’ on his recent kissing scene with Jennifer Aniston on 30 Rock.

When prompted to dish about his guest co-star, Baldwin offered, “It was painful. I mean, every man who had to make out with her on TV and movies, I don’t know how they do it.”

We’re not sure if he meant ‘painful’ in a physical sense or a mental sense. We’ll let our readers decide for themselves.

Aniston played a ‘crazy putty’ character in an episode that implied that unstable women are better in bed. HP baited Baldwin by asking if he thought that this premise is true in real life. Baldwin, who was married to and then repeatedly trashed his ex Kim Bassinger, wouldn’t bite on that one. He did say that he didn’t think the premise held true for crazy men and then decided he needed to clarify: “I will say this on the record, I never slept with a crazy man.”

We don’t make the news…..we just report it.
