Conspiracy Theory: Is Alec Baldwin on the take?

Not that I can figure out.

However, if he wasn’t already their spokesperson, no doubt he is even now signing the deal.

But he might lose his mileage card ad gig. I know that I saw that commercial yesterday and felt a funny frisson knowing Alec Baldwin had been kicked off a plane.

Whoa…..look at Magnum PI over here….....lol.

It is possible, although I don’t know if it’s illegal. I love words with friends, though. I once got 66 points with ‘Quiz’.

@Blackberry

Would you say that WWF is more addicting than Scrabble?

Sorry but the odds that Alec Bald one was sitting and playing scrabble just doesn’t fly with me. It’s all publicity to benefit Jinga and his own career image. “Oh look Mabel, A.B. is so clever he plays word games. Maybe he is not as dumb as he portrays.”

The misspelingz are intentional so I do not add to their hit numbers.

I am obsessed with WWF. The only perk it has over Scrabble is that you can play multiple games anywhere, anytime.

I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if you’re right, particularly because the WWF Facebook page posts something daily about how addictive the game is, that seems to be how they advertise the game.

@Brian1946 Yeah, only because you can play online with people.

No, it’s really addicting.

@zensky Lol, yeah it is. We can even chat with people while playing.

Love those word games.

It’s also not on the take, per se, it’s paid product placement.

All actors are on the take, he just happens to have a very clever agent.

Many ‘celebs’ are paid for endorsements, being photographed with products that end up in trashing magazines (like People). Movies help fund their budgets by getting huge dollars for product placement. (Did you know, that in the movie ET, the original idea was to use another product (M&Ms) and not Reeses Pieces? When the producers went to the M&M-Mars candy manufacturer, they refused the deal because they didn’t want their product to be associated with an ugly alien creature. This was back in the day when the corporates didn’t pay for every product placement. Hershey’s agreed to a ‘tie in’ with the movie, with packaging and marketing )

Remember Lindsey Lohan and those lollipops? She was paid to be photographed eating them and be quoted in magazines, telling people she loved them blah blah blah… Yeah… It’s money, and it’s legal.

I don’t know if Alec Baldwin did it for that reason or not. He may really just have wanted to carry on with his game and it wasn’t a planned thing. I also know that flight crews can be bitchy and they can keep you at the gate for some time before the plane even starts to taxi. I feel imprisoned on a plane when it isn’t doing what it should be doing… which is travelling in the direction of my destination.

I’m thinking that perhaps he’s just a douche with a penchant for tantrums. He didn’t leave his own daughter those shitty phone messages to further his career.

for the record i think he is a fantastic actor, just a shitty human being.

I don’t think that in this era of instant communication one can be a “great actor” and a shitty human being. The latter will affect the former some point, catch up – and derail its career pronto. Like Mel.
