Jon Hamm, Chris Evans, and More Gear Up For the Super Bowl With NFL Honors

Allie Merriam — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 13:34:46 PST

Alec Baldwin played host last night at the NFL Honors in Indianapolis. The city will host the Super Bowl in just a few hours, but yesterday was all about handing out prizes to players not hitting the field tonight. It was the first-ever NFL Honors ceremony, bringing out stars like Jon Hamm, Lenny Kravitz, Chris Evans, Emmanuelle Chriqui, and Katy Perry.

Jon took the stage to present New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees with his Offensive Player of the Year statue, while Chris, Emmanuelle, and Taylor passed out further awards. Alec kept the crowd laughing with NFL-themed jokes all evening. He quipped about the sheer size of the NFL, saying, "It would take 800 years for the Kardashians to date and destroy all of them." Alec even tried his hand at "Tebowing," doing Denver Bronco star Tim's signature move.

Alec Baldwin Talks His Words With Friends Dustup and Politics in the Press Room

Lindsay Miller — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 20:48:15 PST

Alec Baldwin made an appearance backstage in the press room at tonight's SAG Awards just after snagging the honor for outstanding performance by a male actor in a comedy series. True to form, the 30 Rock star wasn't shy about discussing his current political views, and he also made light of his recent in-flight Words With Friends flap. Here are the highlights:

On his opinion of the 2012 primary: "The thing about the campaign that concerns me most is, how is Gingrich going to be able to retract all the things he's said about Romney once he becomes a nominee?"

On why he feels more comfortable sharing political views today vs. when he started out: "What's changed is that, and thankfully what's evolved over time is, there are better forums to give that opinion ... when [I] started, quite frankly, entertainment journalism and these entertainment talk shows were fairly new, and they weren't omnipresent ... and during the time that they've grown, people have had to learn the lesson that that's not the best place to -that you should keep it light. CNN, The Huffington Post, are good places to air those views."

On whether he still is ever afraid to voice his opinions: "I'm still scared to speak out. I want season seven [of 30 Rock] really badly. I want us to come back for another season. When you do speak out, it does cost you. The ones that are the most successful film stars today and have the most potent careers are the ones you know virtually nothing about ... they're very smart to do that."

On whether he's still playing his favorite game: "I am still playing Words With Friends ... but now on Virgin Atlantic."

George Clooney attended the National Board of Review Awards gala with girlfriend Stacy Keibler last night at NYC's Cipriani 42nd Street. Many other stars went out for the Big Apple event as well, include a Nina Ricci-wearing Keira Knightley and Emma Stone in J. Mendel.

George was on hand to pick up a best actor statue for The Descendants, and his leading lady, a L'Wren Scott-clad Shailene Woodley took home best supporting actress. We Need to Talk About Kevin's Tilda Swinton wore Haider Ackermann to accept best actress, and Emma Stone joined costars Octavia Spencer, Jessica Chastain, and Viola Davis onstage to collect their best ensemble film statue for The Help. Hugo, meanwhile, was crowned best movie. Michael Fassbender, who looked great in his suit, won a special spotlight award for the many films he starred in last year.

Rock of Ages Trailer: Tom Cruise, Alec Baldwin, Catherine Zeta-Jones Serve Up Rock & Cheese

Becky Kirsch — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 12:20:04 PST

If you're a fan of the Rock of Ages musical, you might find yourself cheering and clapping along with the trailer for the big-screen version of the show. If you're like me (who has never seen the show), then you might be a little more confused as to what this movie is actually about. The preview does a fine job of playing up its selling points: there's a huge cast (that features Alec Baldwin, Tom Cruise, Russell Brand, and Catherine Zeta-Jones) and tons of familiar '80s rock tunes (like "Any Way You Want It" and "We're Not Gonna Take It"). Other than that, all that we can glean is that Baldwin's character owns a club and Zeta-Jones is determined to take it down.

Apparently, the real story here is about Diego Boneta's character's rise to fame, and his puppy love story with Julianne Hough. But Boneta is barely even seen in the trailer, and instead, it's mostly about Tom Cruise as a sex symbol rock star. I'm not sure this has the makings of a great film, but it did succeed in one respect: I'll most definitely be humming Journey songs for the rest of the day.

Watch Alec Baldwin Do Impressions of Tracy Morgan and Michael Jackson

Alec Baldwin stopped by Conan this week to chat about 30 Rock, and Conan couldn't resist asking him about his enigmatic costar, Tracy Morgan. Baldwin lovingly refers to him as a "man-child," but the best part is when Baldwin not only impersonates Morgan, he also gets up and sings a little Jackson Five-era Michael Jackson. Watch now.

Sarah Jessica Parker and Naomi Watts Support the McCartneys' Ballet!

Allie Merriam — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 06:52:18 PDT

Stella McCartney, Naomi Watts, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Jessica Seinfeld dressed up for the New York City Ballet's Fall Gala last night at NYC's Lincoln Center. SJP, who's a self-confessed ballet addict, was decked out in a lace dress from Stella's collection while Naomi was clad in a white Stella pantsuit. It was a big evening for the McCartneys, as Paul was there with his soon-to-be wife Nancy Shevell. The ballet, called Ocean's Kingdom, was actually written by Paul, and it's his first foray into the genre. The project gave Paul a chance to collaborate with his daughter, Stella, as she designed the dancers' costumes. She was well aware of the endeavor's prestige. Stella said of working with her famous dad, "On one side, I am a daughter working with her father, which is an incredibly remarkable experience in life no matter who your father is. It's also quite an emotional thing. On another side, I know and understand I am working with Paul McCartney." Stella's husband, Alasdhair Willis, was on hand to cheer her and Paul on, as was her brother James McCartney.

Alec Baldwin Buys a Posh Pre-War Pad in NYC

Julia Walsh — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 12:10:00 PDT

30 Rock star Alec Baldwin has scooped up a 4,137-square-foot, four-bedroom, and four-and-one-half bath classic pre-war condo in the heart of Greenwich Village for a cool $12.5 million. Baldwin's new digs are in Devonshire House, a historic building designed by architect Emery Roth, which features a blend of Moorish masonry and British detailing as well as casually elegant modern interiors designed by acclaimed designer Victoria Hagan. The building's design is inspired by the Piccadilly, London, estate of the Duke of Devonshire, named Devonshire House. While the Devonshire family crest and other period English details embellish the façade and lobby, Roth also brought the vibrant social and artistic life of Greenwich Village to the design with Italianate motifs.

Come take a peek at Baldwin's gorgeous new home! Prepare to be envious!
