Hotter (and Funnier) Than Ever, the Saturday Night Live Scene-stealer and Doting Dad Is Counting His Blessings
Welcome to Alec Baldwin’sglorious third act. You maydimly recall Baldwin 1.0(brooding, glacier-eyed,hirsute leading man), and you may still be trying forget Baldwin 2.0 ( jeez, could that hothead throw a tantrum). But Baldwin 3.0? That funny guy and family guy, Match Game host and Yoga-mellowed charmer? He’s a keeper, and he’s on a roll. At 59, the New Yorker is busier than ever, helping boost Saturday Night Live to its best ratings in 20 years with his wicked parodies of Donald Trump, which will continue next season. And on July 9 he’ll be toasted and roasted by famous friends in One Night Only: Alec Baldwin, a Spike TV special. It’s all good, but the very best part? Downtime with wife Hilaria, 33, and their three children, Carmen, 3, Rafael, 2, and Leonardo, 10 months, and his daughter Ireland, 21, with his ex, actress Kim Basinger. “My whole life is about my wife and my kids,” Baldwin told People just before taping his Spike show. “Everything I do, or don’t do, is about that now.”
In your new special, loved ones give you a “This Is Your Life” treatment—with zingers. Ready?
I think I am. I’m told that there are some surprises and maybe some painful moments of mockery ahead of me, but that’s okay. I can handle it. There’s nothing they can say that I haven’t already heard.
The theme of the roast is looking back. When y reflect on your life, how have you changed?
