Kicked In The Baldwins
I'm sure by now, everybody has heard Alec Baldwin's voicemail message he left for his daughter. It's become an instant part of pop culture, driving thoughts of Imus and Sanjaya right out of our minds.
First things first, Baldwin is way out of line leaving that kind of message for his daughter. However, we all say stupid things to our kids. The Bill Cosby line about sounding like an idiot in front of his kids because he's constantly censoring himself comes to mind. Baldwin obviously has problems with that control.
The big problem here is that it's no longer a family matter. Proving correct Baldwin's long-time assertions that his ex-wife Kim Basinger is indeed a batshit loonball with no sense of decency, she leaked the tape of the voicemail.
Think, for a moment, about how long in the age of the internet that message will haunt her daughter. Imagine how bad your junior high and high school existence was. Now imagine every time you get something going and you feel moderately cool, somebody loading up the dance remix of your dad calling you a pig and letting it play.
It's eternal hazing by YouTube. It's just not fair.

I completely agree with you, poor kid. Sounds like neither of these lunatics should be raising a monkey, much less a child.
How do you know SHE released the tape? His rep said so, but it could have been anybody. A legal assistant itching for some cash, a court reporter, a maid in Kim Basinger's home....
Just sayin'. :)
What a crazy divorce. I feel for that kid. Alec's tone is so menacing on the voice mail -- he sounds like he's going to come beat the shit out of her. It's so sad that kids bear the brunt of these divorce battles.
