Buzz off, Alec Baldwin! You shot a woman dead, have a fake Spanish wife and called your own daughter a pig. After his anti-America rant, CAROLINE BULLOCK has had enough

He dodged a bullet when the manslaughter case against him was dismissed for a fatal on-set shooting in July, but instead of eating the humble pie, actor Alec Baldwin just spews venom.

This time, the New York native took aim at his compatriots during an appearance at the Torino Film Festival in Italy. He used a press conference to condemn “uninformed” Americans for what he claims is their collective ignorance on topics such as climate change and the war in Ukraine.

According to the clumsy Baldwin, Yanks can only process bits of information – usually while mindlessly munching popcorn at the movie theater.

‘There is a gap. There is a vacuum. There is, if you will, a gap in information for Americans,” he said angrily, demonstrating his ability to use a synonym. ‘That vacuum is being filled by the film industry.’

Yep, that’s the same film industry that’s kept him in mansions for almost forty years. You see, as a Brit I admit that we have long assumed a certain cultural superiority over our transatlantic cousins ​​– but this lazy, elitist attack on our own territory smacks of unpatriotic snobbery in its highest form.

As the big roles dry up, the 66-year-old Baldwin tries to portray himself as a studious progressive, but his problem is staying in character when a criminal diva is never far from the surface.

From those sloppy fist bumps at the press to his infamous outrage over Starbucks service, he’s an angry man-child who has always loved his own way.

“Uptight Queen lawyer named JAY has an attitude problem,” he tweeted in 2011, presumably after his coffee failed to arrive with a red carpet rolled out.

And that should not be forgotten terribly An angry voicemail from 2007 calling his then 11-year-old daughter Ireland a “rude, thoughtless little pig” amid a heated custody dispute with ex-wife Kim Basinger.

Of course, as guest of honor at the Torino Film Festival, whose ego was stroked by a meaningless lifetime achievement award, Baldwin was in his element, desperately indulging his intellectual pretensions while simultaneously exposing his excessive ignorance.

When asked about his thoughts on the rise of female film directors, he replied that it’s “a good thing” – as long as they stick to “a comedy or a drama with a lot of talking.” Male directors are better for ‘energetic’ films, he explained.

One female name that was off-limits was Halyna Hutchins, the cinematographer who was shot dead at age 42 with a revolver Baldwin used during rehearsals for the 2021 “Rust” film set.

His appearance this week was reportedly on the condition that the shooting was not mentioned – yet the saga continues to haunt his declining career.

It might even explain why he has to sell his Hamptons mansion, which is now selling for $10 million less than its original price.

It’s also possibly why he’s gearing up for a reality TV show with his wife Hilaria and their seven – yes seven – children.

His Rust shooing could explain why he has to sell his Hamptons mansion, which is now selling for $10 million less than its original price.

It’s also possibly why he’s gearing up for a reality TV show with his wife Hilaria and their seven children.

With a Spanish accent as fake as her husband’s pious victim routine, Hilaria hasn’t helped him. Boston-born, New York University-educated Hillary Lynn has been bizarrely reborn as an honorary Spaniard during her time in the spotlight. She struggled to remember the English word for cucumber when she appeared on NBC’s Today Show and made “authentic” gazpacho.

The couple have tried to redefine themselves as the victims after the tragic Rust shooting, seemingly furious that there should be both some accountability and, God forbid, press interest.

It has led to many tone-deaf performances – including, most notably, posing en famille in Halloween costumes in the immediate aftermath of the tragedy, the kind of family fun that Halyna Hutchins, a mother of one, was sadly denied.

All rude, lame, insulting. So, Alec, maybe stop attacking your fellow Americans and take a deeper look at yourself – maybe you’re the ignorant one.
