Let My Man Be Great

When Alec Baldwin returned to his NYC apartment yesterday evening after handling that "misunderstanding" at the hospital earlier in the day, he found a bunch of paps clicking in his face. The paps obviously didn't get the memo that when you run into Alec Baldwin on the street, you stand really still and hope he doesn't see you. The NYDN reports that one of the photographers tapped Alec on the arm to get him to smile really purdy-like for the camera. Alec grabbed at the pap, and the police had to pull Alec off of him. While Alec walked into his building, he was heard muttering under his bref, "They are the scum of the Earth."

"Scum of the Earth" is 2010's "rude thoughtless little pig."

Lol let me stop, I mean honestly if someone touches me that I don't know AND you're trying to make money off of me I might have to be held back as well....Let my man be great damn.

A source close to Alec seems to think that his ex-wife Kim Basinger is the one who tipped off the paps. The source also says that Kim is the one who got Alec into this mess in the first place. On Wednesday night, Alec got into a fight with their daughter Ireland over the phone. Alec told Ireland he was going to take an Ambien and go to bad. When Ireland told her mother about this, Kim told her to call 911. The source added that Kim was just trying to make Alec look crazy, "This is another example of Kim's sickness."

Alec was released from the hospital after doctors determined that he was not trying to harm himself.
