If you haven't heard the voice mail that Alec Baldwin left for his daughter last week, then go to TMZ.COM and listen to it. It is shocking, vulgar, disappointing, and totally heartbreaking.
Those of you out of the celeb-gossip loop a quick recap. Kim Bassinger and Alec Baldwin used to be married. They had a daughter together. When Alec and Kim got divorced things turned ugly and custody was a huge issue.
Well Alec has experienced a career rebirth over the past year and even moved to New York City for his show 30 Rock. He arranged a daily phone time to chat with his daughter. Well last week she didn't answer at their appointed time and he left her a message telling her that she had "humiliated me for the last time," that he wouldn't "play these stupid little games any more," and called her an "immature little pig." To a preteen! His daughter. WTF.
I think that if Kim wanted to revoke all visitation rights to their daughter that she could win that case in court. But, before we jump all over Alec lets look at all the facts.
- Kim has refused every single visitation request from Alec over the past year. Everyone. A judge in their on-going legal battles said that he has "never seen a woman disallow every single request from a father before."
- The arrangement was for Alec to get to talk to his daughter daily.
- Alec apparently adjusted his time to call her numerous times to accommodate both Kim and the daughter.
So, that tells me that Kim is to blame in this too. And that the daughter is being irresponsible. THAT BEING SAID...Alec Baldwin is obviously a giant asshole.
He went as far as to tell his daughter that he would board a plane to L.A. later in the week to come out there and set her straight and put her in her place.
If he is having such a difficult being seperated from his daughter then he should quit his job and move back to L.A. I honestly think that it's as simple as that. He has the means.
And expecting a daughter who is nearly a teenager to want to get a call from her father at the same time each and every night is insane. He really managed to show his ass this time and I don't know that he can keep bouncing back from such terrible reputation busters.
OUT!

You summed up my feelings on this EXACTLY. I think both Kim and Alec are to blame on this issue. That poor kid doesn't have a chance of growing up to be normal. It sucks that Alec feels like he's being shut out of his daughter's life but there is NO excuse to leave a message like that. He sounded so enraged, and even like he was threatening her at times. What an ass.
