Alec Baldwin's Nevertheless: A Memoir is out this month, and Vanity Fair has an excerpt in which the actor discusses his Saturday Night Live hosting stints, 30 Rock, and, of course, his President Trump impression. Five stories:
- On his decision to do a TV show: He learned about the schedule for making one from Megan Mullally when he guest-starred on Will & Grace. "Television moves along. On films, you can sit around interminably. You hope the result is worth it. But you also think about all of the weddings, family gatherings, and overall moments of your life that you miss while shooting."
- On his first impression of Tina Fey: She was the head writer at SNL at the time. "When I first met Tina Fey—beautiful and brunette, smart and funny, by turns smug and diffident and completely uninterested in me or anything I had to say—I had the same reaction that I’m sure many men and women have: I fell in love." He asked the talent coordinator if Fey was single and was pointed in the direction of Fey's husband.
