Listen up, tabloid reporters: Alec Baldwin is saying “goodbye to public life. … I’ve lived this for 30 years, I’m done with it.”
In a long piece that appeared under his bylineSunday night on New York Magazine‘s Vulture blog, Baldwin, 55, writes that being labeled a “homophobic bigot” in the media after an altercation with a paparazzo in November 2013 was the last straw for him as a celebrity. (Sound familiar?)
“I loathe and despise the media in a way I did not think possible,” Baldwin writes. “This is the last time I’m going to talk about my personal life in an American publication ever again.”
He also denies that he used a homophobic slur during that infamous confrontation with the photographer. “Do you honestly believe I would give someone like TMZ’sHarvey Levin, of all people, another club to beat me with?” he writes.
