STEVE MARTIN AND ALEC BALDWIN TO TAG TEAM HOST THE OSCARS.

From The Wrap


Breaking with tradition, a pair of hosts -- Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin --
will serve as co-hosts of the 82nd Academy Awards, Oscar telecast producers Bill
Mechanic and Adam Shankman announced today.


“We think the team of Steve and Alec are the perfect pair of hosts for the
Oscars,” said Shankman and Mechanic. “Steve will bring the experience of having
hosted the show in the past and Alec will be a completely fresh personality for
this event.”


“I am happy to co-host the Oscars with my enemy Alec Baldwin,” said Martin.


“I don’t play the banjo but I’m thrilled to be hosting the Oscars – it’s the
opportunity of a lifetime,” said Baldwin.


Martin hosted the 73rd and 75th Academy Awards shows, earning an Emmy nomination
for the first stint. He has also served as a presenter on the show several
times, most recently at the ceremony in February when he appeared with Tina Fey.
He is currently touring with the bluegrass band Steep Canyon Rangers in support
of his latest album “The Crow: New Songs for the Five String Banjo.” In 1977
and 1978 Martin won Grammys for Best Comedy Recording. He earned a third Grammy
in 2001 in the Best Country Instrumental Performance category. In 2007 Martin
earned a Kennedy Center Honor.


Baldwin was nominated for an Academy Award in 2003 for his supporting role in
“The Cooler.” That year also marked his most recent appearance as a presenter
on the show. Baldwin currently stars as Jack Donaghy on the comedy “30 Rock,” a
role for which he has won two Emmys (in 2008 and 2009). Baldwin earned a Tony
nomination in 1992 for his performance in “A Streetcar Named Desire.”


Academy Awards for outstanding film achievements of 2009 will be presented on
Sunday, March 7, 2010, at the Kodak Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center®, and
televised live by the ABC Television Network. The Oscar presentation also will

ALEC BALDWIN TO SARAH MICHELLE GELLAR: YOU'RE A "PUSHY PRIMA DONNA."

That's what an inside source said, the usually renewed character actor called the new queen of horror. In The Girl's Guide to Hunting and Fishing (Gellar's first NON-horror film in LONG time) The former Ms. Summers co-stars with the one damn, good time Jack Ryan, in a May-December romantic movie.

In light of Baldwin's recent divorce fiascoes with Oscar winner/Ex wife, Kim Bassinger (too numerous to mention) over his daughter, has driven the boss of The Cooler insane. Ergo, he is driving the film's crew and Gellar herself crazy.

Gellar who has built a rep of being "very professional and hardworking", but Gellar didn't like being called a diva and "recently called (sarcastically) Baldwin a nice guy," only because mainstream media forces were on the set that day.

While the crew tried to be understanding about Baldwin's legal woes, it allegedly led Gellar to declare him a "bastard" and a "tyrant" whenever he wasn't on set or stuck in his trailer.

Later.
