Alec Baldwin: Acting Has Lost It's Importance

Alec Baldwin will appear on "The View" tomorrow (taped yesterday) to discuss the "rude, thoughtless little pig" voicemail he left his daughter, and his his need to take a break from acting.

Of his berating voicemail, he told the ladies at "The View," "I took it out on the wrong person because I'm unable, under the current dynamic, to address the other person." "You didn't mean to say it to your child...you meant it for your ex-wife?" Barbara Walters asked. Baldwin replied, "Well, I think that goes without being said." He declined to answer when asked if he'd spoken to his daughter since he left the insulting message.

He went on to say, "If I never acted again I couldn't care less," and asked NBC to let him out of his 30 Rock contract to focus on the issue of "parental alienation." "I've had enough of this quite frankly to last me a lifetime, especially in the modern tabloid world and ... there's a bigger thing I want to do, there's a more important thing I want to do," Baldwin said. "Acting Has Lost It's Importance."

Baldwin is one of our favorite actors and works non stop, but it seems he's pretty serious about taking a break. Within the last few days, he just fired his long time agents Matt DelPiano and Michael Rosenfeld at Creative Artists Agency.

There's always something with these Baldwin brothers! Needless to say, we're looking forward to tomorrow's View.
