X17 EXCLUSIVE - Alec Baldwin Questions X17 Photographer About His Work As A Paparazzo

Posted on Fri Jun 29th, 2012 1:20pm PDT       By X17 Staff


One week after his well-publicized run-in with a paparazzi photographer, Alec Baldwin tries to make peace with an X17 photographer ... asking him questions about the job.

Alec wants to know why someone would take pictures of celebrities when they could do something "honorable," like be a cop.

Baldwin has a history of fighting with photographers -- he was accused of punching a New York Daily News photographer last week in front of the Manhattan Civil Courthouse after he and fiancee Hilaria Thomas applied for a marriage license.

Today seemed like an attempt for the more cerebral side of Alec to understand the job of a celebrity photographer. Not sure if he agreed with the snapper's answers, but he did tell him, "At least you're being honest."

The singer/actress has been showing off her post-pregnancy bod while on vacation, and we're amazed at how quickly she dropped the baby weight! Not only that, but Mrs. Mike Comrie is doing it the healthy way!

"I am working out and I'm trying and I'm trying not to [obsess]. Everyone wants their body back, but all in time. It took nine months to get there and so hopefully, it won't take that long to get off, but I'm doing it slowly," she revealed in a recent interview with Access Hollywood.

Cops Accused Of Leaking Battered Rihanna Photo Will Not Face Criminal Charges

rihanna050112_03_X17crop230.jpgThe two LAPD officers accused of leaking the photo of a battered Rihanna have been cleared of criminal charges.

The LA District Attorney has dismissed the case due to lack of evidence that the cops were paid by TMZ ... the gossip site that published the photo.

The photo was posted in 2009 shortly after Chris Brown punched his then-girlfriend in the front seat of their rented Lamborghini.

Both female cops, who have been identified as 28-year-old Blanca Lopez and 39-year-old Rebecca Reyes, were paid a reported $62,000, however searches of their bank accounts showed no evidence of payment.
