Poor Alec!

Alec Baldwin was kicked off a plane yesterday at Los Angeles International airport after he refused to stop playing a game on his cellphone.


I got his tweet yesterday; "Flight attendant on American reamed me out for playing Words With Friends while we sat at the gate, not movin'." He ended up taking a later flight on the airline, but wrote, "Last flight with American -- where retired Catholic school gym teachers from the 1950s find jobs as flight attendants."

In a statement, the actor's rep confirmed, "Alec was asked to leave the flight for playing Words With Friends while parked at the gate. He loves WWF so much that he was willing to leave a plane for it, but he has already boarded another AA flight."

Alec joins a growing list of celebs who've been kicked off planes. Earlier this week, country singer John Rich was booted from a Southwest flight after he displayed "drunken behavior." Green Day frontman Billy Joe Armstrong was removed, also from Southwest, in September for wearing sagging pants, and director Kevin Smith made headlines last year when he was deemed "too fat to fly," also by Southwest.
