Basinger or Ricky Bobby: Why'd Baldwin Drop CAA?
Alec Baldwin's abrupt decision
to leave CAA for as-yet-to-be-determined pastures may have been fueled in part by a
video spoof posted at FunnyOrDie.com, a website cocreated by another CAAer,
Will Ferrell, and placing poor
Dora the Explorer on the receiving end of his answering-machine harangue. "Baldwin asked CAA to take it off [the site], and they didn't," a source tells the
New York Post's Page Six. Others, though, contend that Baldwin parted ways with the 10-percentery because they still pimp his ex-wife,
Kim Basinger.
Baldwin's rep quips about the video spoof, "Three-year-olds everywhere are upset that Dora... and her friends are being dragged into this." Or as Swiper would say, "Oh,
man!"
