In another sign that the Apocalypse is forthcoming, the majority of news in the entertainment world focused on Tiger Woods and (miraculously) Adam Lambert. Since I appear to be one of the few people in this town with the intent on remaining somewhat sane, I’m not going to cover those people today.

Pause. Moment of silence.

With that being said, I still have some trashy and pointless people to cover. I’ve decided to just spread the wealth.

Your Daily Drama Monday November 30, 2009.

Alec Baldwin put in his two-years notice on 30 Rock, and for Acting in general. Baldwin began acting in television in the 80’s and has appeared in countless films over his career. His most notable being The Hunt for Red October, which grossed over 200 million world-wide.

“I don’t have any interest in acting anymore,” Baldwin, 51, told “Men’s Journal” in an interview for its December issue.

“I consider my entire movie career a complete failure…the goal of movie-making is to star in a film where your performance drives the film, and the film is either a soaring critical or commercial success, and I never had that.”

I’m not sure to joke about any of that, or whether or not Baldwin is the one who is kidding. I think he’s a phenomenal actor. I’m not sure if I’d want him as my Dad, but hey they guy is just butter when the cameras are rolling.

“And now, the movies I’ve been in, I never give them a moment’s thought. Every movie I’ve ever been in, I just avoid,” he said.

I do the same with all my student films. If it weren’t for You Tube. I’d be home scott free.

If Baldwin’s career really is over by 2012, as he said it would be, I wish him luck. You can’t really replace an Alec Baldwin in Hollywood, you just have to find one of his seven brothers to come out of nowhere and  take his place.

In other news, David Hasselhoff’s ex-wife, Pamela Bach, was arrested for a suspected DUI.  That’s exciting.

Word is that she was listening to Ryan’s Roses while it was going down, too. Hasslehoff was pre-disposed, chasing tail at Happy Endings on Sunset, and thus was unavailable for comment.

Last story of the day. God help me.

It appears Jake and Reese are on the rocks. This changes everything…

But hold the phone, nothing is official yet. Actually, things couldn’t be any more unofficial. Gossip site X17 Online spotted an assistant of Gyllenhaal’s fetching two large suitcases from Witherspoon’s Brentwood home on Sunday, then dropping them off at his own pad.

The life of a celebrity…

So some pencil necked geek a.k.a. an “assistant” takes a couple of suitcases from Reese Witherspoon’s pad and drops them off at Jake’s crib…and now they’re broken up. In a related story—

Gore takes FLORIDA!!!!!

Let’s not jump the gun here. It is winter after all. Perhaps Jake is moving his summer clothes out from Rees’s closet and he’s yet to move in his parkas and winter fleeces. We all saw Legally Blonde, I’m sure Reese is very protective of her closet space.

I’m keeping my fingers crossed on this one, and not rushing to conclusions. It would ruin my week if the two were indeed broken up, but let’s all hope for the best.
