Actor Alec Baldwin claims he was kicked off a plane for playing an online game before the flight took off. The 30 Rock star says he was asked to leave a Los Angeles-New York American Airlines flight for playing Words with Friends on his iPad device while the plane was still at the gate. Alec quickly took to his Twitter page to complain that an attendant ‘reamed me out’ for playing the game. The 53-year-old wrote: “Flight attendant on American reamed me out 4 playing WORDS W FRIENDS while we sat at the gate, not moving. No wonder america air is bankrupt.” Alec eventually caught a later flight, but vowed it would be his last with the company and blasted cabin crew members, calling them ‘retired Catholic school gym teachers from the 1950s’. Air passengers are told to shut down electronic devices before take-off and landing. It is not known whether Baldwin had refused an instruction to stop playing the game.

Actress Tori Spelling has forgiven her husband Dean McDermott after he accidentally posted a topless photo of her on his Twitter page. The 38-year-old told CNN that though she was ‘devastated’ at first, she knows it was an accident. She said: “But it’s like, what am I going to do? I am a mum, I was nursing my baby. “[Dean] was so devastated about it that I couldn’t be mad. I mean it was genuinely an accident.” Despite it being embarrassing, the reality star saw the bright side and was glad that at least her breasts were in top form. Tori added: “If you are ever going to have someone tweet a picture of your boobs, I would rather it happen now than any other time because when you are nursing, your boobs look better than ever, bold [and] beautiful. I just had my nipples insured, so yeah, it’s good.” Dean tweeted a picture of their son Liam earlier this month, and didn’t realise that Spelling was in the background with her breasts exposed.

The house where Hollywood stars Matt Damon and Ben Affleck penned the script for Good Will Hunting is up for sale. The two actors rented the Los Angeles home in the early 1990s — during which time they wrote the script for the Oscar-winning movie. The film, which featured an all-star cast including Robin Williams, Minnie Driver, and Stellan SkarsgÃ¥rd, catapulted Damon and Affleck to fame after its 1997 release. The 2,187sq ft former farmhouse is listed for sale at $779,000 by LA real estate agent Michael Locke of Locke + Partners. “At the time, they paid $2,000 per month in rent,” reveals Locke. The four-bedroom, two-bathroom house was originally part of a 19th-century hilltop farm, but was subsequently revamped by owner Albert Braasch, who bought it in the 1920s. Braasch subdivided the land and commissioned local architect Jean L Egasse to create a “French-cum-Nordic” theme for the property. “Albert’s wife, Constance was a music teacher and artist,” adds Locke. “She added her own touches with fanciful wall sculptures and murals, some of which are still intact.”

Kim Kardashian fans got to see the reality star’s short-lived marriage to Kris Humphries begin to unravel on last night’s series premiere of Kourtney & Kim Take New York. The couple, who wed in a lavish ceremony in August, begin married life by sharing a suite in New York’s Gansevoort Hotel with Kardashian’s 32-year-old sister Kourtney, her partner Scott Disick and their baby Mason — an arrangement that quickly turns sour. Signs that there are problems in the marriage include the 26-year-old basketball star losing his temper when he walks in on his new wife and Kourtney doing yoga with a naked instructor; the couple fighting over cleanliness — Kardashian is a “neat freak”, while her new hubby keeps leaving his clothes everywhere; and Humphries showing Kardashian that he doesn’t have much respect for her career. And during a post-wedding celebration in New York club Capitale, Humphries refuses to do any press and when told it’s time for them to cut their welcome cake, he tells the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star: “You care about that. I don’t give a f***.”
