Hollywood Democrat man of the people.

Alec Baldwin thrown off AA flight at LAX for playing game on phone

What a smart Alec.

Hot-head Alec Baldwin was kicked off an American Airlines flight this afternoon in Los Angeles because he was playing a game on his phone apparently past the point when passengers are supposed to have turned off their devices.

On his Twitter account,Baldwin wrote: "Flight attendant on American [Airlines] reamed me out 4 playing WORDS W FRIENDS while we sat at the gate, not moving."

Fellow passengers stuck on the runway at Los Angeles International Airport quickly tweeted about the incident moments after it took place.

Michael J. Wolf, founder of the website Activate.com,tweeted at around 4:20 p.m. ET that Baldwin had been tossed from the flight.

"On an AA flight at LAX. Alec Baldwin removed from the plane. We had to go back to the gate. Terrible that everyone had to wait."

Baldwin was aboard AA Flight 4, which was delayed an hour, when the "30 Rock" star was booted for not listening to the flight attendant.

In another tweet, Grant Cardone, an author and sales expert, backed up Baldwin's account.

"Alec Baldwin is getting kicked off AA flight as I tweet this!" he wrote.

A rep for Baldwin said, "Alec was asked to leave a 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."

Words with Friends is a Scrabble-like game.

American Airlines declined to comment.

Baldwin is known for his bad temper.

In 2007, the actor left a nasty voice mail tirade for his young daughter, calling her a “rude, thoughtless little pig.”

He later apologized and wrote a book inspired by that incident.


He was in LA to participate in the left wing meeting of the Streisand's and other schmucks.
