When you think of Alec Baldwin, you think of him as an actor and assume that is all he ever wanted to do. Turns out that was not always the case. In fact, he told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show yesterday that he was studying pre-law at George Washington Univerity, but then something happened.
What happened? His friend dared him to audition for NYU’s acting program and he got in. Since he was still young, he felt he had to do it because he would never get another chance to do it. Therefore he did it.
When he was taking classes there, he asked the head of the program why he let him in. Was it because he is such a natural talent? Nope. The professor told him, “You were the only straight guy that applied.”
If you think about it, had the stars not aligned just so, we would not have the Baldwin acting dynasty and Justin Bieber would be engaged to someone else. Crazy how a dare can change your life and so many others.
Deep thoughts for today.
