Watch Ireland Baldwin Roast Dad Alec for Voicemail Calling Her ‘Thoughtless, Little Pig’
During the Comedy Central Roast of Alec Baldwin taping in Los Angeles last weekend, many jokes were made about the infamous voicemail that the actor left his then-11-year-old daughter Ireland in 2007, calling her a “rude, thoughtless little pig.” Every time it happened, Alec Baldwin would make the same faux-shocked expression in the direction of Ireland, now 23, who was dying laughing in the audience.
Then, about midway through the special, which will air on Comedy Central this Sunday night at 10 p.m., Ireland Baldwin surprised the crowd by taking the podium to get her revenge.
“Hi Dad, I’m Ireland,” she began. “It’s good to be here. I almost didn’t know about it because I haven’t checked my voicemails from my dad for the last, like, 12 years?” She went on to joke that she had “a lot in common” with the other roasters on the stage—including Caitlyn Jenner, Robert De Niro and others—because “like them, I don’t really know you that well either.”
