Alec Baldwin's wife comes out as a Bostonian

I know Alec is SNL royalty and they love him over there..but this situation is just crying out for an SNL skit about it. LOL

I'll say one thing..she is dedicated for putting up that fake ass Spanish accent for all these years. One of the best performances of the decade..literally.

This "white people pretending to be black" (or in this case Hispanic) we've seen in academia and now with mainstream celebrities is pretty out there. That's some pretty hardcore white guilt.

A minor point, but Amy Schumer's tweet that started this whole thing was still obnoxious.

Proof yet again that nothing good comes from Boston.

That is the question a lot of people have been asking. There have been several similar instances to this in academia with professors impersonating black people, with one even going so far as to darken her skin with tanning beds and use hair product to make her hair appear coarser. As one would imagine a lot of right wing outlets have jumped on this and compared it to "passing" to try and suggestion whites are being oppressed in contemporary America.  That seems like a huge stretch, it's hard to argue that blacks and Hispanics still aren't disadvantaged in pretty much every industry. To me it has more to do with the current "victimization" fetish on the white left. She was probably getting an emotional high out of things like claiming people thought she was the nanny and getting sympathy on social media. And I say claiming because considering how much she's lied about her background there's no reason to assume that that story isn't made up. 

Such a weird story

Because being spicy is the new trend. 

This is genuinely mindbogglingly stupid, and hilarious. I honestly don't know if I should pity or feel sorry for Baldwin or think he's a moron for believing his wife was Spanish to begin with. 

Do you mean hilarious or Hilaria-ous.......?

Now that's the question. It's very funny, let's just say.

LMAO. The grift was strong with this one.
