Why Alec Baldwin called Paul McCartney an ‘a–hole’ during yoga class
nypost.comAlec Baldwin doesn’t like a showoff.The “30 Rock” actor, 66, revealed that he took a yoga class with Paul McCartney, 81, in Los Angeles years ago, and he called the musician an “a–hole” because the musician was so good at yoga. “He would do a handstand or a headstand and he had the most lithe body you’ve ever seen, and back then he was in his late 60s, and he was so fit,” Baldwin said on the “Our Way with Paul Anka and Skip Bronson” podcast on Wednesday.

He was a very fit guy.”Baldwin revealed that other male celebrities took the yoga class with them, including “Saturday Night Live” creator Lorne Michaels.
