Nothing is confirmed, but Alec Baldwin recently talked to my fellow E! News correspondent Ashlan Gorse on the red carpet at an Elle event, and revealed that he is getting a new love interest later this season.
Baldwin, who was just announced as cohost of this year’s Oscars with Steve Martin, wouldn’t name names, but he did give us a hint: “I won’t say who it is, but someone very near to us who may be coming on to play my girlfriend for four episodes.”
Well, we tallied up all the attractive ladies in the vicinity of Alec on the red carpet—contenders included Renée Zellweger, Becki Newton, Emily Blunt, Diane Kruger, Brenda Strong, Zoe Saldana, Julianne Moore, Katie Holmes and Julie Andrews—and after doing a little top-secret detective work, we have reason to believe the lady in question is none other than Julianne Moore.
Although we do think Julie Andrews hooking up with Jack Donaghy would be high-larious, Ms. Moore is quite perfect for the part. She’s age-appropriate, hot, funny and lives in New York. (Alec himself ruled out Renée.)
Julianne’s rep tells us, “You would need to contact NBC for an official answer,” and NBC isn’t revealing the identity of Donaghy’s new GF, but Moore remains a definite possibility. E! Online
