Alec’s Ready for Saturday Night

30 Rock star Alec Baldwin revealed out on the red carpet at Saturday’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner that he will be hosting the May 15 season finale of Saturday Night Live.

No word on who the musical guest will be yet.

NBC hasn’t confirmed Baldwin’s statement, but I’ll bet a couple of Schweddy Balls it’s true. SNL hearts the guy, and his 14 previous outings have been quite successful.

I just wish they would ask people who have never hosted before, or people who haven’t hosted as many times (like, say, Gwyneth Paltrow...with musical guest Madonna!), you know....

I s’ppose I’ll just be thankful next Saturday is Betty White’s turn (with musical guest Jay-Z, no less – eat your heart out, Martha Stewart and Busta Rhymes).

Update: The rumor is not a rumor anymore.

NBC has confirmed that Baldwin will close out the SNL season, with musical guest Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers.
