Baldwin Moans At Media

Alec Baldwin has hit out at the media - accusing the press of only reporting negative things about him. The actor, 50, came under fire last year , after an angry voicemail message he had left for his then 11-year-old daughter Ireland on his ex Kim Basinger's answering machine was leaked online. On the message, Baldwin can be heard verbally chastising Ireland and calling her mother "a thoughtless pain in the ass". However, Baldwin insists he can be nice. He tells TheCelebrityTruth.com, "Well, if you have four bad days in four straight years, then all four of them are depicted in the media, then yeah. The other 360 days of the year, when you're just handing out lollipops and riding unicorns through cotton-candy forests and everything's so magical, they don't report that. "I've (acted) now for a long time and I've enjoyed it. But I just feel like there's other things I want to do. I'm tired. The business has changed."

Jen & John: Hot Between the Sheets!

After being spotted together on vacations, at intimate dinners, even a bbq at Courteney Cox's Malibu beach house, it's clear Jennifer Aniston's relationship with her much younger beau John Mayer is giving her a glowing new sense of self.

The actress, who is known for runnng errands in faded jeans and t-shirts, showed up at J.J. Custom Upholstery in L.A. on June 5 wearing a low cut maxi dress that showed off her toned arms and ample cleavage. The reason for her sudden sexed-up self? Lots of action between the sheets!

"John is good in bed," a pal of the 30-year old singer-songwriter tells OK!. "Not just good, but sensational. Every girl I know who has slept with John says it was the best sex of their life. I'm not sure what exactly he does in bed, but after girls sleep with him, they're ruined. They get totally hung up on him and want more! Whatever John's secret is, he should market it. He could retire from the music industry."

Dating a man nearly ten years younger seems to have done wonders for the Marley & Me star, who was previously married to Brad Pitt, 44. "Great sex with a younger man can improve anyone's mood and attitude," says New York-based relationship expert Cooper Lawrence, who has not treated Jen.

"Jen's in a new relationship, and when you're having great sex, you dress to reflect how you feel. Instead of dark glasses and dull dresses, Jen's wearing short skirts and sexy tops. It's like sending a message to the world."
