Alec Baldwin expresses his concern over the potential cancellation of the Oscar Awards ceremony like Golden Globes this weekend. The '30 Rock' actor also reveals actors' sentiment on appearing on talk shows and in the press to talk about their movie. He says they would "hardly ever bother" but would do so because they are contractually bound.

On his blog posted on Monday, January 7, the 49-year-old actor talks about the duties an actor agrees to when signing on a project.

"Most lead actors I know would hardly ever bother with appearances on most talk shows, let along morning shows, except in order to fulfill contractual obligations to promote their projects. Junkets with all of those other entertainment media? I think they would pass on those, too. But their employers force them, literally, to get out there and sell. Otherwise, who would Jay Leno have seated next to him?"

The eldest of the Baldwin clan also comments on the Golden Globe's cancellation this weekend. He fears that the Oscars would take the same fate.

"The Globes appear to be dead. The Oscars are next. And there is a monumental difference between those two. One is a pleasant evening hosted by a fraternity of international journalists who choose to recognize the work of those they admire. The other is an evening of history," Baldwin says.

"To accept an Oscar is to take one's place among the greatest actors of all time," he continues.
