What’s in Alex Baldwin’s wallet? Not the money he’s made from Capital One commercials. Baldwin has donated all of the proceeds to charity. He can be contentious, belligerent, pugnacious, and hard to take, but at least his (liberal) heart is in right place. Baldwin has posted a list of his 2013 donations to Facebook. He’s very loyal to the arts, and to his community in the Hamptons. He also does an excellent imitation of Tony Bennett. And he even paid for a pair of tickets to “Orphans,” the Broadway play he was in last spring. I don’t know if that’s a write off. But the rest of it is quite magnanimous.
