As far as Twitter meltdowns go, it has to be right up there. Hollywood actor Alec Baldwin has threatened to “******” the Daily Mail’s LA-based showbiz reporter, and then promptly deleted his Twitter account, after being outraged by a story claiming his wife tweeted during the funeral of actor James Gandolfini. The Mail’s George Stark claims that Hilaria Baldwin made a string of tweets and retweets about things including smoothie recipes and shopping tips during the funeral of the Sopranos actor. Baldwin, who was infamously caught on tape calling his young daughter a “rude, thoughtless little pig”, went into attack mode, calling Stark a “toxic little queen” who he intended to find and “f*** **”. He followed it up with a bit of trash talk saying he would “put my foot up your fucking ass … but I’m sure you’d dig it too much”. Baldwin then deleted his Twitter account. It’s a response that Tony Soprano, everybody’s favourite gangster with a violent streak, would be proud of.
