Hasn’t the world become a better place since Alec Baldwin began to lighten up, shed some of his ego (if not his weight) and show off his considerable comedic chops in small screen favourite 30 Rock.

As if you needed another reason to smile, he’s now been snapped by director Adam Shankman (with co-star Russell Brand) on the set of 80’s musical Rock of Ages in a somewhat outlandish, yet strangely natural-looking rock get-up.

With reports that the actor had to be talked into staying on what looks like an incredibly fun productions by the film’s producers (Alec – Catherine Zeta-Jones, Paul Giamatti, Malin Akerman, Mary J. Blige and even Tom Cruise have also investing in having fun here!), having now seen this image, surely he realises that to have jumped ship would have been a real tragedy.

Keep smiling Alec. You rock.
