Alec Baldwin accused of 'yelling' at waitress trying to serve meals at glitzy gala

Alec Baldwin has been accused of losing his temper and "yelling" at a waitress as he attended a star-studded gala in New York.

The 65-year-old actor allegedly "scolded" a young waitress at the 2023 PEN America Spring Literary Gala on Thursday night as she served guests their dinner.

The staff member is said to have been left "shocked" following the alleged incident.

Alec attended the glitzy event with his wife Hilaria Baldwin and while they posed up a storm together on the red carpet, it's said she wasn't there to witness him "yelling".

A source claims the waitress, said to be in her late 20s or early 30s, was stuck behind Alec as he stood to chat with a fellow attendee.

The source said: "Then, when she could pass, she started putting plates on the table. I guess he didn't like that she did that with him standing there."

After the incident, the server is said to have been "visibly upset", with a source telling Page Six that she was overhead telling someone: "I don't know why he yelled at me."

The source suggested: "I'm guessing he felt it was rude of her to start putting plates down while he was standing there."

However, they said the alleged incident was "quick" and went relatively unnoticed by the other guests.

The Mirror has approached Alec's representatives for comment.

Despite the accusations, Alec was all smiles as he posed on the red carpet with Hilaria and he was even spotted sweetly kissing the yoga instructor.

Alec looked smart wearing a black suit and bow-tie, which he paired with a crisp white shirt.

Hilaria was the epitome of glamour as she wore a floor-length black gown which was decorated with a tiered feather edge.

She opted for a minimal makeup look and styled her brunette hair in a classy up-do.

The gala was the couple's first red carpet appearance since Alec's Rust shooting charges were dropped.

Alec's name was cleared back in April following the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins in October 2021.

He had been charged with involuntary manslaughter after a prop gun he was holding on set of the film fired a real bullet, killing Halyna and injuring Rust's director Joel Souza.
