For the past twenty years, the Brothers Baldwin have been making the American public simultaneously laugh and cringe. Alec, the most famous Baldwin brother, has been embroiled in a terrifically acrimonious divorce from actress Kim Basinger for years, centered on the custody of their daughter Ireland. Baldwin himself issued a setback in that battle when he left a voicemail on his 12-year-old's cell phone, calling her "a rude, thoughtless little pig." Eldest brother Daniel was arrested for drugs four times in 2006 alone, but his most spectacular arrest was in 1998 when he was found running naked through the halls of the Plaza Hotel, high on cocaine. Daniel left a stint on VH1's Celebrity Rehab after the fourth episode, claiming a previous acting commitment. You might think littlest brother Stephen's biggest transgression is Bio-Dome, but shortly after the September 11th attacks, Stephen became a born-again Christian who evangelizes through extreme sports and disagrees with liberal brother Alec on most issues. "The greatest way to ensure a better America in the future is make [it] more Christian,” Stephen has said, between appearances on Celebrity Bull Riding Challenge and Celebrity Apprentice. Brother Billy is seemingly the most normal, but there could be drama afoot: wife Chynna Philips is the daughter of John Phillips, and half-sister to Mackenzie and Bijou, another troubled family.
