Gay '30 Rock' star: 'Baldwin is sexy'

An openly gay 30 Rock actor has called the programme's star Alec Baldwin "incredibly sexy".

Cheyenne Jackson, who joins the NBC comedy tonight as new character Danny Blake, said that he has "a talent crush" on Baldwin.

He told E!: "Alec Baldwin is incredibly sexy. He's an alpha male. I would say I have a talent crush on him. That's what we say here in New York - a talent crush."

Jackson added: "He knows comedy! He knows timing! He knows what a little flick of your eye will do. I learned so much from him already, even in the short time I've been there."

Baldwin recently admitted that he utilises an "ass double" for nude scenes in his forthcoming romantic comedy It's Complicated with Meryl Streep.
