Raging “30 Rock” star Alec Baldwin turned into a groom-zilla yesterday, going on a violent rampage in the East Village that his daughter blamed on “pre-wedding stress.”
A day before he is set to tie the knot with 28-year-old yoga instructor Hilaria Thomas, Baldwin, clutching a pink stuffed animal, blew his top at photographers outside his East 10th Street home.
“What are you squeezing my arm for,” exclaimed Splash photographer Brian Prahl, as the much-larger actor grabbed him in a fit of rage.
“You’re breaking my arm . . . All we’re doing is taking your picture.”
Baldwin weirdly responded: “I know you got raped by a priest.”
He then added, “I want you to shut the f–k up and get outta here.”
A short time later, Baldwin — who is set to be wed today at St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral on Mott Street — went out for a bike ride and shouted at several journalists gathered on the sidewalk.
“You gotta back up there, Rodney,” he sneered at a black photographer whose name is not Rodney.
Baldwin’s, daughter, Ireland, 16 — whom the actor once called a “pig” — later told The Post her dad is “actually a very mellow guy, and since he changed his diet, he’s been doing so much better . . . This is all just wedding stress.”
After he cooled down, Baldwin re-emerged and headed over to NYU”s Kimmel Center, where the reception will take place.
The top floor of the building’s Rosenthal Pavilion room faces north, and can hold up to 300 guests. It offers stunning views of Washington Square Park and goes for a bargain- basement price of just $615 for four hours for NYU alumni, such as Baldwin.
