captions paid for by nbc-universal television hello, everybody. it's thirsty thursday, december 8th. we are so glad you're here with us today. >> it's starting to feel like december finally. in the 30s, people have hats and coats on in new york. >> we had a big day yesterday. stayed in the city last night. we have apartments in the same building. i'm on the 37th floor. i did not literally sleep one minute all night long because

the wind was howling like crazy. >> it's crazy windy in our building. it's chalet-like. i get nervous. >> oh, what a day, you might ask, did we have. >> we had a great day. >> first of all we'll talk about alec. >> he issued what was said to be an apology. he apologized after the all the antics yesterday. you know the story about him on a plane, how he was playing a game. he didn't turn it off. he got into an altercation and was kicked off the plane. he apologized to the passengers, but this is how he apologized to the airline, i guess. here is his quote. "the lesson i've learned is to keep my phone off when the 1950s gym teacher is on duty. that was my fault there even though this trip was different from others, in this case when other people were still manipulating their own phones, this one employee singled me out to put my phone away."

if you listen to the post from what witnesses said, a witness heard him saying, i want your blanking name right now, alec baldwin speaking to the flight attendant. >> i don't know, who do you believe? knowing our alec the way we do. >> i think they are both right. >> he also said he was going to shut down his twitter account. this is how he described it. let's play a game called mass on following. i want to crash this account and start again. here is the thing about twitter. you can hit that send button and then it's out there. that's it. it's out there and you got troubles. >> there should be a button that asks you a question first, think this through, are you sure? really? take a moment to think about this. that's life in general, you know? >> i think when you see someone who is in power knocking someone who has none, it's terrible to

listen to and watch. >> here is the thing that bothers me the most about it. ultimately, and we are all selfish people. our natural state is selfishness. a baby comes out crying. they want attention, give me, down, mine, out. you spend the rest of your life trying to deal with those kinds of natural urges, right? ultimately, what it was is just very selfish. it means there is no concern for every other passenger on that plane. they were delayed. i hope he feels it. was it worth it? someone is having a heart attack and you wait for somebody to come on and help the person, a doctor to come, everybody understands there is a really good reason for a delay like that. when it's something as silly and insignificant as that. first of all, he's sitting in first class. a lot of people in the back are scrunched. i think he'll learn it from. alec is not an all bad guy.

he's just not. >> he's very charming, can be funny and great to talk with. >> we had so much fun yesterday. i woke up thinking about the broadway show we saw yesterday. i fell asleep smiling because of what we saw. >> i bet you did. >> i woke up thinking about it. it was hugh jackman back on broadway. it was so incredible. >> where do we begin? >> it was such a great show. >> he accomplishes absolutely everything without practically even breaking a sweat. he's with these darling girls, four of them were making their broadway debuts. he just makes it look effortless and it's not. he loses three pounds a day doing this show. >> look how natural he is. >> he not only sings, he tells stories about his life. he talked about how you get a phone call in your life and it can change your life. you get thousands of calls and one changes your life.

he got a call saying he is going to carnegie hall. he called his dad to say you've got to see me at carnegie hall. his dad was a tight attorney. he never took off work. he said i'm taking tleeg days off, one day to get there, one day to see the show, one day to get back. he says it's a black tie event. i want to pick you up at your hotel, walk you to carnegie hall. hugh said you can do that. knock, knock, and there is his father wearing the black tie. he said i told you it's not black tie. he said my son is performing at carnegie hall. i am wearing black tie. you were laughing and crying and singing. >> he could have had a self-indulgent show. he deserves it. he's the cover of sexiest man alive on "people."

it was so self-deprecating and so with a wink. it was the absolute perfect, perfect tone. i always thought he's the nicest guy in this business. now i really do think he is the nicest guy on the planet, too. he is beloved by everybody he works with. he treats everyone with so much respect. >> we went backstage. there is a special reason we went backstage. not everybody got to go backstage. sunny came with us. >> i wasn't planning on going backstage, you can see that. i've been studying painting. you wear one of those painting things. none of us look very good, but who does standing next to hugh jackman? >> he was auctioning off at the end of the show he had a sweaty, smelly -- >> i doubt it smelly. >> t-shirt. >> then he starting a bidding for it. >> for equity fights aids, the actors' fund. i started bidding thinking i'm going to get the price up. we bid, we bid. it starts to take on a life of its own. >> it got huge. >> between this other woman on

the other side. >> you go, i want to see her. >> i go, i want to see her. you, you, bring it on. she stands up and she makes her big bid and i go, you win. thinking, yes, i got it up to a lot of money! >> and then -- >> and then he says, i have two t-shirts you can both make that. i'm not telling you the amount because frank is probably watching at home. >> he's going to be upset and angry. >> but look what i got for it. i want to smell it first. there is a new research, there is research out that says -- what's it say? >> you can tell a person's personality from their b.o. your body odor. >> that is a nasty way to say it. from their personal scent. >> after they've been sweating. get in. >> oh. >> he smells good. he smells good. >> oh. >> i want some. >> you give me a check for half

the amount. >> i don't want it that bad. >> take it out. it is damp. >> it's sweaty. >> it's got a little make-up on it. and there it is. hugh jackman. oh, my gosh. what should i do with it? i'm thinking about what we should do. if somebody wants to make an equal gift to equity fights aids, i would be happy to give this up for them. otherwise it's going in my studio at home framed. >> you also hit another broadway show. >> yes. i was staying in town because friends of mine are involved with a terrific new show called "bonnie and clyde." there's a lot to like about this show. first of all these stars, jeremy jordan and laura osnis play bonnie and clyde respectively. if you want to see the future of broadway, see these two young people. they are 27 and 26.

they are brilliantly talented. the critics were not that nice, unfortunately, to the show. i didn't think they deserved some of the knocks they got. my friend john mcdaniel did amazing orchestration. here is the thing about it. i want to say nice things about it because it's harder and harder to bring a new story and a new show to broadway. if we don't start supporting them, you're going to have revital after revival after revival. they are great. i know how tough it is to bring a new show to broadway. i want to support my friend. it's hard work, blood, sweat, tears and dreams. go see "bonnie and clyde." it's really, really worthy. >> we have, you guys, a special guest here. he smells like heaven and his name is isaiah mustafa. >> the old spice guy. >> thank you, ladies. good to see you.

good morning. here is your weather channel forecast. pretty quiet across much of the country, just a few exceptions. rain possible in south texas. also in florida. but it's where we're seeing the white. we could see several inches of snow. but only in a few locations. most of the spots here in white just going to pick up a dusting. it's going to be places like buffalo, new york and niagara false. could see maybe 5, 6, 8 inches of snow. and watertown, new york could see a foot of snow on the ground. so it's going to be that lake-effect snow. big reason for that, that cold air moving over the lakes picks up that relatively warmer water, that moisture from the warmer water and dumps a whole bunch of snow. mild in the south, still a few

lingering snow showers coming off the great lakes. this is more representative of what we're expecting. the snow is only on one side. that's an indication we're talking about lake-effect snow. picking up that moisture and dropping it on the far side of the lake from where the wind is coming from. down right cold on saturday. upper 20s for highs in minneapolis and chicago. so very chilly. a few showers still in florida and southern texas on sunday. another system moving into the pacific northwest. still very quiet. keep in mind, we're in december now. we should be seeing storms roll through, but we're in a quiet pattern. things are picking up for southern california by tuesday and rain possible for the southern plains. wednesday, have to watch for an icy mess in the midwest. remember, every weekday, you can watch "wake up with al" on the weather channel. on my journey ,
