Alec Baldwin reportedly stole the show at Elle Magazine’s 16th Annual Women in Hollywood tribute Monday night, delivering terrific lines that left the audience rolling in the aisles while serving as the event’s first male host. Video of his presentation after the jump.
People.com reports:

During Baldwin’s Dean Martin-esue stint at the dais, he had the largely female audience women – including Katie Holmes, Renée Zellweger, Emily Blunt, Julianne Moore, Robin Wright and Julie Andrews – shrieking with laughter as he took aim at a variety of topics.

“I want to assure you that I didn’t steal this role from a more qualified woman,” Baldwin joked with the crowd at the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles Monday night. “There was an audition process. The audition required me to move a couch, fall asleep in front of the TV, and open a particularly stubborn jar of pickles.”

A portion of his presentation has been posted on YouTube:
