Meanwhile, the manufacturers of "Word With Friends" has released a photo to TMZ in support of their celebrity fan. The photo spells out the phrase “Let Alec Play.”



The score on the game reads: A Baldwin 1, American Air 0.

Words With Friends was released in 2009 by Newtoy, a scrabble-like game, which can be played on the iPhone, iPad, Android and even on Facebook. It consists of multiple players taking turns to build words on a crossword-style board. Up to 20 games can be played simultaneously.

Another celebrity who boosted the popularity of "Words with Friends" is singer John Mayer who tweeted in 2009 that it is the "new Twitter."

In November this year, the game apparently had 4.4 million daily active users.
