When you think about the handsomest men on earth, there’s one name that immediately comes to mind - George Clooney! And why not? With dreamy eyes, a fantastic smile and a lop sided grin, this guy is God’s gift! Here are 10 things about Clooney you did not know!
• Do you know that Hollywood calls Clooney ‘Gorgeous George’? Oh well, I’m sure the rest of the world does too! How can we not!
• With superhero status, George was the 6th star to act as Batman! Now wasn’t that one great looking crime-fighter! I sure wouldn’t mind riding in his Bat Mobile.
• Vogue magazine has had only two men on their cover. Guess who’s one of them? None other than Clooney himself! The other star was Richard Gere. Vogue certainly has taste!
• Ever wish you could date Clooney? You’re not the only one. He was voted No. 1 Dream Date on Match.com back in 2006.
• Ask George what his ‘perfect woman’ would be like and his answer would be: A women who has the laughter of Nicole Kidman, the personality of Julia Roberts, the ‘quintessence of beauty’ of Michelle Pfeiffer and the ambition of Jennifer Lopez. I guess that’s why he calls her the ‘perfect woman’!
• He said he would never remarry. Nicole Kidman and Michelle Pfeiffer bet $10,000 each on the fact that he would be a dad before his 40th birthday. They lost! I don’t know if that qualifies to calling him a ‘man of his words’!
• Not only is George one of Hollywood’s greatest stars, but he also has a large heart. He offer $1 million towards hurricane relief. Further, he donated his Oscar gifts to raise money for Hurricane Katrina victims. Incidentally, one gift included a Tahitian pearl necklace!
• The United Nations awarded Clooney with the ‘Messenger of Peace’ in January 2008 in recognition of his efforts with regard to the Darfur crisis.
