Clooney Keeps It Classy While His Ex Keeps Digging

PopSugar — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 11:00:33 -0700

George Clooney got a break from promoting Burn After Reading at the Venice Film Festival yesterday to catch up with an old friend, British TV personality Mariella Frostrup. While he's been perfectly happy walking the red carpets with Brad, his former lucky lady Sarah Larson is doing her best to show that she's not jealous. Apparently she's moved on to dating a promoter and was spotted around Las Vegas with her new man last weekend. Whether or not George has a new woman in his life or just some beautiful friends, it's clear who is getting the last laugh in that breakup.

Brad and George Tuxedo Up and Hit The Burn Premiere

Molly — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 12:30:32 -0700

It's tuxedo time for Brad and George! The boys hit the big red-carpet premiere of Burn After Reading this evening at the Venice Film Festival, dressed to the nines and ready to steal the show. Of course, all their co-stars were there as were the Coen brothers, but forgive us, this week it's all about Pitt and Clooney. It sounds like last night went that way too as the guys partied the night away celebrating being back together until the wee hours of the morning with lots of drinks to go around. It can't have been too rough of a night for Brad and George — they were looking sharp and on their game with the reporters early this morning at the photocall. Now, we'll just have to wait and hear how night number two of the guy's reunion goes down in Venice.

Brad and George Share Red Carpet and Pitt's Children in Venice

PopSugar — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 09:00:59 -0700

The Brad Pitt and George Clooney two man Venice Film Festival show rolled on, this time swapping their dark suits for light ones to meet up with co-stars Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand and the Coen brothers at a Burn After Reading photocall today. The handsome duo arrived by boat again with smiles, laughs and autographs for fans. During the session, when reporters got a little personal, the close friends kept things light by stepping in for each other and joking around. Here's more:

When a reported asked Brad about the babies, George answered: "The twins are fine."
When Brad was asked if he'd rather win an Oscar or fall in love with a beautiful woman, George answered: "Brad, don't answer that."
When George was asked about settling down and having kids they both answered: George: "I am so surprised to hear that question. That is honestly the first time I’ve been asked that question. I am getting married and having children today. Brad?" Brad: "And until then I’ll be sharing mine with him. I’ll have two more by next year."
Both also answered when asked abut missing the convention in Denver: George: "I'm happy to be here. This is one of my favorite places in the world to be. I like to watch the conventions on TV. I think the stars of the convention should be the people who are being elected. I'm pessimistic, but I'm optimistic. I think it's a very exciting time in American politics."Pitt: "I'm optimistic, too. It's a vital time. It's a defining time. I'm excited about where things are going."

They went on to joke that they only share one scene in the movie thanks to a restraining order. While we miss seeing them at the DNC, Venice is even better and thanks to tonight's red carpet premiere the Brad and George fun is not over yet.

George and Brad Are on Our Watch in Handsome Suits

Molly — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 06:00:00 -0700

George Clooney and Brad Pitt changed out of their casual boating attire and into some dapper suits for last night's charity gala to benefit their organization, Not On Our Watch, at the Venice Film Festival. The boys looked handsome as ever and happy to be back with each other to also promote their new movie Burn After Reading. Brad arrived with two of his sons, Maddox and Pax, earlier in the day, but it looks like the little guys sat this party out. Seeing photos of these two extremely manjoyable actors always puts a smile on our faces, but I'm even more excited to see the pictures with Brad behind the camera photographing his family for W magazine.

Brad, Mad, Pax, and George Descend on Venice Film Festival!

Molly — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 09:04:08 -0700

The boys arrived at the Venice Film Festival this morning, and we couldn't be happier to see them! Brad Pitt had Maddox and Pax by his side to meet up with perfectly relaxed and handsome looking George Clooney. The duo are slated to attend a Not on Our Watch Event tonight before tomorrow's big premiere of their movie Burn After Reading. Last year the whole Jolie-Pitt crew made the trek to the festival, but with the two new additions we wouldn't be surprised if Angelina, the girls, and the babies sat this one out. Instead, Maddox and Pax get some man time with Brad dad and his buddies in Venice, not too shabby.

Lots more of Brad, Clooney, and the boys, so

George Clooney Gives His Abs Some Much Needed Air

Molly — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 06:30:00 -0700

After fending off excited female fans on land, George Clooney took to the water again with some buddies over the weekend in Italy. Just another relaxing afternoon for the international man of leisure, drinking wine, catching rays, reading the newspaper. Lucky for us, Clooney also showed off those abs — mmm, very nice. Sadly, this weekend wasn't all good times for George after his Ocean's costar Bernie Mac passed away. Of the tragedy, George had this to say, "The world just got a little less funny. He will be dearly missed."

George Clooney Is Wearing a Shirt and Back on Dry Land

Molly — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 16:00:00 -0700

Fresh off the boat from his yacht vacation with the Crawford-Gerbers and company, George Clooney was back on his motorcycle for a ride around his Lake Como estate. Regrettably, he had to wear a shirt for the outing, but it's always hot to see this boy with his toys. This Summer seems to be especially laid-back for Mr. Clooney, entertaining friends at his estate, now it's time for another relaxing month sitting back and starting to get working on that Obama fundraiser speech.

George, Cindy, and Rande Still In Bikini Yacht Paradise

Molly — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 05:03:00 -0700

The party rolled on for George Clooney, Cindy Crawford, Rande Gerber, and friends, now yachting around in gorgeous Sardinia, Italy. While his production company is busy making deals, George has been living the good life with his friends between shirtless weekends drinking wine with Bono and docking for a glamorous night on the town. This time, instead of those abs, Clooney showed off his guns under his Italia jersey. Now, I just wonder if while Rande and Cindy are having their lovey time, Clooney gets a little lonely with no special lady. Aw, who am I kidding? There are a few (million) women who would be happy to take that spot.

George Clooney Takes a Break From Playing Captain

PopSugar — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 15:30:57 -0700

George Clooney spent the weekend shirtless, laughing and lounging on a yacht in France with Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, but they also got dressed up to enjoy what the mainland had to offer for dinner on Saturday night. Vacation Clooney is looking handsome with his tan, and we expect that he'll cruise through his Summer in Europe right up until he's on the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival to put that well-rested smirk back to work.

George Clooney threw his hands up in the air to greet his friends, including Cindy Crawford, Rande Gerber and Jerry Weintraub, riding up to a yacht he chartered in the South of France all weekend. Looks amazing. We saw the same group of friends on a yacht trip the same time last year — not too shabby of a tradition. Between swimming, jet ski rides, a little newspaper reading and enjoying some wine on the deck it looks like a literally quite perfect weekend for the lucky stars. The group even met up with Bono for an afternoon on shore. George has been relaxing at Lake Como all Summer long, but hey, sometimes you need a vacation from your vacation.

George Clooney's amazing villa on Lake Como isn't his only Italian passion. The suave actor has been the spokesman for Martini vermouth since 2004, and the company just released its latest ad. We saw him shooting the over-the-top spot back in May, where George plays a classic movie star, and now here it is. What you think of Clooney's new ad — love it or leave it?

George Clooney is still on his Summer vacation, living it up at his amazing Lake Como Villa. Yesterday he took his boat for a spin with a friend, and while he kept those abs covered up with a t-shirt, he inadvertently showed off his other assets. There hasn't been a second appearance of his mysterious lady friend, but apparently George has found time to chat with his ex Sarah Larson, who told Hello! Magazine that they remain friends and keep in touch. Sarah may put on a confident front, but she's probably missing those days of sunbathing on George's boat right about now.

George Clooney Gives Showtime Its Next Dark Comedy Between Weeds, Californication, and the recently announced Matthew Perry project The End of Steve, Showtime certainly seems to be racking up a warehouse full of dark comedies these days. Today there's news of a new one, and it's got a powerhouse behind it: George Clooney.

Clooney's Mini Motorcycle Brigade, Vroom Vroom

Molly — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 02:01:00 -0700

George Clooney took the guys for a little motorcycle ride around Lake Como on Friday afternoon. I'm sure the neighbors just loved that. Clooney's been playing quite the host recently with a constant stream of guests, including buddy Brad Pitt last week after he went to the Radiohead concert in nearby Milan. As for George's romantic life, there have been no more ladies spotted just yet, despite those rumors of a new girl. Hey, if he's ever lonely I'm sure he'd have no trouble wrangling up a female (or a million) to come join him at the estate. In fact, I think I might even know a few myself...

George Clooney Keeps Riding Right Along

PopSugar — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 11:00:11 -0700

George Clooney's fun times in Italy continued this weekend with a bike ride around foggy Lake Como. He left his mystery lady back in his bedroom for some male bonding with his college buddy Tate Donovan. George is pretty adorable riding around with his backwards cap like a teenager. We can't help but wonder how Sarah Larson feels about seeing her man looking so happy and carefree without her — especially with the new rumors that he's been seeing someone else for a while now.

Who's That Girl in George Clooney's Bedroom?!

Molly — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 16:31:05 -0700

Well, what have we here? Newly single George Clooney looks like he already has some Lake Como companionship. Of course, this lady could be anyone — friend? friend's wife? just a visitor? — but you have to admit that this is just the level of juicy photos that perfectly round out a Friday afternoon! This female in question (and inciting jealousy in women everywhere) was spotted in Clooney's Lake Como house yesterday afternoon. We saw him boating with a buddy earlier, and apparently he's been enjoying some golf games and general relaxation time while in Italy – no word about this visitor in particular. Hey, even if it's nothing romantic, that's not a bad place to be!
