  • Jennifer Garner’s Hilarious Theory on Why She Wasn’t Invited to George Clooney’s Wedding

    Jennifer Garner has an interesting theory why she wasn’t one of the lucky ones to be invited to George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin‘s beautiful wedding in Venice.

    And it has to do with lice and body odor.

    The mother of three shared with Jimmy Fallon during an appearance on The Tonight Show the challenges associated with having small children attending school.

    “I’ve had two mornings in a month without kids home sick. Strep throat, something they call a ‘fever virus,’ another strep throat, and then this hand, foot and mouth situation, which you should really…you don’t want that,” Garner said, to which Fallon quipped back, “Ben Affleck is now banned from my show. He’s not allowed to bring hand, foot and mouth disease onto my show.” Garner replied, “He probably did.”

    “That’s not even the worst of it,” Garner continued. “You could come home and get The Call from school. You could get The Call. It is coming your way! The Call is, ‘Hi, Mr. Fallon. Um, this happens a lot, so don’t freak out, but if you could come pick up Winnie. Your daughter has a very treatable case of lice.’”

    After one kid got lice, Garner said, “We all got lice. It’s making me itchy just to talk about it,” said the actress, while scratching her scalp. “This was years ago. It’s not right now. I’m totally fine right now.”

    She went on to explain how the lice cure was executed for her family.

    “They have people like the Lice Lady, and they come over and they comb painstakingly through your hair, and then they put something on your hair…It looks like the put Crisco in your hair but you smell a little bit like a mixture of sulfur and rosemary,” Garner explained. “And you do it everyday for a month!”

    And it was during this lice infestation that Garner met Clooney for the first time.

    “Actually, the first time—the only time! The only time our family had this problem, it was a day I had been combed through. I was getting the kids happy while they did them and whatever. Ben had gone early and he’d showered. He came out and he said, ‘Hey, um, there’s a party. I wanna go. Let’s go.’ And I said, ‘I can’t. I need to shower.’ I mean, I’m in, like, cargo pants. I’m nasty in a thousand [ways]. He’s like, ‘Come on! I mean, we have a babysitter. I want you to come with me.’ So, I get in the car and I go with him because he acted like I was going to be high maintenance. I don’t ever want to be called high maintenance. I am not a high maintenance chick! So I’m like, ‘What’s the big deal? No one’s gonna notice,’” the star of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day recalled. “We show up and the first person I see is George Clooney, and I’d never met George Clooney. I was kind of like, ‘Ah, he’s so handsome! Like, oh, my God!’ So, I see him and I walk up to him and I’m chatting with him, just trying to act like it’s cool…and I can see that he smells me, you know? But he’s trying to be polite.”

    “So, anyway, people keep asking why we weren’t at George’s wedding and we were both ‘working’ but I think he didn’t want Licey there,” Garner joked. “He’s like, ‘No, we don’t need the Afflecks. We’re OK!’”

  • George Clooney Hours Away From Saying ‘I Do’ to Amal Alamuddin in Venice

    The biggest wedding of the year is in full swing in the romantic city of Venice, Italy.

    George Clooney and his bride-to-be, Amal Alamuddin, have arrived in Venice, along with a bevy of other stars on hand to help celebrate their much-anticipated wedding.

    On Saturday, the 54-year-old groom was spotted relaxing with friends ahead of his wedding to human rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin.

    Enjoying a late-morning coffee with Cindy Crawford and her husband, reported best man Rande Gerber, Clooney was even gracious enough to interact with paparazzi, despite his reputation for wanting to keep his private life private.

    After someone yelled “Is this really happening, George?” the actor pretended to look at a non-existent watch on his bare wrist and yelled back: “Yeah, right now.”

    Singer Bono and his wife are among the celebrities in town for the nuptials, which also include Clooney’s parents and cousin Miguel Ferrer, Matt Damon, Ellen Barkin, John Krasinski, Emily Blunt, Anna Wintour and Richard Kind.

    Although Clooney and Alamuddin, 36, have never publicly disclosed the details of their wedding, speculation has been rampant.

    Guests are reportedly forbidden to bring cellphones. But don’t worry. The world will get to see pics of the wedding soon as Vogue magazine has apparently been given exclusive rights to cover the wedding.

    The luxurious Aman hotel overlooking the Grand Canal is the likely site of the ceremony. All 44 rooms have been exclusively booked for the weekend.

    Venice city officials have announced the closure of a 50-meter (yard) length of pedestrian way along the Grand Canal near the 16th-century Cavalli Palace, used for civil marriage ceremonies and right across the street from the Aman hotel, for two hours on Monday. The reason announced was for the Clooney civil ceremony.

    It is believed the couple will have two ceremonies — one on Saturday followed by a civil ceremony Monday. They will not be legally wed until after the civil ceremony.

  • George Clooney, Amal Alamuddin: New Wedding Details

    George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin are nearing their wedding day, and George’s pal Rande Gerber (husband of Cindy Crawford) has made his contribution to the big day in the form of fifty cases of tequila. It seems Gerber sent a private plane filled with Casamigos Tequila–one of his beverages of choice from the company he and George Clooney founded together.

    E! reports that while no one has confirmed the facts, all speculation strongly hints at George Clooney and Amal Alamudding tying the knot in Italy.

    Corriere della Sera reported a while back that the wedding celebration will take place over three days. They report that George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin will be married by Walter Vetroni–a close friend of both from Calfornia.

    Rumors include a performance by Lana Del Ray and that Andrea Bocelli will serenade the happy couple once they exchange their wedding vows.

    MSN reports that Amal Alamuddin’s family–who is said to be a bit old-fashioned with regard to wedding etiquette–is footing most of the bill for her wedding to George Clooney.

    Per this mode of etiquette, Amal’s family had their say as to when their daughter would marry the movie star. They wanted the wedding to be held this fall.

    “They expect a short engagement,” a source told Us Weekly.

    It seems quite likely–in light of the delivery of a plane full of booze–that Rande Gerber and Cindy Crawford will no doubt be among those guests that fly to Italy (at least that’s where the wedding is assumed to be taking place) for the nuptials.

    Who else do you expect to learn will have attended George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin’s wedding? And do you expect to hear that the nuptials will be held or have taken place in the very near future?
