  • George Clooney: Married to Ellen DeGeneres for Halloween

    George Clooney likely had no idea that on Halloween he would be married to Ellen DeGeneres. The holiday has long been a favorite of DeGeneres’ and she goes all out each year with pranks and creepy things on the set of The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Her biggest pleasure, however, is her annual Halloween costume, which receives much regalia as it is unveiled on air each year.

    “Amal, the luckiest woman in the world, Mrs. George Clooney,” Ellen said on Friday’s show. Her costume was replete with a long brunette wig, a People magazine cover, and a puppet of George Clooney.

    “I like Halloween because it’s the one time of year you can dress up however you want, and pretend you’re someone you’d never be in real life. For me, that’s married to a man,” Ellen DeGeneres said to her roaring audience.

    Ellen DeGeneres was especially clever with this year’s Halloween costume. Her creativity actually required that she play the roles of both Amal Aladmuddin Clooney and George Clooney, too.

    “Her left arm was actually the actor’s right, with the two of them firmly holding hands. Things went pretty smoothly, though George got a little handsy from time to time. He is a newlywed, though,” TheWrap writes.

    In her pre-George Clooney years, Ellen DeGeneres has portrayed Nicki Minaj with ample cleavage, Sofia Vergara with her split dress, Jennifer Lopez, and even Dr. Phil. This year’s People cover of George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin’s wedding wasn’t completely original. In 2009 Ellen dressed up as her own cover of Oprah Winfrey’s O magazine.

    Sadly George Clooney wasn’t on hand to watch Ellen portray him on Halloween, but he will no doubt see his stuffed puppet version, along with Ellen DeGeneres dressed as Amal. Photos are likely circulating all over the internet and on social media, too.

  • Cindy Crawford and George Clooney Dine Pre-Nuptials

    Cindy Crawford and George Clooney dined together the morning of his wedding. They were joined by Cindy’s husband and George’s good friend, Rande Gerber, as they ate at the outdoor restaurant at the Cipriani Hotel in Venice on Saturday morning. Clooney married Amal Alamuddin Saturday evening.

    The Daily Mail reports that Rande Gerber was George Clooney’s best man. Some tabloids speculated throughout the summer that Brad Pitt might fill that role. Gerber was seen packing his private jet with tequila from the company he and Clooney co-own, a couple of weeks prior to the big day.

    Cindy Crawford, Rande Gerber, and George Clooney were all reportedly in cheerful spirits at the outdoor restaurant as they ate their breakfast and chatted–no doubt about the event that would take place later in the day.

    It’s possible, too, that they were chatting about Friday night’s pre-wedding events. Following a large dinner, the men and women separated–taking off in their respective boats for an exciting night in Venice.

    Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber looked crisp and cool in white at breakfast, while George Clooney wore a lightweight denim shirt. The groom likely wanted to dress casually, as he knew he would spend an entire evening–and well into the night, too–in a tuxedo.

    Just Jared reports that George Clooney ate a ‘healthy breakfast’ with Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber on the morning of his wedding. Do you think his friends joined him for moral support–or to make sure he ate properly on his wedding day? Pre-wedding jitters likely have some grooms dining on a breakfast of coffee. Period.

  • Sandra Bullock, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt: MIA from George Clooney Wedding?

    Was Sandra Bullock conspicuously missing from George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin’s wedding in Italy this weekend, along with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie? If so, this no doubt comes as a surprise to those who have followed both Clooney’s personal life and career throughout the years. All summer long a variety of tabloid publications insisted that Brad Pitt would serve as George Clooney’s best man, but that reportedly wasn’t the case either.

    The Chicago Tribune mentions Sandra Bullock, Angelina Jolie, and Brad Pitt as having been on the purported guest list. They interviewed a Miami, Florida resident who was visiting Venice, who was hanging out near the site of George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin’s wedding in hopes of getting a peak at some of the rumored guests on the list.

    “They talked about Sandra Bullock, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie. It would be cool to see any of them, all of them,” the visitor said.

    Sandra Bullock and George Clooney recently starred in the hit film Gravity together. Hollywood rumors pegged them as a great match after her marriage to Jesse James failed, but they insisted they were very close friends and colleagues and not interested in dating one another. Brad Pitt and George Clooney have long been close buddies.

    Might it be possible that Sandra Bullock, Brad Pitt, and Angelina Jolie were, in fact, at George Clooney’s wedding? It simply might be that photos from the nuptials have yet to all be shared with the media.

    Meanwhile, Sandra Bullock has dyed her hair back to brunette. Just a few days ago she went blonde–perhaps for a film role?

    Bullock will reportedly be filming a movie in Puerto Rico with George Clooney in the near future.

    Perhaps Sandra Bullock simply wasn’t recognized at George Clooney’s wedding because people were expecting her to sport the blonde locks she debuted late last week. (Do you think she dispelled the notion that blondes have more fun?) Is it possible she really was there–along Brad and Angie, too?

  • George Clooney Didn’t Get Married Yesterday

    George Clooney did not get married yesterday in London.

    Chelsea Old Town Hall was host to a crowd of spectators on Friday hoping to catch a glimpse of 53-year-old Clooney and his soon-to-be wife, Amal Alamuddin.

    However, despite tabloid reports, George Clooney and his fiance didn’t show.

    A note that read, “We are NOT conducting the wedding of Mr. Clooney at this office today,” was attached to the outside of the Town Hall.

    The note continued, “We have assisted in the legal preliminaries for a proposed wedding for George Clooney and his fiance. A certificate of no impediment was applied for and has been issued as no objection was raised.”

    It went on to say that, “a film crew and press photographers would only cause plausible disruption to other couples getting married on this day.”

    It did cause some disruption, however, as nine other couples were married in the building. They had to make their way out the back door to avoid the unwanted attention.

    This probably won’t be the last time the crowd gathers at the news of George Clooney’s marriage. They seem pretty devoted.

    “Well, if George Clooney’s come to London to tie the knot, no better place to do it than in Chelsea, so I’m very happy. We’re here to congratulate him,” Francesca Wellman, one of the hopeful crowd, said.

    “George will never let us down. He chose Chelsea.”

    His absence didn’t deter the hopeful crowd. They say that their time wasn’t wasted, at least.

    Suzanne, a local resident, said, “We haven’t really wasted our time … it’s a lovely vibe around here.”

    While the exact date of his marriage isn’t known, Clooney has said the couple will to host a large official wedding ceremony in Venice in late September, so London may be out of luck. We shall see!

    What do you think? Would you wait outside to catch a glimpse of George Clooney?

  • George Clooney Was Beat to the Altar by Friend Brad Pitt, But He Couldn’t Be Happier

    Despite predictions from Angelina Jolie that George Clooney and his fiancé, Amal Alamuddin, would beat them to the aisle, the stunning actress and her new husband, Brad Pitt, were actually the first to say “I do.”

    And Clooney couldn’t be happier for his friend and reported best man and his new wife.

    The Oscar-winning actor told E! News of the ridiculously good-looking couple’s weekend wedding, “How great is that?! I’m really happy for Brad and Angie and their whole family.”

    In a May 2014 interview with Entertainment Weekly, Jolie was asked which couple would marry first, to which the mother of six responded, “Probably George!”

    With few details coming from the wedding that transpired in France on Aug. 23, it’s unknown if Clooney and Alamuddin attended the intimate nuptials.

    As for Clooney and his bride-to-be, they continue to prepare for their wedding, which some reports say will likely take place at Clooney’s Italian villa at Lake Como, Italy within the month. It’s been several months since the couple first obtained their marriage license in London. However, since they plan to marry in Italy as noted on their marriage license, there are a few additional requirements from that country they need to take care of, like getting documents legalized and translated.

    A source told E! News earlier this month it should only take a matter of days to complete the clerical requirements.

    Soon it will be Clooney‘s turn to say “I do” at his beloved Lake Como holiday home.

    “George has always loved Como, he finds it very peaceful and relaxing and now Amal has fallen in love with the area as well,” a source told E! News about Clooney’s reported choice to marry at his Italian getaway, Villa Oleandra, in Laglio. “They want to start their married life there with the beautiful lake as a backdrop. George’s home on the lake is like a very well oiled machine. He has the local mayor fully on his side and the locals too and he can ensure that press and paparazzi are kept away.”

  • George Clooney’s Ex Talks Upcoming Weddings

    George Clooney’s ex-girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis isn’t the jealous type and she recently said that she is happy for Clooney and his upcoming wedding.

    Canalis is also planning a wedding and both she and Clooney will marry their new partners in Italy this September.

    Canalis told the Italian magazine Chi, that she is “happy” for Clooney, “But I am thinking only of my happiness.”

    Canalis is engaged to orthopedic surgeon Brian Perri and the couple’s wedding date is set for September 14.

    Canalis was excited to talk about her engagement and wedding and said,

    “I chose the date some time ago and September is the most beautiful time — for those who do not know Sardinia — to appreciate it,” she told the magazine. “Otherwise I would have had to wait a year.”

    “I met a 46-year-old man who has never married and does not have children, a rarity,” the Italian beauty said of Perri, adding that the ring he gave her, “is the most beautiful ring I have ever seen. Brian designed it, he put his heart and soul into it.”

    Clooney and Canalis split up in 2011 after dating for a little over two years.

    Clooney is now engaged to Amal Alamuddin and the two plan to get married at Clooney’s Lake Como home in Laglio, Italy next month.

    The couple has been fairly quiet about their wedding plans, but both seem excited for the ceremony. The ceremony will only include their close family members and friends and while it will likely be lavish, it will also be a very private wedding.

  • Julianna Margulies ‘Thrilled’ For George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin’s Upcoming Wedding

    Julianna Margulies is super happy for her former ER co-star George Clooney and his fiancé, Amal Alamuddin, on their upcoming nuptials.

    The 48-year-old Good Wife star shared her excitement for the couple Sunday at a Variety and Women in Film’s Emmys party.

    “I’m thrilled!” Margulies told E! News at Gracias Madre in West Hollywood where the party took place. “She’s a great girl.”

    Like all of Clooney’s friends, Margulies refused to elaborate on any details she might be privy to on the upcoming Italian wedding.

    The 53-year-old actor and Alamuddin‘s most likely scenario for their wedding is an intimate affair at Clooney’s Lake Como getaway home, Villa Oleandra, in Laglio.

    “George has always loved Como, he finds it very peaceful and relaxing and now Amal has fallen in love with the area as well,” a source told E! News last week. “They want to start their married life there with the beautiful lake as a backdrop.”

    If E!‘s source is to be believed, it’s unlikely Margulies, who will attend tonight’s Emmys with her ninth nomination, will be an invitee at the wedding.

    “This is not going to be a huge Hollywood wedding with Julia Roberts and Sandra Bullock flying in to Italy for a week,” said the source. “George and Amal don’t want a media circus with paparazzi helicopters flying overhead and motorbikes chasing after them as they all arrive at the airport in Milan from Los Angeles. They want the wedding to be intimate with quiet but happy and fun dinners and lunches after they’ve said short but meaningful, hand-written vows in front of their loved ones.”

  • George Clooney, Amal Alamuddin Full Steam Ahead in Preparing for Lake Como Wedding

    George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin are full steam ahead in preparing for their much-anticipated wedding.

    Reports claim the 53-year-old actor and his fiancé will be married next month at his Lake Como villa in an intimate ceremony.

    “George has always loved Como, he finds it very peaceful and relaxing and now Amal has fallen in love with the area as well,” a source told E! News of Clooney’s Italian getaway, Villa Oleandra, in Laglio. “They want to start their married life there with the beautiful lake as a backdrop. George’s home on the lake is like a very well oiled machine. He has the local mayor fully on his side and the locals too and he can ensure that press and paparazzi are kept away.”

    “Doing the wedding in another area of Italy would involve too many people that he doesn’t know or trust and George wants to make sure that Amal and both their families enjoy the big day,” the source added. “They want it to be about them celebrating their love and respect for each other with their loved ones watching. And they can do that in Como while keeping everything fully under their control.”

    “This is not going to be a huge Hollywood wedding with Julia Roberts and Sandra Bullock flying in to Italy for a week,” said the source. “George and Amal don’t want a media circus with paparazzi helicopters flying overhead and motorbikes chasing after them as they all arrive at the airport in Milan from Los Angeles. They want the wedding to be intimate with quiet but happy and fun dinners and lunches after they’ve said short but meaningful, hand-written vows in front of their loved ones. They want their guests to enjoy it as much as they do and they know that if the guest list reads like the Oscars invite list with lots of big Hollywood names there it will be intimidating for their families. They can do a party for movie industry friends in Los Angeles at a later date.”

    Sounds about right, considering Clooney‘s desire to keep his private life private.

    Clooney allegedly told The Studio Exec the wedding will be a cheap affair out of respect for those less fortunate.

    “We are very concerned about the message we as celebrities and ambassadors to the world send out, especially in a time of financial crisis and austerity,” said the Gravity star, the magazine reports. “So the plan is a simple civic ceremony, followed by a lunch at Denny’s, the nearest one to save on cab fare and then back to a friend’s place for drinks and everyone brings a bottle…”

  • George Clooney: Lake Como Wedding Plans

    Sources say George Clooney will marry Amal Alamuddin at his Lake Como home–Villa Oleandra–in Laglio, Italy next month. Those same sources claim that wedding preparations are in full swing. Do note that George Clooney himself hasn’t confirmed any of the following plans.

    “George has always loved Como, he finds it very peaceful and relaxing and now Amal has fallen in love with the area as well,” a source says. “They want to start their married life there with the beautiful lake as a backdrop. George’s home on the lake is like a very well oiled machine. He has the local mayor fully on his side and the locals too and he can ensure that press and paparazzi are kept away.”

    “Doing the wedding in another area of Italy would involve too many people that he doesn’t know or trust and George wants to make sure that Amal and both their families enjoy the big day,” the source adds. “They want it to be about them celebrating their love and respect for each other with their loved ones watching. And they can do that in Como while keeping everything fully under their control.”

    Yet another source claims George Clooney’s wedding to Amal Alamuddin will be very ‘small and intimate.’ How can that possibly be, unless ‘small and intimate’ to George Clooney means 200 or so of his closest friends? He doesn’t seem like the type to leave out those closest to him, and there seem to be quite a few friends who are just that.

    “This is not going to be a huge Hollywood wedding with Julia Roberts and Sandra Bullock flying in to Italy for a week,” the source went on to explain. “George and Amal don’t want a media circus with paparazzi helicopters flying overhead and motorbikes chasing after them as they all arrive at the airport in Milan from Los Angeles. They want the wedding to be intimate with quiet but happy and fun dinners and lunches after they’ve said short but meaningful, hand-written vows in front of their loved ones. They want their guests to enjoy it as much as they do and they know that if the guest list reads like the Oscars invite list with lots of big Hollywood names there it will be intimidating for their families. They can do a party for movie industry friends in Los Angeles at a later date.”

    Does this sound like George Clooney to you? He is a man’s man and loves to have his good buddies close at hand. Do you think he would get married without inviting good pal Sandra Bullock?

    It will certainly be interesting to learn how close to the real deal these sources are–and if the information they are reporting turns out to be true.

    Meanwhile Amal Alamuddin is busy having the finishing touches put on her wedding dress. She will no doubt be a beautiful bride–and a lucky one, too. After all, she is marrying George Clooney.

    What’s your best take on how many people will attend George Clooney’s wedding? Will it be small and private or an all out bash?

  • George Clooney Stars, Jodie Foster Directs ‘Money Monster’

    Clooney is set to star in a film called Money Monster that will be directed by Jodie Foster. The film will follow a TV show host named Lee Gates (played by Clooney) who gets taken hostage by a gunman while on the air and is forced to reveal high-stakes secrets to his audience (that increases quickly as the plot ensues) in order to survive.

    Jodie Foster most recently directed an episode of the Netflix political thriller House of Cards. This isn’t the first film she has directed either. In fact she has three movies under her belt, including 2011’s The Beaver starring Mel Gibson and Jennifer Lawrence. She scored an Emmy nod in 2013 for directing an episode of Orange Is the New Black. This will be her first time directing George Clooney, however, and the combination of this actor and that director is intriguing.

    George Clooney is, of course, preparing for his upcoming marriage to Amal Alamuddin. Now that tabloid rumors about her family being against the marriage have decreased significantly, it is hopeful that Hollywood’s long-running bachelor is living in reasonable peace.

    Of course when one is an actor with the appeal of George Clooney, that means finding alluring roles. And this one in Money Monster sounds like it’s right up his alley. It sounds like others feel he’s perfect for the role, too.

    “I couldn’t be more thrilled to start our Money Monster adventure alongside such a talented and passionate team,” Jodie Foster said during a recent interview. “[Chairman] Tom Rothman and TriStar really get the movie and are the best cheerleaders our filmmaking team could hope for.”

    TriStar Productions has gained the rights to Money Monster, and is set to start filming in 2015. George Clooney will be a married man by then.

    “It is impossible to resist saying that we at TriStar hit the talent jackpot today. We are deeply grateful to all the exceptional people involved. There is no one in the business whose talent, dedication and intelligence, I respect more than Jodie Foster,” TriStar Productions Chairman Tom Rothman said. “And, as the bonus coupon on this blue chip investment, we get to enjoy George Clooney in a tour de force acting part. I have no doubt that his collaboration with Jodie will produce an iconic and cool film.”

  • Jennifer Aniston Hires Coach to Prep for George Clooney Wedding

    Jennifer Aniston has reportedly hired a confidence coach to prepare her for attending George Clooney’s wedding where she knows she will come face to face with her ex-husband Brad Pitt and his fiancee Angelina Jolie. Sources believe this will be the first time the Friends star will have been in the same room with Brad Pitt since their 2005 break up. Even though Brangelina–as Pitt and Jolie are often referred–and Aniston all attended the 2009 Academy Awards, there apparently was no one on one contact between the parties.

    George Clooney is set to tie the knot in September–much to the chagrin of single women from around the globe. He is marrying Amal Alamuddin at an undisclosed location, although some reports now say that undisclosed spot may be located in Venice. Clooney is very close friends with both Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt.

    “Jen is no stranger to therapy, so she decided to seek some help. At the wedding she’ll have her fiancé, Justin [Theroux], there for support, but the thought of seeing Brad and Angelina is quite overwhelming,” a source says. “The therapist has been helping to build her confidence and eliminate the fear she seems to have built up about coming face-to-face with them. She has also been having hypnotherapy.”

    Goodness that’s a lot to go through to simply be in the same room or chance a polite “Hello, how are you?” with an ex. However Jennifer Aniston has long been a huge proponent of counseling so if it makes her feel more confident, more power to her.

    “The Oscars were one thing, but George’s wedding will involve being in a smaller, far more intimate group where they won’t be able to avoid one another. Jen wants to be as breezy as possible. She has been doing role plays with her confidence coach and will be as prepared as she can be,” the source explains.

    Jennifer Aniston–at least for appearances sake–shouldn’t feel a lack of confidence around Brangelina. She is beautiful, smart, and funny–but even more than that she seems real, and that’s something Angelina Jolie simply doesn’t exude. Jolie appears like a queen on a throne–untouchable and regal, while Jennifer Aniston seems like the girl next door.

    Hopefully Jen’s therapy sessions provide her with that extra boost she feels she needs to strut her stuff at George Clooney’s wedding and knock the socks off both Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

  • George Clooney’s Wedding Plans Revealed

    When George Clooney confirmed that he would indeed be getting married soon, men around the world breathed sighs of relief while their girlfriends and wives sobbed into their pillows.

    George Clooney has been Hollywood’s hottest bachelor for decades, and although he has had many relationships over the years, he just couldn’t find the one he wanted to settle down with. That is until he met human rights attorney Amal Alamuddin.

    Alamuddin was living a pretty quiet life and had managed to stay out of the media for the most part while dating Clooney, but since the announcement of their engagement, she has been hounded by paparazzi. As the couple’s wedding day approaches, the constant attention will likely get worse.

    The couple has been pretty quiet about their wedding plans but a source close to them revealed a few details about their upcoming wedding that may be taking place in just a few short months.

    “September 12 is the date they are aiming for,” the source said. “Everyone thinks they will marry in Lake Como, where George owns a beautiful home, but Amal feels that is too public. They are looking to host a small wedding in an Italian village, where they can control the photographers. But they haven’t decided yet.”

    “They will then have big parties for her relatives in Lebanon and London,” the source continued.

    Regardless of when or where the couple decides to get married, the ceremony is likely to be a star-studded event. Unfortunately for Clooney, in the midst of his wedding planning he also had to deal with his home being burglarized.

    On Thursday, George Clooney’s estate on Lake Como in Italy was burglarized by a 29-year-old Italian man who only stole a bottle of wine from the garden before he was spotted by Clooney’s security guards. Luckily, the burglar didn’t even make it inside the home.

    Clooney and his fiancé were in London during the burglary, where they toured the Downton Abbey castle.
