George Clooney's Twins Have a Star Crush: Taylor Swift on Their Wish List!
George Clooney Spills on His Twin Tots' Celebrity Crushes and Dares to Wear a Hairdo That's Left Fans Gasping
The Tony Awards red carpet was always going to be a hot ticket, but when George Clooney strutted out in his new dark brown locks and orange tan, jaws dropped from coast to coast. But it wasn't just the 63-year-old's questionable hairstyle that stole the show - his candid comments about his eight-year-old twins and wife Amal had fans buzzing.
As he chatted with E! News on the red carpet, Clooney revealed that his little munchkins Ella and Alexander have a fascination with celebrities...just not the ones he's friends with. "They want to see Taylor Swift," he exclaimed, clearly amused by their pop icon crush. But it seems the tiny tots aren't impressed by their old man's A-list pals - Robert De Niro, Brad Pitt, or Julia Roberts are all but invisible to them.
"They have no idea of references," Clooney chuckled, reminiscing about a recent dinner party where his twins barely registered De Niro's presence. "They're like, 'Who's that?' They don't care." It seems George and Amal's kids are more interested in the latest music sensations than their dad's famous friends.
But Taylor Swift isn't the only star on their radar - Ella and Alexander are also huge fans of Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, particularly after watching them perform in Wicked. "They're looking forward to the second part," Clooney shared, clearly proud of his kids' love for the performing arts.
As for George's own inner circle, it's clear the twins are a bit...unimpressed. After all, when you grow up with Brad Pitt and Robert De Niro as your regular dinner guests, their dad's celebrity status starts to lose its shine. "The funniest part is that they have no idea of references," Clooney laughed, shaking his head.
But enough about the twins - let's get back to George himself. The actor was a hit at the Tonys, charming attendees with his confident stage presence and dashing dark locks (which, we're told, are only temporary for his role in Good Night And Good Luck). But while the play itself received rave reviews, Clooney's performance wasn't quite enough to snag him a Tony award - Cole Escola took home the prize for his performance in Oh, Mary!
As George and Amal posed on the red carpet, they couldn't help but steal a romantic kiss or two. It's clear their love is still going strong after 11 years of marriage and two adorable little munchkins. "I have this incredible partner who I couldn't be more proud of," Clooney gushed about his wife, a renowned human rights lawyer. "She's the bravest human being I've ever met in my life."
As for George's latest hairdo, let's just say it's been met with...mixed reviews. While some fans have defended his decision to dye his locks dark brown (in honor of his role as Edward R. Murrow), others have been left scratching their heads. "What in the Sam Hell is that awful dye job on George Clooney? He looks pathetic," one fan tweeted.
George himself even admitted during a recent interview on CBS Mornings that he knows his hair isn't exactly setting hearts racing. "I know it's not good!" he laughed, shaking his head at Gayle King's gentle teasing about his new look.
But the actor is clearly more concerned with his family and career than his appearance - after all, he's just been nominated for a Tony award for his role in Good Night And Good Luck. Based on the news article shared on The Scholarly Note (thescholarlynote.com), it seems George Clooney is still going strong, dishing out laughs and charm wherever he goes.
A Brief History of George Clooney's Hair
George Clooney has never been one to shy away from a bold hairstyle - remember his infamous "salt and pepper" locks that made him look like a distinguished silver fox? But for his latest role as Edward R. Murrow, the actor decided to take a dramatic new direction with dark brown hair. And, um, let's just say it hasn't exactly been met with universal acclaim.
But George isn't one to worry about what others think - after all, he started going grey at the tender age of 25 and has spent most of his life sporting a distinguished silver fox look. "Honestly nothing makes you look older than being 63 and dying your hair," he chuckled during an interview on CBS Mornings.
So there you have it - George Clooney's latest hairstyle may be getting mixed reviews, but at least he's having fun with it. And who knows? Maybe his twins will even start to appreciate their dad's A-list pals once they've grown up a bit. But for now, Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande are the real stars in Ella and Alexander's eyes.
Good Night And Good Luck: A Brief Primer
For those unfamiliar with George Clooney's latest project, here's a quick rundown: Good Night And Good Luck is based on his 2005 film of the same name, which starred David Strathairn as Edward R. Murrow and George in a supporting role as CBS President Fred Friendly.
The movie focused on Murrow's groundbreaking reports on Senator Joseph McCarthy's unfounded claims of communist infiltration in the US government - a story that culminated in a fiery confrontation between the two men on Murrow's CBS broadcast ahead of the senator's humiliation at the Army–McCarthy hearings and subsequent censure from the Senate.
Clooney's latest stage adaptation brings this powerful true story to life, with George himself taking on the lead role as Murrow. And based on his performance at the Tonys, it seems he's done a remarkable job - even if his hairdo didn't quite steal the show.
