Gorgeous George Clooney's Home Page

George Timothy Clooney was born May 6th, 1961 in a little town called Augusta, Kentucky (pop: 1500). George's parents, Nick and Nina, met at a beauty pagent, where Nina was a runner-up and Nick was an emencee. George and his siblings met many people, on the account they moved in and out of many schools. As a matter of fact, George had once attended five grade schools in eight years!!! When they finally settled down, George was known as the class clown and athlete. Being an actor had not been Clooneys first career choice. The one thing he had always wanted to be was a baseball player.
Going to college was always on George's Things To Do List, but, apparently, not on his Things To Finish List!!! He spent three years in college, but was still a freshman when he left. He, "partied a lot, got drunk a lot," as he describes it. While wandering around, trying to think of what to do with his life, his life took a dramatic turn: He was introduced to acting by his cousin Miguel Ferrer. After being,"truly seduced by acting," in his first small role in a low-budget film, which was never released, Clooney cut tobacco for money to move to Hollywood. After a string of hopeless televison pilots, Clooney found a role he would get noticed in: Detective Falconer on the hit show Sisters. That got him noticed with NBC Studios and, eventually, lead up to his hit role as Douglas Ross, the womanizing, yet, changing of heart pediatrician on the hit drama ER.
After getting noticed on ER, writer/actor/director Quentin Tarantino decided that he wanted George to play his brother-in-crime, Seth Gecko, in the hit cult movie From Dusk Till Dawn. The movie lead to several other offers including writer Jack Taylor in the romantic movie One Fine Day, with Michelle Pfeiffer; Batman/Bruce Wayne in Batman and Robin; and as General Tom DeVoe, in the first movie by the Dreamworks production company called The Peacemaker, with Nicole Kidman. Although he lives in "Tinseltown", he still hangs onto reality and understands that it could have went, "the other way". That he may not have made it where he is today. And when people ask whats next, Clooney answers honestly: "I don't know". He is one of those few actors who understand that it could be taken away from him in a flash. That the public could just say, "George Who?" in ten years. He saw it happen to his amazingly talented Aunt (Rosemary Clooney, the famous 50s-60s singer) and he understands that if he's going to get anything done, it has to be now. Clooney is also aware that it has been his boyish good looks that got his foot in the door. "People say, 'Well, doesn't it bother you when [women] say "hunk?" he explained. "And you say, 'You know what? At least they're not saying "schmuck!"" Sign Guestbook View Guestbook
