Photos of George and Amal Clooney in Milan this past weekend cascaded across social media and celebrity news sites. They looked elegant emerging from a car on Saturday night and effortlessly cool at the airport the next day. But what were they doing in the Italian fashion capital? Yes, they were in town for the Winter Olympics, but the Clooneys turned up for a specific event: the Opening Gala for the Omega House.

Actor George Clooney might be a Hollywood legend, but when he returns to his native Kentucky, he is sure to visit a bakery in the Maysville community for one particular pie. In an interview with Local 12, Clooney admitted that when he is in town, he stops by Magee's Bakery for a piece of the transparent pie that has captured the hearts and stomachs of locals since the 1800s.

The exodus from Hollywood to shores not presided over by Donald Trump has been busy and loud. Ellen DeGeneres, Robin Wright and Courtney Love moved to England; Rosie O'Donnell opted for Ireland; Eva Longoria, Spain. Other Trump critics, including Richard Gere, Lena Dunham and Ryan Gosling, have upped sticks without citing the re-election as a motivating factor. In the case of Clooney, however, there has appeared little doubt that his decision to gain French citizenship was primarily because of Trump, whose re-election he energetically campaigned against.

French officials said that foreign nationals who contribute to the country's international influence and economic well-being are eligible for naturalization under French law. George Clooney's international star power and its potential benefits for French cinema, combined with Amal Cloony's steady work with French academic institutions and international organizations as a human-rights lawyer, fit the bill. They contribute, through their distinguished actions, to France's international influence and cultural outreach, the government said of the Clooneys. They maintain strong personal, professional and family ties with our country.

The script by Baumbach and Emily Mortimer finds Clooney - sorry, Jay Kelly - in a sort of midlife funk. He's 60, a universally beloved, deeply earnest movie hunk who has worked his way to the top and found, well, artifice. Kelly's careful facade - the stories he tells about himself - soon gets chipped away. On his way up the hills of Hollywood, he apparently left some personal carnage behind. Jay Kelly is about those who sacrificed to get him there.

The star's bombshell New York Times op-ed, titled I Love Joe Biden. But We Need a New Nominee, became a critical part of the left-wing pressure on former President Joe Biden, urging him to drop out of the presidential race. In the piece, Clooney described seeing Biden's mental decline up close, writing that the one battle he [Biden] cannot win is the fight against time. The former president dropped out of the race less than two weeks after the op-ed was published.

"You're chasing your tail, man. It's going to bite you," Clooney told Doane. "I am who I am. I look like what I look like, and it'll be all right."

We are not going to win in November with this president, Clooney wrote at the time. On top of that, we won't win the House, and we're going to lose the Senate. This isn't only my opinion; this is the opinion of every senator and congress member and governor that I've spoken with in private. Every single one, irrespective of what he or she is saying publicly.

An old man leans on a stone jetty nearby, his fishing pole perched on the wall and angled out over the lake, the line disappearing down into the water, a perfect triangle. The window shades in the house are drawn. The Clooneys just arrived yesterday. The house is right there, visible from the water and from the old man's fishing spot: a large, elegant rectangle built in the eighteenth century with lovely tall windows,

The numbers are in, and CNN's live broadcast of 'Good Night, and Good Luck,' the Broadway play starring George Clooney as Edward R. Murrow, is a ratings winner.

He does it mainly by stumbling upon the biggest story of the decade, that a sitting president is mentally infirm and ought to be 25th Amendment'ed right out of office, and then burying it.

"Yes and he works his tuchus off, they could fight about that," Cohen suggested.
