From Patchouli to Prada (Clooney’s “mystery” girl?)

*Broadcast Temporarily Interrrupted*
I can understand that some may have chosen to add malicious attacks and comments under this article but I don’t plan to respond to them, unless of course they are directed towards me and then…I might, because then it’s just funny. You may feel that my intentions in this article may have been dishonorable at best, but I wish no ill will towards anyone.
Sarah may have rubbed me the wrong way at times but I have no negative feelings towards her, believe it or not. I wasn’t going to come out here like Capt. Save-a-ho and write an article defending random attacks by strangers on the internet when I wrote it, but I was trying to humanize this rampant frenzy to search out her history and to stabilize it if I could. I tried to show her in the truthful light of someone that everyone could be familiar with. No need to turn her into a GOD or to turn her into a DEMON. She’s just a regular ass human, and guess what?….so is George Clooney.
If you are tremendously hurt or inspired by anything either of them do that is broadcasted through the media which paints them in either light, the only real problems that you have do not come from these people, who you will never likely come in contact with in real life, it comes for your own issues. There’s a show for that, it’s called Dr. Phil. Sorry they cancelled Lilith Fair.
I will not censor your comments, I am against that fully, but don’t expect me to feed into them either, positively or negatively. Maybe another mistake on my part is that I am failing to remove this article, but I do take great time and effort to compose my articles and thoughts and I view them as my own form of art. Words to me are something that I can form and something that I can create or express with, even if I can’t afford a $2,500 wacom tablet or expensive musical equipment. If you think my writing is shit…that’s cool. I think most film today is shit and most of the celebrities that people worship are talentless hacks. This is my forum which you are welcome to visit and comment on as you see fit. That’s all that it is; that and a forum for friends of mine whose views that I respect. I hope people are enjoying it. Maybe you’ll enjoy another article, maybe you don’t give a fuck. Either way thanks for visiting and I appreciate your time.
Now that I’ve said that, you are very welcome to continue
————————————————————
I woke up Saturday morning when my phone rang at 9:13 pacific standard time. It was a message from my friend KB Smooth texting me from Rhode Island. The message said “Sarah Larson is dating George Clooney…” I got up and went to my computer. I searched on line to find pictures of Sarah and Clooney at a celebrity coctail party in Venice for the release of his new film Michael Clayton, where they were hanging out with Spike Lee, Bill Murray, and Richard Gere. Everything else that I found on the internet about her dating Clooney, refers to her as a “mystery girl“. No one seems to know anything about her except her name and age (28) but they seem to be searching frantically. Some refer to her as a possible “Go-Go dancer” but without confirmation. I don’t understand the intense interest, but I can say one thing; she’s not much of a fucking mystery. I’ve known her since she was 10.
The main difference was that she had a side-pontytail when I met her 2 years prior. The photo above is from our 7th grade Junior High year book. You may be thinking, “Damn! That’s fucked up. I can’t believe you posted that photo on the internet.” If you have this year book, then you know that I don’t have room to talk shit because my picture is actually worse. Yeah, I know, it was 1991 and it was a long time ago. If you think about it though, what’s really fucked up is that, at the time when the picture was taken, George Clooney was already a suave 30 yr old adult man with sideburns who was playing Booker Brookes on Roseanne. That’s 2 years older than Sarah is right now. When I was 6 years old and pretending that I was StreetHawk, this cat actually got to appear on an episode. That same year he started his 2 year run on the Facts of Life for crissakes! If Alan Thicke wrote the theme song to a show that you were a major character on, then you’ve been around for a minute. Hell, he was even getting acting gigs before I was a fetus floating next to a dangerous IUD.It’s wierd seeing somebody that you’ve known for almost 20 years in photographs romantically linking them with an Oscar winner. Sarah and I have attended the same schools since elementary and all the way up through college. We even lived in the same house at one point. She dated a former bandmate of mine for 6 years and was my ex-girlfriend’s best friend for years as well. We’ve been on road trips. Now everyone is so fascinated with her. I know why the people who know her are, but the rest of you…what’s the deal? What the fuck do you really want to know? She’s just some broad from Kent, a town located between Seattle and Tacoma Washington. A town, when we were growing up there, that had something to prove. When people live in a suburb like that, they like nothing more than to go to parties, get drunk off of their parents shitty beer and punch eachother in the throat.
The same day I found out about her new popularity, my mom told me that she was on the cover of People magazine and, later on E!, she was shown in a brief clip. I had been at work all day, however, before I left I had emailed a couple of publications stating simply that I knew her. I got a response and I spoke on the phone a couple of times with one publication in particular. It was insane. I was just interested in the process at first but I started to get swept away with the whole situation. I held back with info trying to see what they would say to me and, basically, trying to read the British man on the other end of the line. It was a little shady right off the bat. I got questions like “Would you say she was a maneater?” and gave responses like, “Um…no, I wouldn’t say that she was a ‘man eater‘…” Eventually, after being awakened early on my day off with a phone call, I said that I wouldn’t link him up with an ex-boyfriend of hers unless I heard something solid instead of bullshit. I got a monetary offer and a contract was sent to my friend. I don’t like feeling like I’m on the other end of a hustle and, although money is nice, neither of us (the ex-boyfriend and I) were out to destroy or hurt anyone, so we basically both decided not to take the cash or to deal with them further. Plus, when you sign a contract like that, there is a clause where you can’t speak about your story to anyone for at least 3 months afterwards. That means that if they twist your shit around, which they will inevitably do, you can’t make a rebuttal anywhere else publically. Fuck it! It wasn’t enough to build my bronze statue in which I’m holding a giant lazer anyway. I’m spilling my guts here instead. In my own forum and in the appropriate context. I don’t really “hate” anyone, but I do know that all of this shit is going to be pouring out soon from one direction or another.
I lived in a house near Lake Meridian and Sarah lived about 3 houses away. Her family was nice enough and she was the oldest of 3 sisters. She also has a little brother and a step dad. Her mom had remarried after a divorce due to Sarah’s dad being gay and remarrying another man. It was actually very interesting because he had lived for a long time with the AIDS virus and, as I recall, scientists were interested in finding out why so that they could learn something more about the disease. I believe that he eventually died around 2002 or ’03. This should be the one thing, if anything, that should really draw some sympathy for her, but I don’t know how something like that is printed for a headline. It’s most likely in a shady manner, and I know that the tabloids are already aware of this to a certain degree because I was asked directly about it.
There is a post from a guy calling himself Pizza T on the internet, who not only calls himself a “hippy thug” but also claims that he dated Sarah for 6 years. Sites are wondering if it’s true because they haven’t been able to “confirm” it. Fuck, I’ll “confirm” it right now. It’s true. Their relationship started in High School. Our high school was fucked up too. You were either living in a country club, crazy ghetto broke and hood, or stuck being left in the middle like the rest of us. I was even supposed to walk at graduation with Sarah but, since the school hated me, I was barely allowed to walk at all. I walked by myself as the last student behind a kid in a wheel chair.
Sarah wasn’t rocking $3 million dollars worth of Bulgari jewels back then, she was wearing hemp necklaces, listening to the Grateful Dead, and attending Phish concerts. When I was 18 I got in my car with some friends, her boyfriend at the time included, and I travelled around California for about 3 months, scamming fast food, sleeping in my Datsun 510 with the fake Jaguar hood ornament, using psychedelics, and getting into free concerts. Sarah made a few trips down from Kent to see Tommy (Pizza T) visit, camp, etc. I wasn’t in a band with Tommy yet, but the majority of the people on the trip were. The band was called MUSIC and we would set up shows and they would play them in random towns we’d hit up on the trip. We were notorious for making offensive and/or low quality flyers to advertise. It was 1997 and quite a few such flyers that we made were contsructed from game pieces for contests at a fast food chain that I used to like to scam food from. The game pieces had photos of characters from a big movie that was out that summer. The movie was Batman and Robin starring, none other than George Clooney.
This photo of Sarah above is from that summer tour. It was taken at a spot called Whole in the Wall in Garberville, Ca where we had all slept that night. Some random middle aged naked guy showed up and decided to lounge out for a tan and we actually only took this picture of her so that we could snap him in it and remember that day. That brings me to a quick point. Sarah looks a lot tanner now and her hair isn’t blonde anymore, like it used to be. Another issue that it brings up is that, this was taken 10 years ago and I can’t seem to easily find any pictures of her that are more recent. She was there all of time but nobody seemed to feel the need to hold on to any pictures of her. Around this time I was closer to almost anyone else but her. I was a lot closer with her boyfriend and I actually met him through her. She, unfortunately, began to take on more of the role as someone’s girlfriend who complained a lot. The girl who, when everyone was hanging out and being dirty and happy and crazy and whatever else, seem to be bringing people down. We didn’t give a fuck about anything back then. It was a good time, in fact, it will always be one of the best times of my life. Things were new and exciting, but the metalic nagging shriek of, “TOMMY!” will always ring around like loose change in my memory bank. She was becoming a girl who’s bullshit and complaining sucked everyone into the drama of a relationship that they weren’t even in, through mere proximaty. This feeling continued pretty much until the last time I saw her which was years and years later.
Sure, we’ve kicked it by ourselves in more that one situation and gotten along alright, so I can definitely say that having a significant other there to fire off demands at played a part in lowering her social value, and that’s understandable. She has also played a mediator in a few situations of drama, but I wouldn’t say that was enough to cancel out the amount of drama that she had, at times, created herself. This is why I guarantee her past to unfold in no time. If you are one of the friends that was bitched about, or had to be approached by your friend on behalf of his girlfriend The 2 Coreys style, you have quite a bit of built up anger towards her. If you remember some of the specific drama you might be ready to blow.
Everyone knew she was prone to complaining and frustration, but when “Pizza T” arrived to school at Green River Community College one day after she had punched him in the face and left noticeable proof, it took it to another level. Obviously, he didn’t want to talk about it for too long at the time, it’s not the proudest moment you can have, but he did tell me what happened. She simply got upset about something trivial and punched him. Later, he called her out saying things like, “You fucking punched me in the head, Sarah!” It reminded me of Nanny 911 where things have gone too far and you can’t reverse time, all you can do is try to explain why what they did was excessive and wrong, all the while knowing that you can’t teach them why it’s wrong but can only help them learn that they can’t pull shit like that anymore. Later when we all moved to Olympia to attend The Evergreen State College shit escalated.
A bunch of us lived in a house on North St. across from a Masonic Lodge and down the street from the old Tumwater Brewery. It was a house where the rent was cheap because, otherwise, the owners would have had to pay to make it liveable for humans. There was a giant marijuana tapestry on the ceiling of the living room and from the street, you could see armed Marines in camo face-paint, which were cut from recruitment posters and taped in the windows like they were guarding the house. It was a shit hole and I slept on a couch that was always at least a little damp for some reason. A far cry from a Venice Coctail party. Sarah was always a little high maintenance for our crew, yet she lived in shitty places like this with us. She would talk with Tommy about how she wanted things in the house to be a certain way, or someone to move out, etc. etc. but she moved into a house that others lived in and tried to change it. Everyone else wanted her out because she would yell at everyone. General rule of thumb for anyone: If someone is not fucking you then they don’t have to put up with your shit. It got to the point where, if she ever even approached me with anything I would respond bluntly and firm to whatever she said, and make it clear that I wasn’t going to go into a conversation and listen to any of it. If I didn’t already agree, I don’t already agree, I don’t want anyone to try and work me over. She eventually moved out. She always needed everyone to tend to her and people weren’t getting sympathetic, they were getting pissed. Her powers didn’t work on me. She was just some chick I’d known for years and I was never attracted to her. She always kind of looked like a Gelfling to me anyway, but if she could work sympathy out of her looks she would have. You can’t really blame her, people adjust by what they are shown in through environments.
Sarah eventually rented a room in a house where one of our other good friends and former roommates had moved. There was a garage turned dance studio there. Sarah was still sewing up sundresses and trying to be earthy. She was studying an East Indian dance called Orisi which she would often bust out in the most innappropriate moments. Her “best friend” was my live-in girlfriend and we had our own place at that time. There were situations where I would reluctantly agree to go over to her place and have dinner. She would subtley put down my girlfriend in front of her and would always seem to try and show off her dance moves or body in some way. If I left the room to sit down, she would be in front of me in minutes shaking her hips and blocking my views/pathways. I wanted to put a gun to my dome in those situations. Sarah had made a few advances or inappropriate gestures towards me, even in front of the girlfriend and regardless of the fact that her boyfriend and I were friends. I became resentful in ways because, to me, it seemed like she could be very domineering towards my lady. I always felt that she would use her to make herself feel better. Her advances towards me may not have been necessarily “sexual”, but they were definitely innappropriate. I honestly believe that at the heart of everything was a need for focus and attention to be on her. I don’t think that she could even accept that someone loved someone else that was a good friend of hers, because the attention wasn’t all about her. It wasn’t about me or anyone else, I don’t think, I think it was about having the focus towards her at all times. If you disrespect someone that I love, I lose respect for you, it’s that simple. It’s quite possible that she had a lot going on, herself, that she didn’t verbalize within my earshot.
Sarah eventually hooked up with our former roommate of ours that she was living with in the new house now. Tommy found out and all hell broke loose, as you could imagine. They had been together for 6 years and it ended like that. At that point I was in a band with Pizza T and he would make all of his dramatic and drawn out phonecalls to her from my house. This was probably because I had more of a chill and welcoming environment to deal with such manners in than the chaotic environment he was living in. This was a bad time for me because, since Sarah was “best friends” with my girlfriend, she was always over as well. This drama eminated from my house and I didn’t want it there. I would often comment that I didn’t feel comfortable with her coming over anymore.
I’m still friends with the guy she wound up hooking up with, in fact. I haven’t even talked to Tommy in 2 years. We had a huge falling out which resulted in him blocking me from accessing our bands myspace page and posting bulletins and emails telling everyone (approx. 4,000 fans) that I had died of AIDS. Yeah, were are not friends, but that doesn’t mean that I’m not going to tell this story the way that I saw it. He got fucked over pretty hard and took it pretty hard. The guy she had transitioned to is the one that I’ve been talking with and who turned down offers to talk with publications. Interesting things are coming out from talks with everyone about this whole Clooney situation. The second boyfriend told me that he didn’t even know, until I just told him, that Sarah was still dating Tommy when they hooked up. I was catching the situation from all angles so I know that he sure as fuck thought they were. She said that they hadn’t been together for 3 months but I saw them together all of the time just prior. My girlfriend had seen them together regularly too, but she would relay bullshit like that to me from Sarah. “Well, she says they haven’t been together for 3 months.” Whatever. That’s a random things that some women decide. Don’t guess when you started dating ever! You started dating the minute that they decided that they wanted to in their own heads. Same thing when you break up. If they had decided at some point that they should break up with you and then find someone that they would rather fuck, it’s over and they “already told you“. It helps if they cut you off for a week or so first. That way they can always say that you knew about it. The logic is more than flawed, sure, but I can’t even say that she didn’t believe it. My girlfriend eventually went batshit psycho crazy and disappeared from our home one day. I should have seen it coming she used that same logic on me eventually. Another thing that they both did have in common as friends was that they were a little flighty. They hardcore believed in fairies and wanted to do shit like, “paint magic in the woods” or whatever other mystical bullshit they could think of. My ex-girlfriend once told me that she had actually left milk out for those fucking fairies and Sarah would tell me about transcending her physical body and travelling in spirit form around her house. Maybe they believe that they didn’t cheat on anyone. I don’t know maybe they didn’t. Maybe we don’t have the “magic potions” to see reality. Maybe, but I took the same “magic potions” that they did and probably more of it.
This was all around 2001. From a psychological standpoint, I would say the following. Sarah had been in a 6 year relationship and wanted to move out of it into something “new”. Tommy had the same issues, this was their only really serious relationship. The problems were that she didn’t have the integrity or sense to handle it correctly, from what I saw, and he was allowing it to continue and to be disrepected out of fear of the unknown without her. That’s what happens. It’s your first serious relationship. I got fucked over myself, it’s logical. Sometimes people actually don’t know how to hurt someone to theri face and make young, foolish decisions. Sarah‘s rude awakening happened when she thought that she could pull the same shit on the new guy and it didn’t fly. I know that she had lashed out and tried to strike him in the past too. He blocked it once and she hurt her self. She wasn’t always out punching everyone and being violent, but she was definitely known to trip and act a fool. She had become accustomed to having someone take whatever abuse she chose to dish out, and so she vented in that manner. He kicked her to the curb. The two guy’s became friends again and I saw Sarah out of default, until my girlfriend cooked us up lives as transient mental basketcases.
Last time that I saw Sarah was right after she hooked up with some goon named Dan Randolph. I met him twice, I think. I believe that they came into the Rang Dong once which, in it’s heyday, was the greatest Vietnamese Karaoke bar of all time. He didn’t seem to be very interesting or fitting. They moved to Vegas. Next I hear, she’s on Fear Factor shortly after. She actually wins after that guy basically carries her. Here’s where some debate comes into play. The Fear Factor site labels Sarah Larson as a “Go-Go dancer“. Pizza T‘s letter denies this claim, but it’s just wishful thinking. How would he know? Sorry but it’s true. If you don’t want to hear that and you believe that everything you’ve read on the internet is true, you can stop now. I died of AIDS 2 years ago, so who gives a shit about what I’m about to type anyway? A source I know who worked at the production company for Fear Factor told me that she was scouted Go-Go dancing. I was informed that they actually had to call her down off of a pole to offer her a spot on the show. The problem with tabloids and media is that it’s like the game of telephone. Go-go dancer can be changed very easily into a stripper when skewed. From there, that get’s morphed into hooker and eventually you are a crack whore murderer running a child-porn ring. Apparently, Cocktail waitress gets morphed into Actress/Model fairly easily too, because as far as anyone I know is informed, that’s a load of bullshit too. That’s why nobody can find anything on her, because they are typing in “actress/model” on their search engines, instead of “Random Chicks From Kent“.
With questions like, “Does she want to hide her background?” being asked by Hollywood, she’s becoming an enigma. I don’t know if she is trying to hide anything. I do know that she doesn’t look that comfortable in the pictures that I’ve seen. It’s got to be an overwhelming experience to have to absorb for someone. Maybe nobody has asked her anything. Last I heard she was supposed to marry that guy she was on Fear Factor with, but that obviously didn’t happen. She got a B.S. degree from Evergreen and then up and moved to Vegas. I’m not trying to attack or hurt anyone, but I’m not ashamed of my background and I’ve been in a mental health unit. Then again, I’m not trying to be a politician or a Hollywood darling. She’s just a girl who had occasionally displayed some selfish tendancies and became clearly too high maintenance for the crowd she was involved with. Maybe she felt that she wanted to get “somewhere” even if she didn’t know where that place was. Maybe all that she knew was that her current environments weren’t gong to nurture that. Most likely, she didn’t really piece it together all that in depth, but rather just reacted. She didn’t have a severe drug addiction, or drown a baby. It’s not that interesting. What’s interesting to me is that she went from E to E!, from Patchouli to Prada, from Orisi to Go-go….actually, her Orisi always had quite a bit of Go-Go in it. I say, “Good luck in the game?” I personally would represent where I came from and maybe she will. If I was in her position, I wouldn’t be worrying about how mysterious I might appear to the public. At this point, especially with such drastic transitions, I would be wondering about if I was still a mystery to myself. Your background only has an effect of you if you want something specific to happen. If you are a gangster rapper, the public finding out that you haven’t offed anyone can actually fuck up your career, but, like the slogan for the new Clooney film Michael Clayton states “The Truth Can Be Adjusted“. If anyone knows that, it’s the media.

“desperate attempts for fortune and fame by eating bugs and eating bums and eating dick”
lol
I reckon she means “run away” from the feeding frenzy that follows her and GC on any average day – not the man himself – he’s not a heartthrob to millions for nothing. So his politics are a little facile but then he’s a movie star not a politician.
His life would be crazy and I should think a major antidote to any fame hungry wannabe. They invite the intrusion and then can’t live with it – actually I think he can live with it as he knew what he was getting into but her relationship with fame is more complicated as she hasn’t formally “earned” her place (not that this seems to matter these days).
In order to stay sane you’d have to take cover once in a while. Seems pretty obvious to me. Plus she gets a lot of extremely bitchy comments from people who assume they know her and everything she’s about and you’d need to get back to your own people once in a while to dilute that.
Dead C just wanted to get his views across without them being manipulated by a PR company or celeb-fawning magazine, he was willing to tell it how he saw it and withstand whatever backlash might arise for doing so. It’s pretty interesting that this comments section has become what it has… I wonder if it will ever end? Surely it could be a contender for “the longest comment section resulting from a blog ever….”
For the life of me I can’t figure out why people would want to slag SL off without knowing her personally. Until she does something really awful I can’t see what the problem with her is. To paraphrase Dead C ‘She’s just some random chick from Kent’, good luck to her.
reports are that both jennifer aniston and courtney cox snubbed gc a the pre-oscar fundraising bash held at the beverly hills hotel the night before the oscars. true?
http://www.entertainmentwise.com/news/40826/jennifer-aniston-snubs-george-clooney-at-the-oscars
oops, the article mentions that the snub took place at another venue, a bar called Nineteen12. the ‘night before’ fundraiser was reportedly held at the beverly hills hotel, so maybe this bar meetup was a continuation of the festivities …
Hello astrology ethusiasts…I unfortunately don’t have much time for this but wanted to respond to comments by Starskinsky and Mafalda…
Starskinsky:
I like how you try to thoughtfully examine relationships keeping an open mind. Your comments about the use of their relationship as so much pimped entertainment is true. Look at many/most of the comments here. People find it irresistable to make up stories about people needing to think they have all the answers and know more. Then, in this type of chat environment, to analyse each others arrogance and argue about who is right. Most likely a great deal of challenging aspects between mars/moon and neptune/saturn like to come here and work it out.
Your desire to be open minded and thoughtfully examine a relationship that has been made public is so refreshing in this type of environment, so often based upon envy frenzy… Astrology takes a long time of applied examination in our own and others lives to truly begin to understand. As far as your question about anything being “written in the stars” or predetermined by astrological aspects…absolutely not. We have free will and exercise it daily whether we know we are choosing or not. The temptation with astrology, numerology, etc. is to over simplify and to generalize that if this then that. If you want to believe that you are not creating your own reality you will feel helpless and let outside influences run your life.
Studying plantetary energies in a birth chart are opportunities to see into possibilites for talents and interests/behavior patterns/ and make decisions for conscious growth. Some are easy opportunities to harvest and some are more challenging. The reason people who have chart comparison showing saturn aspects tend to be in long term relationships is that saturn aspects show lessons brought to us by relationships that can create long term opportunities for personal growth. Easy aspects show areas of fun and feel good but growth usually doesnt come without some challenge…avoidance of challenge equals avoidance of growth. Challenge keeps us interested. The need to compromise makes us mature and less self centered. By effort we can grow in long term relationships if that outcome is what we want. People can chose to abuse energy and use it for power over another….both parties have to agree to engage in abusive power trips. Saturn isn’t making it happen. I have found my Saturn aspect relationships are with those who naturally seem to understand me the best, perhaps caring about me for many lifetimes. With difficult aspects I have often found the need to work through what felt like some block or obstruction….always to an unexpected advantage because I look for that outcome and make it happen. I could chose to avoid personal growth and feel oppressed by a situation.
Luckily, we create our own reality and it isn’t determined by planets but looking at the planets can give us a better understanding of how to make the most of a basic pattern we have chosen for this life. Astrology can be a tool but makes a very poor crutch. I quit doing charts for people because I found too often they began to limit their lives with the information I had given.
What is so easy to forget is that if we expect an outcome we create that outcome. Astrology can be just another trap of expectation and another opportunity to give our power away to an outside source.
That said, I have aways found relationships a very interesting study for astrological attractions and lessons. The energetic tendancies of attraction, long term interaction and breakup are unmistakable and undeniable. I have been looking at the progressed planets between both GC and SL charts. Not only is there a natal chart but there is the progressed chart and transits as well. Everything has to be looked at to get the full picture. Obviously there isn’t time to go into everything here but if you want to see a progressed chart find an ephemeris and count one day forward for each year of life beginning with the birth day. When you reach the current year for the persons age that would be the progressed chart.
It happens that SL’s progressed moon and mars are in exact conjunctions with GC’s Moon/saturn natal conjunction. Wow, what an emotional connection that is.. If people only have progressed aspects attracting them, when the aspect passes in a few months, year, etc…so does the relationship. I see plenty between the natal charts to keep them interested in each other for as long as they choose to interact.
Actually the placement of the Sun shows the father influence. There is a need for self discipline when saturn aspects. It can also show where there might be oppression or too much restriction from a parent…but that is a powerful motivator and teacher if worked through without blame or denial. The midheaven shows professional career and the 8th house is other peoples money so those houses will reflect more information about business relationships than the 7th house which is personal relationships. When you look at a chart divide it into quadrants. The horizon is ascended/ first house cusp, descendent/7th house cusp. The vertical divide is MC/Midheaven/career 10th house cusp and IC/ home and family 4th house cusp. Whatever aspects those cusps is very signifiant in one’s life. Without Sarah’s exact birth time it would be speculation to guess about the parent significance of her Sun and Moon aspects without actual house placement. Given the nature of this web site and tendency for people to use information to feed negative purposes I hesitate to offer much personal observations about either person. The ascendent cannot be accurately calculated without exact birth time and place/longitude and latitude. I am giving you information that you can use to learn more on your own if you choose. I have a different guess of Sarah’s possible ascendent and again…guessing is only speculation and takes us down the road of pure fantasy…where obsession lives. Sarah has many planet influences of Sagitarius/Jupiter that could be in the first house, tenth or eleventh house. Her moon could be cusp Leo/virgo conjunct the midheaven. All would be similar to a surface impression of sag or leo rising. If Sarah’s father died or left there is most likely another strong male fatherly influence that matches her sun aspects. Or, she could be manifesting fathering her own destiny. By creating a hosting career that gave her freedom, a home and 200,000.00 a year salary she certainly seems to be capable of handling her own affairs effectively…strong sun influence.
If you look at astrology as the appearance of potential rather than what has to be you will find it easier to “read.” Study on your own chart and take all the web sites that profess to do the charts of celebrities with a grain of salt. There is so much misuse of information on the internet for sensational entertainment purposes…study astrology, question all information and test it’s validity in your own life. In the Ancient Schools of Inner Teaching they often had the words “Know Thyself” written above the entrance.
Thanks for keeping an open mind and for being honest about your level of understanding. You choose integrity and ethics…good commodities that will serve you well in every life.
Mafalda:
It is fun to share information with like minds. It sounds to me like you have studied the aspects between planets and expect the outcome to match the book steriotype. What in life works that way? What is there except constant exception? Say for instance, that your boyfriends sun is in your 7th house…but his mars is square your mercury. Tough to live with the argumentative tenancies that challenge can bring unless is there also an aspect like venus opposite the moon to keep you feeling loved and appreciated. Every gemini on the planet’s sun is in my 7th house. Many people’s moon is there but that doesn’t mean there is anything else going on to make a marriage. In all the years of doing charts and studying astrology I have never seen anything that could represent “perfect partnership/soulmate,” etc. Whether we chose to be together or not is determined by character: Personal integrity to remain faithful, honesty, ability to be intimate, loving open heart, trust, etc., as astrological aspects. Many people choose to shut down emotionally and use relationships for a temporary feeling of superiority over another. Again, the planets in their chart don’t make them act that way but can show a tendency toward dishonesty or self deception, etc.
I don’t see SL’s venus/uranus conjunction opposite either her moon or GC’s moon. I see her venus/uranus conjunction without challenge as an indicator of her desire for change-uranus and light social fun in beautiful surroundings-venus. If that were square to saturn she might find herself feeling challenged by wanting more of something than what was easily accomplished….or, facing challenges and with work over time, making a successful career out of some service that required lots of change and social interaction. Do you see it isn’t the planets that rule us it is the choices we make with the areas of life that attract us. As far as saturn being a wall….our own attitudes and expectations are the only walls. I think I explained the importance and good of saturn above. It is funny to me that Saturn gets a bad rap. Human’s don’t like to take responsibility and we don’t like to work hard….but is is always a good outcome when we do.
It might help you with interpretation to slow down, keep your mind open to all the aspects and house placements. Try not to look for aspects that seem to prove your expectations to be right. Scientific investigation has proven that what we look for we find…often toward a wrong determination.
Find your own truth and be happy.
Best Wishes for a consciously amazing life.
WHAT!!!??? Anyone else see or hear more on this disgusting story?

George Clooney has told his girlfriend he is ready to become a father.
Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:11 pm
The 46-year-old actor, famed for his bachelor lifestyle, wants to settle down with Sarah Larson, 29, following their motorbike crash last September, which left him with a cracked rib and her a broken foot.
A source is quoted by Britain’s Daily Express newspaper as saying: ‘George said he got a terrible shock and realised how transient life is and how we never know how much time we have left. He has been in a lot of pain since the accident.
‘Sarah feels her biological clock is ticking and wants to get pregnant by the time she’s 30, so that has influenced George a lot. He has dated so many women and he doesn’t want to lose this one along with all the others.’ George – who has previously romanced Renée Zellweger, Mariella Frostrup and British model Lisa Snowden – has also said he wants to turn his houses in Los Angeles and Italy into family homes.
Last month, the ‘Michael Clayton’ star asked former cocktail Sarah to move into his Hollywood Hills mansion.
A source said: ‘Sarah is always with George anyway, so it just makes sense. Plus he likes having her around. She has made him very happy and doesn’t stress him out. ‘She’s easygoing and loving, and that’s what he needs right now.’ The couple met last June after Sarah served him drinks at the ‘Ocean’s Thirteen’ premiere in Las Vegas.
She has since met his family, proving how serious their relationship has become.

They keep rehasing that story Taz. He said out his mouth about a month ago at the BAFTA’s that he was happy the way he was. Yes, she met his mom and dad at the Michael Clayton premiere in NYC. I seriously doubt he reproduces with her, especially since she needs to get away from him at weeks at a time. How would they raise the kid in two states.

“It might help you with interpretation to slow down, keep your mind open to all the aspects and house placements. Try not to look for aspects that seem to prove your expectations to be right. Scientific investigation has proven that what we look for we find…often toward a wrong determination.”
THANKS no doubt! I do keep my mind open to all aspects and house placements!!!!!!!
Thanks again!
cheer
How empty inside must George be? What was Sarah thinking while she was spreading ’em on that police car? Was she thinking? Now I know how a ob/gyn feels.
Saw the crotch shots of SL without the stars. So, that I guess that means there are no law suits pending. They do exist!!
Saw the movie Four Brothers recently. Mark Wahlberg is a sexy mutha in it. It must be the thug in his character. :-)
GC is a bit soft to me. I don’t know why I hadn’t notice it before. Being a man doesn’t mean that you’ve nailed hundreds of women. Yep, it’s his business, but yuck! Gene Simmons is yucky.
How must it feel to go into a relationship that is already stamped with an expiration date? Did she think she was the one who could tame him?
Assuming of course, her contract was renewed and we see her again after the Oscar debacle.
Here are a couple of little gems submitted by IMDb posters. As one poster remarked, it’s not just the press and public that are snickering about the Clooney Oscar embarrassment. His own colleagues are shaking their heads and rolling their eyes.

Awful Truth Live: Clooney Under Attack!
Categories: oscars 2008, the awful truth
Good news: Maybe it’ll be a pretty hairy show after all. There are some very famous folks backstage who are already wondering which was more awkward on the carpet, Travolta’s hair or Clooney’s date (whom he “completely” shined on) [insert sarcasm]. Money’s on the latter, as people were screaming, “George, why’d you even bother?”
Yeah, dude, why did ya?
Also, already hearing Clooney is getting serious flak for his Hillary joke (he cracked that he was feeling overshadowed next to Daniel Day-Lewis, the Clinton to his Obama), and that he’s being lambasted for it. Jeez, Mrs. C works fast!

Dear Ted:
Norm of the Las Vegas Journal clearly knows George Clooney better than you do. He reported breathlessly on Clooney’s “romantic” Valentine’s Day dinner with Sarah Larson and her boss in Vegas, and he described the actor’s singing and dancing with Larson around a very public fountain later. You should resign in shame for suggesting this relationship is less than it appears to be. I’m embarrassed for you. You obviously wouldn’t know true love if it jumped up and down on a couch for you.
PoliticoGalNot
Los Angeles
Dear Looney for Clooney:
Not even Margo’s allowed on my couch without wiping her paws off first. And since you live somewhere that clearly isn’t reality, you’ve got a lot to learn about how celebs act when they know reporters aren’t writing articles about them.
Ted
Here’s a link to Sarah’s new modeling pictures for Luxury Las Vegas Magazine:

To: Amazing:
OK – not seeing SL’s Moon in GC’s 7th. I see her Virgo Moon from 1-12 deg. during the 24 hr period, so it could be in his 6th, if she was born early, since his 7th is at 12Virgo (2:58 am his birthtime). Don’t know if that makes any difference.
Not seeing her progressed Moon conjunct his moon/saturn. See her progressed Sun, so I must be doing something wrong.
With that said, could you email me because I would like to take my astrology questions off this board. [email protected]
Salut, all. This is my first and only contribution to this “comments” section. It has been an interesting read. If what I am about to write comes across as preachy, and it might, apologies; I don’t like that in other people’s writing, and especially in my own.
deadc: Good essay, good storytelling; a funny, poignant, interesting and – in ways – thought provoking read. Hope you continue to write, in some form or other, as you have an interesting style and you are talented.
General: (This is going to stray from what I think is the purpose of this Comments section and maybe this is not the appropriate place to write what I am about to. If you only want to read comments re SL, then now is a good time to scroll down to the next entry.)
GC’s personal life is none of my concern. I am more interested in GC’s public life, and disappointed in his endorsement of Nestlé products. After thirty years, there is still a boycott of Nestlé products (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nestl%C3%A9_boycott to learn more) and I guess this fact somehow escaped GC’s attention; maybe he was conveniently blinded by the number of euros on his paycheck. He has chosen to very publicly (in Europe only, it seems) endorse, for money, an ethically very questionable corporation and this, for me, invalidates his status as a “spokesperson” on any subject. Until recently, I kind of admired GC for some of the political/ethical themes that were represented in his film-making. But while in France last summer, I spotted him on large posters and billboards, endorsing Nestlé products (does he endorse Nestlé in the states, can anyone tell me? I don’t know, haven’t lived there for ten years). This left no choice but to dismiss him as yet another phony who is not only out to profit, but hoping to garner public admiration in the process. And I do resent that, as a member of the public. After I saw GC with a steaming, sexy cup of Nespresso on the billboards, I really didn’t want to hear about his (goodwill) visits to Darfur; what a hypocrite. I am an overseas develop worker (and not World Bank level, but refugee camp, no electricity or running water, hot, sweaty, disease and poverty, small village and urban, people level) and have seen little value – except public self-promotion – in celebrities visiting poor countries and expecting an accolade for doing so.
All that fuss about her “modeling career” for two pictures? Sheesh
I love Ted! Even veiled (he’s commented prior during the Fabio thing) it is more than clear she’s for show and/or a paid beard. Either way she seems to have served her purpose.
Any bets if we see her again (with him)
knobby knees; imperious gaze. wtf? all that’s missing is the diamond tiara (because clearly she thinks she’s the queen of something).
This comment on eonline made me laugh out load:
“7.Hiring an escort from Vegas didn’t help him get Best Actor. With this one on his arm he wouldn’t qualify anyway, because he doesn’t act in love. And all his money didn’t manage to buy her style. The fabric that started out life as a bedspread or as some trailer’s curtains was quite fitting as a dress for that h**ker. ”
LOL. Oh. Wow.
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah.
*loud* haha
The pictures of Sarah’s waxed coochie tells a more interesting story. Looking at her exposed vagina reminds of some business person showing the customer what he or she will get before they buy. The girl on the motorcycle is posed like she was told to move out of the way so that we could see Sarah’s baby smooth vagina. That stubble must be itchy growing back. :-)
Sarah spent some time developing herself as a ‘party girl.” George knows that she worked in a bar in a hotel/casino. Doesn’t that same hotel/casino celebrate a hedonistic atmosphere?
Re: her new, legitimate modeling pictures: Can’t cover of the smell of crap with flowered aerosal spray. It only makes the room smell like rose scented crap. Damage control, imo. Or let’s hurry up and put some legitimate pictures out there cause with all of the drama being stirred there are sure to be questions in the legitimate world.
We need some fresh meat in the Sexiest Man Alive category. Try this one– a sexy man in a hot, stable relationship who treats his women like a queen.
As one of the great (if not the greatest) rapper/poet once said: The Underground don’t break for ho s.
I say, girls, until he changes, don’t break for Clooney either. :-)
LSweetie, if you’re out there. That’s for you!
I’ve probably already wrote too much. The saracasm is back. I think it runs in my family. Yep, I’m angry. I’m angry that some people seem to get a pass in this life. Sarah gets a new image cause she’s seen on the arm of a rich, powerful man (and I think her new image is more about his than anything having to do with love and relationship), and for all of Clooney’s talk about supporting freedom of the press, he’s able to dress Sarah up and tell everyone she’s some classy chic. And the press goes for it. That’s the kind of crap that makes me angry. Now, the same girl who doesn’t have a rich powerful man friend and who “made a mistake” tries to get legitimate work and she’s haunted by the “coochie pictures” she took when she was younger.
Double standard or the power of Clooney?: Vanessa Williams sure got it when those naughty pictures of her surfaced. She gave up her Miss America crown. I didn’t see them, but I don’t think she exposed her second set of lips.
I’m calling this whole thing Coochie Gate in honor of Clooney who loves the movie All The President’s Men. :-)
Mark Wahlberg for Goodwill Amabassador!!!
It’s an attempt at a cover up right before your very eyes.

Very long online article about George in the March 2nd edition of “Scotland on Sunday.” It brings nothing new to the forefront since most of it is rehashed info and quotes pulled from other articles… but most interesting was this comment:
—If Hollywood ever got its own Senate seat, Clooney could be a strong candidate to win it, although he is adamant he won’t be drawn into presenting himself as a candidate. “I have no interest in being in politics,” he says. “I like being on the outside. I have done too many dumb things that will come back to haunt me.”—
Well, at least the man knows his limitations!
Apologies if this has been posted before but I have to say this is the most BORING interview I’ve ever seen George give. Shit – Stan was to the left and even he looked bored! LOL!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2Y4GJeDSds
By the way, I didn’t mean our fuss or comments about her modeling career. Just the magazine(s) falling all over themselves to take a 9girl and make her a princess.
I’d say a remake of “My Fair Lady” but he ain’t no Rex Harrison and she SURE AS HELL isn’t Audrey Hepburn. Can’t take make silk out of a sows ear.
OH…and does 2 pictures (3 if you count that other god awful one) make a modeling career?
New Kid: Yep, we’re going to see more of SL (not that it’s possible to see more of her now that we’ve all seen her giblets). “Leatherheads” opens wide on April 4, and there’s going to be an official premier attended by the cast and their famous friends at the end of this month. This isn’t just another Clooney film, either. This is one of GC’s babies – directing, writing, starring in. GC wants his career to move more and more into the field of directing. If a film he directs goes down in flames it’s going to really sting. So he’s going to be out there promoting the hell out of this movie. I doubt very much he wants to be addressing break up rumors while he’s trying to push his film. So regardless of the actual status of the relationship, SL is going to be making appearances, even if it’s just to “keep up appearances”. He’ll probably fly in stylists from all over the world to make sure she doesn’t show up at the premier looking like the Easter Bunny, like she did at the Oscars. I’m sure this time Stan will finally give her some media coaching, too. The Oscars was a “My Fair Lady” experiment and it failed miserably, and failed on a global scale. At the very least GC and Stan are going to want a second chance to try to right this thing around. I don’t think they’ll want the PR on this thing to go out on a low note. They’ll want it to go out on a high note. Then hopefully after that …. she’ll fuck off.
Might fail? It’s already getting luke-warm reviews, the studio pushed the release date twice, once for “more editing” the second time “to avoid holiday competition.” That’s a nice way (so I’m told by writer friends) of saying “this movie sucks so bad we’re trying not to lose mega-bucks on it..”
I predict (feh, if I were any good I’d play the lotto) that ALL of a sudden SL will have career conflicts and that ALL of a sudden GC will be seen around town alone and ALL of a sudden the press will be seeing him at events alone. Oh yeah those aren’t planned, I mean accidentally running into him on the road/red carpet whatever.
ALL of a sudden GC will take a career break due to “exhaustion” of doing so many press (Clayton, which money wise tanked,) Leatherheads (which so far looks like it will tank,) and Section Eight which from what I read on NYTimes? was not and will not be missed due to conflict, projects that weren’t commercial and of course, general exhaustion due to bad press, due to bad choice in “girlfriends.”
My gut feeling (worth about as much as my prediction) is that SL won’t go down easily (ahem, no pun intended.) This one seems like she’ll either write a tell-all, do an anonymous article with the rags and/or suddenly develop am sleazy lawyer that will get her money for her injuries…you know…the broken toe that kept her on two crutches for months?
Hell, when I broke my toe it was taped to the one next to it and I limped for about 1-week then got sick of the tape. After week 2 I didn’t even feel anything other than normal.
You’d think Stan knew how to play the press better. Another question, I wonder if GC went over the edge on this one? Maybe he didn’t keep Stan informed and now Stan is trying to do damage control. I saw him on the Red Carpet with the Stepford Couple, I’d have given anything to know his thoughts as they sashayed down the carpet. Her grinning like an idiot and him listening to the echo in her head.
CAN YOU SMELL THE IRONY????
These days I assume that Clooney isn’t always telling the whole truth. I came to conclude that when Clooney says he doesn’t to do something, but his actions tell a different story, it means that he could be fishing around to see what kind of reaction, maybe out of insecurity, or he’s playing coy. Do I think he wants to run for public office? Yep. He says things about his past possibly affecting a run for office to soften the blow. When you admit to something often enough or say something often enough it softens the impact, or people are numb to it. So he did drugs and banged a legion of women. You say it often enough and with humor it starts to sound sort of quaint. Ha! If Bill Clinton with all of his baggage can be a two-term pres, then Clooney is home free. Clooney was twice voted sexiest man alive. That’s a start.
Nope, all of these things aren’t fact. Am I cynical when it comes to Clooney? Yep. It’s his fault.
Hmm, who is gonna be Coochie Gate’s deep throat?
BTW, I wouldn’t vote for George Clooney for dog catcher.
Hey, Russian Princess! When do you think Coochie Gate will end? And what reason has Stan come up with?
Kelly-Michelle: I know you addressed these questions to Russian Princess but I hope you don’t mind if I chime in with my two cents worth, as well.
How will Coochie Gate end? What reason will Stan come up with?
My answer: I think the seeds of that answer were already sewn in the red carpet interviews at the Oscars. SL said “every now and then I have to run away and escape and hide for a few weeks.” To which GC responded, “Yeah, she goes to Vegas”. She didn’t say a few days, she didn’t say a couple of weeks, she said a few weeks. She’s left for a MONTH at a stretch.
Now something we know about GC is that he often keeps a very low profile for weeks at a time when he’s living and working in LA. Larson does not have to leave GC to get away from the spotlight. GC himself is perfectly able to avoid the media glare himself when he’s in LA so he is well equipped to do that for SL as well. And certainly if you love a man, you want to be with him. You keep a low profile while being with him. Matt Damon’s wife does this and Don Cheadle’s wife does this. Not to mention the fact that Celine, GC’s long-time girlfriend was very private, and kept very much under the radar while living with GC in LA for three years. She avoided the media glare without leaving GC just fine.
So SL’s leaving GC for a month at a time and running away to Vegas signals problems with the relationship, not the media glare. HOWEVER, having Stan say she had to leave to hide from the media spotlight for a month at a time will be a perfect way of spinning the separations, and will be the perfect excuse Stan will give for the demise of the relationship when it happens.
One more thing. On the red carpet, when GC was recounting the Valentine’s Day festivities he kept dismissing it as spending time with SL’s friends. But then he added something very sad. In reference to her friends, he said, “I wish I could buy a couple of them.” Now I don’t think he meant this in a sleazy way, as in I wish I could buy them for sex. I think it was something far sadder. SL just isn’t happy spending too much time with George. They are NEVER seen alone together having dinner (like he has been will all his other girlfriends). They are always seen with GC’s friends. Often it’s SL sitting beside her grey-haired boyfriend with one or two of his grey-haired friends, all twice her age. She has nothing to talk to them about. She’s happier, not surprisingly, with people her own age and life experience — her own friends. I think GC said he wished he could “buy a couple of her friends” so she could have some companionship in LA and wouldn’t have to leave for Vegas for so long. I don’t think SL has anything to talk to GC about or his friends and she’s unhappy. But they have to spend time together to prepare for these public appearances and GC wishes he could bring her friends to LA because she’s probably miserable and complaining and bored when she has to be there.
Sorry that was so long-winded. Ultimately, I think the real reason for the eventual demise of the relationship will be the age difference and their life experiences and interests are too different. But I think the reason that Stan will be give is that the media spotlight and invasion of SL’s privacy made the relationship too difficult to sustain.
@Russian Princess the deep throat will be SL herself or a “friend.” She is not going to fade away easily.
@Kelly – I doubt it will officially end, I think she’ll become the same as the porn star (can’t remember her name) that was a booty call. Remember when she said they used to go out and no one knew it? They just went out and had dinner etc. It CAN be done. If he wants it to be done. If she wants it to be done.
@Shadow you give SL too much credit for being bored, she’s making connections to help in her “career.” Matt Damon’s wife went from waitress to model to interior decorator, it’s common for the gf/wife to get a promotion. If SL oozes away without a little black book then she’s not worthy of her past.
GC wants to buy her friends? To keep SL company? That’s a good laugh – she’s not lonely she goes home for a month at a time. Yes there is an age difference but also a confidence difference, for good or bad SL has a goal. GC has no confidence in his dating life or he wouldn’t have said he didn’t score with girls unless he drank, show me one picture with them that doesn’t involve drinking and I’ll stand corrected.
I also still think if the accident had not occurred SL would have faded away long long ago. Since the publicity that she was hurt he would have seemed the cad to walk away and the I love you slipped out. It sounded more like a comforting statement than one of deep emotion. His guilt outweighs his or Stan’s better judgement.
She’ll fade away but don’t be surprised if she shows up again and again, possibly on the arm of another a-lister. She’s had a taste of the “good life” she won’t give that up without a fight.
“You’d think Stan knew how to play the press better. Another question, I wonder if GC went over the edge on this one? Maybe he didn’t keep Stan informed and now Stan is trying to do damage control. I saw him on the Red Carpet with the Stepford Couple, I’d have given anything to know his thoughts as they sashayed down the carpet. Her grinning like an idiot and him listening to the echo in her head.”
New Kid: I’m definitely with you on that one. I’ve had that suspicion all along to be honest. I think George got cocky and complacent about his own abilities to manipulate the media. Brad Pitt has even boasted about GC’s legendary ability to screw with the press. I think GC got a little full of himself and his own talents in managing his media image. Mix in a mid-life crisis, pills and booze and his judgement went way off base. I think he forged ahead with the PR on this thing and Stan has been running around frantically trying to put out the fires. I’ll bet some of the worst choices that were made came out of GC’s booze addled brain, with him thinking it was going to go off brilliantly and there was nothing he couldn’t wise crack his way out of if it turned turtle on him.
GC just recently he gave an interview where he said all Tom Cruise needed to do was make jokes about his bad PR and everything would be fine. Well that shows a fundamental misunderstanding of just how bad PR can get. No amount of jokes are going to restore Cruise to his former status with the public. And if GC actually thinks that, then it explains a lot of his own reckless PR choices, lately.
Russian Princess: Re: “Hmm, who is gonna be Coochie Gate’s deep throat?”
Wow the imagery on that is something, isn’t it? I know you meant the question facetiously, but I’m going to answer it anyway. The “deep throat” on that item is easy – conservative Republicans. I’m surprised it hasn’t happened already.
The reason the entertainment media are not releasing SL’s real background (and the pictures to prove it) is because they want and need access to GC. If you want consistent access to him, and interviews with him, there are certain guarantees he’s going to need in return. If you piss off GC by going too far off the story they’re selling, or worse if you piss off his publicist, you not only lose access to GC, you’ll lose access to very high profile client on Stan’s roster. This is very well known in the industry.
But all that goes to hell once you leave Hollywoodland and the more left-leaning mainsteam media (who LOVE Clooney). CNN did a piece on GC this morning that basically beatified GC for his Darfur work.
But as Clooney starts to veer away from being a director and a movie star, and starts to develop more political interests (Obama, UN geopolitics), he starts dealing with a very different press pool. He starts to piss people off that don’t give a rat’s ass whether they get to interview him or not (or Stan’s other clients for that matter). There’s a reason GC is keeping his support of Obama much more low profile than the other celebrities. GC has juicy personal skeletons in his closet, the kind conservative politics love, the kind that’s all about sex – porn stars, strippers, Playboy bunnies, crotch flashers. They would love to smear Clooney with that, and his liberal political allies both domestically and at the UN in the process. SL wasn’t at the UN ceremony for damn good reason. Did you hear some of the questions he was being asked at that news conference? They were taking him to task on the issues. This wasn’t Jann Carl asking him if it was fun being the sexiest man alive. They were grilling him on Peacekeeping matters happening all over the world, and GC had to admit his failings and his ignorance right there in front of them. And this wasn’t even the conservative media.
The more political GC’s life gets, the more likely SL’s crotch shots are going to hit the mainstream press. The conservative media already hate GC. They hate him. And I’m not talking about fringe right-wing wack-jobs that no one listens to. I’m talking about the conservative mainstream – the conservative newspapers, journals, and news networks. Every time they criticize and lambaste GC, the Hollywood golden boy, their ratings go UP. Criticizing GC is red meat for their audience. I’m honestly surprised it hasn’t happened already. Especially because it’s a story about sex and it’s a story about Hollywood hypocrisy. I’m surprised no one has forwarded the crotch shot links and the bum-biting links to the mainstream conservative outlets. I’d bet FOX news would love to run with that stuff.
And no, it’s not something I’m going to do. I’m just surprised it hasn’t happened, that’s all, because they’ve successfully exposed GC’s hypocrisies in the past. When the conservative mainstream media started to criticize GC for speaking out on global warming all the while flying around on private jets everywhere, he actually admitted they had him dead to rights, and he admitted to changing his public behavior on that issue as a result. It seems to me they would be the ones most likely to expose his lies and misrepresentation with regard to his PR on his women and would be the most able to get him to change his public behavior on that issue as well. Not his private behavior with women, he obviously loves a certain type of gal, but his public misrepresentation of himself and his girls, the press gag orders from “the son of a newsman” who criticizes the right-wing for suppressing freedom of speech and freedom of the press, and the bold-face lying he’s been doing about himself and his women.
She’s still in LA. She lives out of his guesthouse and comes and goes with his car as she pleases, often times when he is not even home. She’s only in LA on “assignment” and yes it could be said she flees to her friends out of boredom because her only purpose is to pretend she’s in a relationship with him. Behind closed doors there is zero reason for either one of them to be pretending so they don’t even spend time together alone. Hence, his little b-ball games and work and other dealings with friends and coworkers while she goes out to dilly dally on her own, but never actually being seen or followed because, naturally, no paps are being tipped off on her whereabouts and even if they were, they wouldn’t care. Even the entertainment shows would report on his Armani tux but none of them spoke of her dress because they all know she’s a paid “date” and they don’t intend on giving it any attention. They can’t stand her but know that they have to pretend just like everyone else does while he’s at his premiers not only to be in his good graces but also because the studio has put the presses on him to have the arm candy to begin with. She is none other than paid arm candy and that is 100% it. He drops hints and clues in all his recent interviews that she’s only there on paid appearance and that is because he cannot stand her. This was something foisted upon him for the sake of promotion and let’s just say that it’s only because of the suits he must kowtow to please that he’s doing this. He doesn’t really want to be doing this. The only thing he had a say in was WHO he’d be dragging around for the mission and he chose her. She is just as much bound to the charade as he is and neither one of them is getting along anymore and she really hates Stan. Let’s just say that her boss is the one who’s getting the barking orders from Stan. This is very much hurting his career and if he had any sense about it all, he do as they do in the movie “Network” and open up his window, so to speak, and yell, “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore.” Unfortunately he’s only caving in because of studio pressures and Stan’s not about to let it suddenly disappear because GC’s pissed about it all. Doesn’t work that way. So have a little sympathy for GC because he hates it just as much as we do. Don’t ask me how I know, either.
Definitely a PR stunt, but how it will end is a little unknown. Perhaps he will meet someone he truly starts to fall in love with and SL will just vanish. Maybe he’ll fall in love with someone for real and try to keep it hush hush until the media circus has run it’s course of until his true love tells him she is not going to live under the facade anymore and that he’s gotta lose the cheap puppet made to distract attention away from what’s really brewing. She will be the one to overthrow the power struggle here and it will be a good thing because that’s exactly what he needs … an equal woman who’s in his corner who won’t let his publicity driven star life supersede their personal life. SL definitely has a deadline in her contract – so fans, don’t worry- , but something makes me “think” it’s being renewed by the week dependent upon what happens on the outside. Consider that just right before V-day, no one even knew if there would be an Oscars ceremony on account of the strike. She was only “brought back” out of necessity and was a little miffed because her boss made her do it. That’s why she acts and talks like she doesn’t want to be there on the red carpet because it is true … she didn’t want to be there. In fact, it could be truly said that she wants out of this contractual obligation but she’s not an independent contractor in this case. Remember, she’s employed by the N9NE Group and unless she doesn’t want to have a job to come back to, she must do what they tell her to do and she knows it. It also didn’t look good for him when she did go back to work and was seen with other men (johns). They knew it would blow his cover and she thought her duties were done, but they weren’t. She knew all this would leave her at his publicity’s beck and call before she got into it, but she didn’t know how much it was going to be taking a toll on her personal life and she didn’t even for the least expect the amount of gum-flapping and name calling that was going to take place when everyone found out the real truth. She does read the internet, as do her friends and let’s just say she’d much rather her job duties be kept secret. She’s not liking the fact that she will never be able to outlive her notoriety attached to him as being his escort that he yanked around to premieres for a good half year. She’s actually mad that she ever agreed to it all and wants to get back to work doing what she was doing before all this. She is very disgruntled and unhappy and having cocktails on Oscar night was the only thing she was looking forward to. It wasn’t exactly a party with all her friends. It was a party with all HIS friends. After all, she doesn’t have to go to this length in the public on a “regular” night at work, but then, she is the one who so desperately wanted to have a little fame from it all. No one was ever supposed to leak the N9NE video or the photos. They all thought this would work out and that the truth could be “adjusted” without a hitch. They thought wrong and now GC is trying his earnest to pass it all off as if it weren’t a paid gig for fear of having a soiled reputation from it. And he isn’t having an easy time of it and neither is she since she can’t even really be seen out and about with him or Stan. Neither one of them trusts her and fears that she will somehow blow his cover if she goes out and has a little fun on her own – like meeting other men (and women). Therefore the ONLY photos you will see of her is when she is dolled up for a red carpet affair. The “modeling” photos and representation were created after it started to leak out about her escort job. They were taken all in the same day(s) back-to-back so that no one would question that if she were truly a model, how come we’ve never seen her photos? How come we’ve never seen any of her modeling work, if she were indeed a true model? So suddenly now she’s on the cover of some cheesy Vegas mag that one of her friends works for. Made to look like she is actually a working model.
The saddest part about it all is that fact that anyone involved felt the need to go to this extreme of a direction just to get a little more press. No one ever said that studio pressure were fair. That’s why people like Nicole botox the living hell out of themselves because just as soon as the studios start telling a star like her that she can no longer play leading females unless she “does” something about it, then of course actors like her (and GC) start thinking in terms of extremes …. ie: they don’t want to lose their jobs. Believe that the pressures are REAL when the ones who are doing it are the ones signing their paychecks.
But don’t by any means feel sad for SL. Anyone who would be willing trade their dignity and self-worth and namesake in exchange for money and very brief renown most likely had no respect for their life or namesake beforehand anyway.
She thought she was trading up. He thought he was buying time.
Oh yeah, jeesh. Stupid me. I “forgot” the two most important words above all regarding SL and GC:
SARAH TALLEY.
Yes yes yes.
Now’s it all fitting together. Hint, hint.
;)
You see, because sometimes a “truth” must be created to cover for another truth. A truth studio suits DIDN’T want you to see.

Kinda makes Sarah Larson look like an angel, huh?
Sarah replaces Sarah. HOWWWWWWWWWWWW convenient.
“Mystery” solved.
cornish game hen, are you saying that this is all about Sarah Talley, the lapdancer who sold her story about her fling with George about a year ago to some tabloid? It can’t all be about this one girl. George has dated these kinds of women before (hello, remember Krista LOL). It can’t all be about this one woman.
And since the jig is up and everyone knows that this is just a pr stunt, when do you think this will all end?
Thanks!
Casey
“and that he’s gotta lose the cheap puppet made to distract attention away from what’s really brewing…”
So, what’s really going on with GC? Is it a health issue? Has he lost too much money or something? Gambling debts? What is it that has caused this p.r. image overhaul known as Coochie Gate? You sound like someone who knows.
“…She will be the one to overthrow the power struggle here and it will be a good thing because that’s exactly what he needs … an equal woman who’s in his corner who won’t let his publicity driven star life supersede their personal life.”
I can’t be sure if this is what GC truly wants, but his fans would LOVE to see this.
As to the rest of Cornish Game Hen’s post: WOW.
First of all, just in case anyone misunderstands my previous post – I’m a liberal democrat, just for the record. I just found it strange that the conservative media, or the Drudge Report, or someone who doesn’t give a shit about access to GC hasn’t outed the SL links into the mainstream. GC gets awfully sanctimonious and preachy and you would think someone would have loved to burst his bubble by now and catch him lying to the press.
Second: If SL was hired to be professional arm candy than boy did she blow the most important arm candy event of the year. No matter how many premiers that she does now a lot of the public are only going to remember that she blew the Oscars. More people watch the Academy Awards than press for movie premiers. And it was both her lousy conduct and her lousy dress that she’ll be remembered for. SL made so many “Worst Dressed” lists for her Oscar dress that IMDb has an entire thread listing them all! These are a couple of my personal favorites:
“Worst Haute Couture Award
Sarah Larson was way out of her league in this Valentino Spring 2008 Couture strapless gown. Girlfriend did not own it. She just hobbled alongside George Clooney, smiling like a Miss World contestant.”
“Sarah’s hair is also terrible. It is a little lighter in colour than usual, but she could have put it up or done something different.”
http://www.redcarpetfashionawards.blogspot.com/2008/02/oscars-2008-worst-dressed.html
“Those who swung and missed? Diablo Cody, Cameron Diaz and Renee Zellweger. And Lord have mercy on Sarah “I’m Dating George Clooney” Lawson: Her ugly-ass table-cloth dress was the worst of the worst in my book. You can take the girl out of Fear Factor, but you can’t take the Fear Factor out of the girl.”

Then there was the dlisted review. Their piece was titled “Sarah Larson is Still Around?!”
LOL!
Anyway, they described SL as GC’s “robot” because of her stiff and awkward performance on the red carpet.

Even better are the comments people left after the dlisted article. You have to go read them. There’s tons of them and they’re hysterical!
One of my favs:

“Am I the only one that doesn’t believe this “relationship”??? She looks faker than Christina Aguilera’s boobs!!!!!”
Even more interesting though, was an IMDb poster spotted this comment:
Submitted by malibuj on February 25, 2008 – 9:11pm.
“George can date whoever he wants. However, I met her shortly before she started dating him. She is very sexy but not a nice person. She was very nasty to us. She also was very into becoming a celebrity at all costs. She probably does not say that much because she is not smart. Shows that George is not so great if he is dating her. For a man who can have any woman, he sure picked a bitchy one.”
I wonder how much Sarah (or her boss) sold herself for. Is she providing $200,000 worth of escorting services? Is this a $1 million contract? Is Coochie Gate a fair step up from Fear Factor? Any thoughts?
deadc:
Thanks for respecting my request not to include my comments. It was the questioning of motivation in adopting a baby that I was sorry to have written. The rest stands, though.
And one last thing. With this Comments section, you surely have provided a (curious but interesting) creative outlet for people, as you mentioned at some point. Just shows how needy we humans are in that respect. Well done. You are a risk taker with sensitivity; good combination for a writer.
Hope you have a good life, with fewer blood and vomit covered t-shirts, and lots more eloquent, written expression. I sense that is already happening.
@ cornish game hen
I am in agreeance with you, that this is a set up by the studio. I said this from the beginning and still stick by it. Apparently the idiot running this charade does not know the participants well. Although I don’t think it is to cover up for Sarah Talley, that story came out last spring, with little to no fanfare.
1. Once those photos of Sarah came out George would, still dated her, but cut public appearances with her to zero. He is a family man and would never do anything to embarass his parents, this is the main reason Krista Allen was kept under wraps. They are both very active and prominent members of their community. George could care less about what we thought of his dates, but he knows the people he keep company with eventually come back to his parents.
2. There were signs they were unhappy with each other back in December at the Laureate ceremony. He did not go out with her when she went on a tour of city. His tooth was hurting , the excuse, but he able to schmooze with the mayor and store owners the next day?
3. The People article on the Oscars, why were the named the King and Queen? They aren’t married, George didn’t win, nor was he a presenter. They also wasted a page showing the “happy” couple well George anyway, schmoozing with other celebs. Poor Sarah looked miserable in all of the shots, except one. Also her outfit looked put together at the last minute. No jewlery , simple hair style.
4. People like to attack her, but she hasn’t done anything that any other woman wouldn’t have done.( well the crotch shots I wouldn’t have done, nor the escorting) If you are going to pay me, to hang out with George Clooney , travel the world and wear expensive dresses ( although I would have picked better dresses), I would do it in a heartbeat. If that makes me low, then so be it.
5. Also the Valentine’s Day mess, no one believed that story and I still don’t. I am trying to find some info on his parents. I know they were having an affair, celebrating their 20 favorite love songs that day. I saw a recent picture and George was in it, but March 03,2008 People states they ( GC and SL) didn’t celebrate Valentine’s Day until the 15th, but the photo and story was released that day, so how did the photo and story come out early that afternoon, when they didn’t go out until that evening.
Hey Shelly and Mafaldo…thanks for clearing that up!! lol I saw her modeling ??? photos, what is with the freaking ugly could only be used to guide lost ships home from sea dresses they keep putting her in? Holy Crap…had flash backs from when my mom use to dress us during her psychedelic era !! cornish game hen…that was disturbing to view….is she george’s ????, then why even bother to drag hoEwannabe about…was it to soften the blow for hardcore girl? Well, Russian Princess, CoochieGate is getting really interesting. As far as holding down their position (stan and george) you know it is happening because other sites have pretty much stopped conversations on this not that I think it’s what the general public wants…mmmm I wonder if Sarah checks this daily!!! lmfao
cornish — sl and gc have often been seen dining together alone…and sarah talley’s story is an old one. there were never any photos to substantiate talley’s claims of the affair. think about it. she would have ample motivation to try to get a career boost by claiming to have had one. the only photo i’ve seen of sarah talley and george appears to be a fan photo that was taken in a club. it’s a head shot. there was only one. all the rest is just a ‘story’ coming from a woman who thinks nothing of giving us a full view of her jewels online.
article appeared today with a quote from SL’s old boyfriend, Tommy, saying SL could be high maintenance. looks like three comments were posted, but one was removed (only two comments are there now, or were at the time i looked at this):

Cornish Game Hen makes a lot of sense. How sad. I’ve lived in Tinseltown for a lot of years and met a lot of celebrities, and worked behind the scenes, and I’ve just never understood why someone’s personal life ever had anything to do with acting or show business, or for that matter, my daily work routine. Its just not something I would ever think would be work-related no matter what industry I worked in. I read Teen Beat like every other girl my age growing up, but I never spent hours wondering who Patrick Swayze was squiring around town. 10 days later I’m still reading this blog, so maybe I was missing something this whole time. Heh.
You know, George could just tell the press that this whole thing was a prank, the biggest prank he’s ever pulled, designed to throw off his fellow celebrities that bet him $100,000 that he’d be married or a father. He would then thank Sarah publicly for “being a good sport” and “going along with the joke”, and then go have a beer with his buddies and ride some hog. Sounds like this would be quickly blown over. After all, he already set the stage by telling Tom Cruise it was OK to make fun of himself jumping all over the sofa over Katie Holmes.
I’m not one to preach but maybe George would find companionship easier if he dated some less attractive but highly educated women who were already secure in their own personal images and lifestyles and who had the backbone mentioned by Cornish Game Hen? There are very few people who are going to be strong enough to stand up to George’s managers and other show biz folks if they are starstruck. All I can say is we’re out here waiting for good men like George who need us to find us, but we’re not on magazine covers or walking red carpets. We’re out in the real world.
Come on…you swim in a big delirium.
Where is cornish game hen? Come back and fill in more please! LOL
You said that “He drops hints and clues in all his recent interviews that she’s only there on paid appearance and that is because he cannot stand her.” Why can’t he stand her? If he is the one who chose her, what happened to make him dislike her so much? It is evident in their pics that he doesn’t like, but why?
Up until their trip to Rome, she had the biggest smirk I’ve ever seen. Then, something happened and the smirk was toned down again. I always assumed that it’s because, like all her predecessors, she thought she would get the brass ring until he (or Stan) made it clear to her that she wouldn’t, and that’s when she wanted it out. Still, it’s hard to imagine a woman who loves the camera so much would not want to do this anymore.
