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

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.

Since only I can access the emails of the comments, I’d like to say that Spirit and Amazing seem to be from different accounts, regardless of the fact that both of their screen names sound like they came from Flavor of Love.
My instinct told me it was Amazing. I could be wrong. Lots of people have multiple email accounts though. If Spirit actually IS another person, my apologies.
Have you spent any time on these celebrity websites? Do you have any idea just exactly who it is we are worshipping? Half are hip-hop thugs, the others are pervs, or ho’s, or drug addicts. I am sure there are some nice ones in the mix, but the sleaze factor in the entertainment industry is high, so what are the odds you’re going to be looking at anyone ‘nice’? Even (especially?) Disney seems to be really good at churning out promiscuous fodder (Vanessa Hudgens’ nude pics) — the list goes on. Because the characters in this industry are so over the top, you can use it for a source of amusement when you want a break from ‘real life’, but to actually look UP to these people is both scary and truly sick. And they look at that camera and smile sweetly and LIE and you believe that is who they are? Remember Jimmy Swaggart? Jim Bakker? And these were men who claimed to be God’s messengers! These little fraudsters were ‘believed in’ by millions. What about Paris Hilton on Larry King Live saying she had never done hard drugs. Within a nanosecond, videos surfaced of none other than PH sucking on a hash pipe (like an old pro) at a cafe in Amsterdam. Give me a break. SL’s pics showed her value and her lifestyle pre-George, and I don’t think she turned into a sweet All American girl overnight. She is what she is. What have we come to when a girl known for nothing but sleeping with someone famous suddenly becomes the talk of the Internet? The last photo I saw showed clearly that her teeth (and there seem to be a lot of them) are all jammed together on one side and crooked, in another photo her legs did not look long and great at all…her knees looked positively knobby, and the lower leg looked short, etc. I have no idea who much airbrushing is going on, but I take nothing at face value. I look at ALL celeb photos with a skeptical eye. Stunning to describe this girl is a huge overstatement, just like everything else flying around about this ‘relationship’, or couple, if that is what they are. Give me a break.
I would like to know why it is that men when they hit their 40’s seek out younger girls. As an older woman I consider it an insult. I am fortunate enough to have a husband (31 years now) tells me I look better now than in my 30’s. And as far as sex and intelligent conversation…well many older women have more experience and much more to talk about. I would love to meet GC, why actually I don’t know….as it has been stated he is not the good looking man he was just a short time ago. Maybe it’s to show him a woman doesn’t have to be in her 20’s to be exciting. Maybe things aren’t as firm as they used to be…but neither is GC’s. To me it is not what she did before she started dating GC it’s just that she is young enough to be his daughter. I believe that I am as good as anyone else, and yes I have a side job modeling lingerie, so I would not like people to judge me on that aspect of my life. I have after all gone to college and have a 4.0 GPA. If I could get a job serving drinks and pull in 6 figures a year I would do it in a heartbeat, it would be alot less stressfull.
I have guys in their 20’s and 30’s flirt with me all the time and even if I were single NO WAY would I be intimate with someone close to my son’s age. Want to see what someone will look like when they get older, take a look at their parents. Looking at GC’s father, GC better get the young ones while he still can.
As most of you ladies would agree there are ALOT of sexier men out there than GC. So why do so many ladies..and I have been guilty of this..want him?
As a woman I would like to apologize to you men who are just as good as, if not better than GC, for wanting him. As for many of us women the reason we don’t like SL is because she is not us and we know that GC could have made a better more mature choice than her.
Thank you deadc for allowing us to voice our comments and if I have offended anyone I would like to apologize.
It’s all about perception. Perception is everything to this business because the studio’s and the agencies representing these people want us common folk to believe what they’re putting out and saying. They want us to believe that they are one way when really they may be another. GC has always been this actor/”real guy” that SEEMS to be dignified, distinguished, intelligent and very aware about what’s going on in the world. Nobody in the business (besides Donald Trump and David O. Russell) has anything bad to say about him. I always have found that odd. He seems to have a great group of friends but I think the thing that really gets the ex-fans/still fans somewhat, in an uproar is the company he keeps for girlfriends. If people judge him by the company he keeps well then he doesn’t seem to be carrying himself very well. Ex-fans/still fans somewhat expect someone that carries himself the way he does to fall for a more distinguished, dignified women that just about mirrors his image. Instead, all everybody sees is him hanging around women 10 or 20 years younger then him that haven’t really accomplished much but waitressing, soft-core porn and tv presenting. But if that’s the company he likes to keep then maybe we had the wrong perception of GC from the get go. Maybe the mistake there was that we believed for a moment what he was putting out, but now the time has come to open some eyes and not believe everything.
I’m not the same person as Anon (but cheers for the insults) and I grew up in Thatcher’s Britain so I’m way too cynical to be a hippy. I don’t give two figs about the personal lives of thingy and thingy but it amuses me to watch people turn over every minute detail of the tabloid fodder, count up the number of shags Clooney’s had and pour over every facet of his and her body language, only to then claim disinterest and/or disgust. I never attached a value judgment to “shadows”, these people are the same as us, it’s merely our interest in them that elevates them to some weird status in the public imagination, if we didn’t write, read, bitch or care about them, papers wouldn’t bother with them and the spotlight would go off, that was my point. Even Dead C’s blog garners attention for these people “no news is bad news”. If you think Clooney’s an old tart and she’s a bit of a boiler that’s up to you, but know that the more interest you take in them, the more in your face they will be – we at least have to take some responsibility for the media monster we create. I’ve seen Michael Clayton and it’s a really good film, I didn’t sit there thinking about Mr Clooney’s love life, I wasn’t in the mood, it’s a pretty serious film about a pretty fucked up world. So he likes good looking young girls who probably can’t match his intellect and he most likely doesn’t want to get married and have kids, so what? He sounds like my neighbour. Who Clooney beds doesn’t reflect badly on the rest of womankind. As for writing off a woman because she has crooked teeth, come on people.. I’m from England, land of the crooked teeth people, maybe you want to write us all off? It is cruel to attack someone’s looks simply because they don’t match up to your ideal, some people here have torn women apart for the way they look and then accused me of living in a glass house and throwing stones. Why not post your CV and a picture of yourself up so we can all see how straight your teeth, thick your hair and impressive your academic background is, you’d rather not? Damn right, neither would I. Maybe she isn’t a very nice person, time will tell if they’re compatible or not. Maybe you all hate me because I don’t hate famous people as much as you do. I personally think there are worse people in positions of power than George Clooney, why not have a go at them? Let’s start on the big boys, the ones who do think they’re better than us, the ones who make decisions every day that hurt and destroy people just like us; I’ll tell you who makes me angry, Blair, Bush, Bin Laden, Mugabe, if caring about that stuff makes me a drippy hippy then you’ve lost the plot. If you want to mull over the crumbs of some movie star’s affair with a girl this guy once knew then that’s up to you. Cogent debate’s a great thing but I’ve yet to witness it on this site.
Actually, I take that back about cogent debate, there is some on here and I think Dead C set up an interesting scenario for a debate in the first place although his motivation for doing so still seems a little ambiguous to me. Despite that, on some level most people just seem to want to know if this girl is worthy of the attentions of a film star but at the same time argue that we are all the same????? We’re like a big bunch of Mother-in-Laws… analysing her every move, wanting her to screw up. And as for Donald Trump criticizing the way other people look…. come on, that had me on the floor laughing…. this has been great fun, thanks I’m feeling a lot better now.
Hey guys…
Did you miss this? Sounds LIke Sarah is a real bitch doesn’t it?
“Sarah Larson’s ex-boyfriend has spoken out about her relationship with Hollywood heartthrob George Clooney, and has warned the Oceans Thirteen star to “treat her right.”
Tommy McKaughan – who claims to be the waitresses first love – sat down with The Sun and told the world a little bit more about the girl being dubbed ‘Clooney’s current squeeze.’
”Sarah believes everyone has a soulmate” claims the musician “I think she would make a great soulmate for George. She was a hippie chick who was the rebel of her family.
”If George truly wants to settle down and have children, Sarah would make an excellent mum. During high school she had a part-time job at a local day-care centre rocking babies to sleep.”
Larson – who began dating Clooney after they met at a Vegas club where she works as a nightclub hostess – have grown close since they were involved in a bike accident last weekend.
Since the accident – which left the leggy beauty and her ageing beau with minor injuries – the pair have been spotted looking cosy at numerous events which include Clooney’s New York premiere of his new film Michael Clayton.
McKaughan added: “If I could say one thing to George, it would be ‘No one knows better than me, what a wonderful woman Sarah is, so treat her right.”
Just wanted to drop by and see how the mud slinging was going…have a nice day!
Amazing–
you might want to take your foot out of your mouth. The problem here is that you are way too confident in your assumptions. That article was actually posted in Star Magazine in which they stole the photograph from this article so they must be the same company, because I saw it on SUN as well.
We all three worked at that Daycare and I snorted Ritalin in the parking lot and Tommy drew pentagrams on childrens paper plate masks.
Did you read my article because I already loosely address their relationship. You need to realize that the positive press is even more jaded and innacurate than the negetive. They are both tabloids and that’s where you are becoming confused. They are both trash.
I personally know the motivations behind his interview (did you realize he’s in a band????) as well as a great deal more about aspects in both of their lives, but its irrelevant I suppose. I’m not going to go there with a lot of it, but I just wanted to let you know that you shouldn’t be so proud of yourself. This article has been mentioned and, in fact, I knew when we was originally contacted to do it. I know more about this shit than you do and it’s simply hype without basis.
People Magazine emailed me yesterday too. Who gives a shit?
Dead Head…”snorted retilin in the parking lot while Tommy drew pentagrams…,” what devil worship? Thanks, this certainly explains a great deal….
It also speaks volumns for why Sarah dumped Tommy and moved on.
Somehow I bet this drugged out wacko world fits the entire little “click” of down trodden groupies that checks in to Sarah-bash daily.
I think all of you “clickies” are a few brain cells shy of a full synapse which is why you think for each other and worry about how much hair Sarah has.
No wonder your comprehension skills are so absurdly missing. I love how the neggies misinterepret what I write….Good luck..you will need it.
I don’t know about you, but if I am going to suck up to some celebrity, they damn well better be what they are supposed to be, which is drop dead gorgeous, loaded, and oversexed. Without that, what’s the point of knocking my knees together, raising my hands above my head, and performing these deep, scraping, bow downs of obeisance? The ENTIRE point of having celebrities is to remind me that I am unworthy and pathetic and lead a tiny little life, but that maybe, just maybe, I too could one day have what they have. Celebrities have a dirty job, but somebody’s got to do it. We LIVE VICARIOUSLY through them. So don’t tell me that celebrities are ‘just like all of us’. That takes the fun out of it. As to Sarah Larson, in my judgment, people are angry because she is not a celebrity, but is behaving as one. Or being treated like one by our dumb ass paparazzi.
Does she have a PR machine too now? Is it you, with your cold robot vagina?
I had a feeling that you were one of those bible thumpers that worship cash and fame. A sitting contradiction. Yeah, I know it’s supposed to be “walking” but I doubt you ever get off your computer chair. I bet you still have a subscription to Tiger Beat. I figured if I posted something like that towards you, that you would damn me to hellfire. You did seem like “spiritually superior” type as well.
Amazing – whatever happened to that compassion you were dishing out a few posts above, especially when discussing that person on meth…. LOL
Amazing(ly) Out of It — I’ve never inhaled or shot myself up or snorted anything. I have two University degrees. In my former life, I was a newspaper reporter for a major metropolitan daily. These days, I make more than 100 grand a year doing what I want. I live well and enjoy life. And I surf the Internet to check in on the Zeitgeist. I can’t stand fuck-all-know-it-alls such as yourself. The Internet brings out worms, and you are one of them. Dead C has more honesty, conviction and integrity than you have in your little finger, or ever will have. He told a story that was real, and didn’t sell out. And you know what? I wouldn’t blame him if he did. He also created a space where you could spout off all manner of nonsense and show everyone how you have managed to get by so far on half a brain. None of us could say any of this if we lived in Burma, China, or any number of other countries where “free speech” is just a phrase, not a political concept codified and put into action. GC does not need you to be his savior from on high; he’s doing just fine without you. SL is a pole dancer from Vegas. And you can’t change that. Deal.
Amazing:
Your positive thinking and belief in the good of all people has changed my life.
When you speak of levels and look at higher mind vs lower mob mentality, I realize I am just a crab trying to crawl my way out of the barrel.
I understand now that the higher mind is able to see objectively and refrain from defeatist judgements. It creates beauty, inspirational writings, designs new ideas and faces challenges head on. I too, can one day quit my job, leave my career behind and move to Vegas, where I can take my clothes off for money. Your life and belief in the greatness in all people has shown me that someday I can find a daddy figure to dress me in Armani and diamonds too. I am worth it! I feel the change already as I grow and experience life vicariously through Sarah Larson.
I want to thank you. You are a believer in the power of good. You know what happens when people believe in each other. You know what can be built when people work together and don’t listen to the nay sayers. You’ve done some really great things with groups of people who wanted to build something great for future generations and have had to wade through the negative power trippers who wanted to stop your projects either because they weren’t clever enough to dream them up.
I finally have a reason to pull my down trodden self up by the boot straps, get off crack-cocaine and keep living.
LOL!!!!!! OMG!!! WTF!!! Amazing you need to change your name to Ridiculous. And as for having a go at bad mouthing the people of power of instead of GC and other famous people, well there’s a time, a place and a different website for that. Don’t assume nobody on this blog is out of touch with the rest of the world or unintelligent enough to go to those websites and voice opinions because we are, well some of us are, anyway. But right here at this website we all, and that includes everybody who wants to bash the people hating on GC and SL, like to take part in a little frivolous celebrity bashing, old man younger woman, go-go dancing waitress who thinks she’s a star, fun.
Sarah (Not Larson), I am laughing my head off. Thanks. I needed that.
Just returned from seeing Michael Clayton. Worth sitting through just to get to that last satisfying scene. GC looked great, and larger than life, as a movie star should look (regardless of his real height, probably somewhere between 5’9″ and 5’10”). I probably would not have gone to see it but for the guilt about some of the snarky things I’ve said about his dating patterns on this board. Which has been so much fun I felt obligated to see it, in the end. He (his character, that is) showed a lot of vulnerability in this movie. I actually think he does in real life too … at least in some of the interviews I’ve seen. More than say, Tom ‘the alien’ Cruise, who acts like a wind-up toy.
Back to MC…oddly, SL was not in one single scene. Not one. Whuh? And I thought she was a movie star too. Oh well!
OK cultural differences here… I have to ask, what the hell is a neggie?!
I remember reading on Clooneystudio a comment in the SL photo section from someone named Blunt who said they knew/know GC personally and apparently his “real love” is already “taken” and has been for some time, which this person thinks is the reason why he dates the women that he does. The comments were all deleted because there was a lot of negativity towards SL, so I can’t remember the exact words.
Amazing.. a Pentagram is by no means devil worshiping. It is part of the Wican religion. It represents Spirit, Water, Air, Earth and Fire. The devil fears the Pentagram. The Wican way of life is quickily becoming a way of life for many people.
LMAO Sarah (not Larson) @ 6:43:49.
Very well done. ;)
I check in about once a day to see this page still going. Amazing. Nothing really for me to post all these days, just being amused by the “debate” here.
In the end, I guess I just wanted to thank you, DeadC, for posting the article and photos. It’s nice to get a story straight from the horse’s mouth as they say… and the fact that you did it here instead of getting paid for it seems to indicate that it’s fairly genuine.
It’s also turning into a bit of an internet phenomenon in a way. I have never run across something like this on the internet in my life… a celebrity’s new bed warmer having the truth told about her by someone who used to be close, and on a blog rather than in a magazine. And, oh, the vitriol. Last time I saw this much vitriol was when Krista “Crotch Shot” Allen ended up celebrating his Oscar with him. Even then, it wasn’t this bad.
Tangent. Anyway, thanks for publishing this on your site.
but she will appear on the next cover of people magazine: http://img86.imageshack.us/my.php?image=people29oct07uk0.jpg
wonder if the article will mention she punched her ex in the puss?? nah…doesn’t fit with the ‘cinderella’ fantasy.
That People Mag. looks crazy. It’s funny because I just got an email from them the other day asking me to call them for the magazine, but I told them that I wouldn’t. I guess that’s why.
Michael Clayton did not debut as strongly as expected, and having just seen it, let me theorize as to why. Right up front, I’ll say I think the screenwriter (Tony Gilroy) bears the mantle of responsibility. The execution is brilliant, so it’s gotta be the script.
MC starts out fever-pitch and never lets up. Even the scenes where MC visits with his family and interacts with the kids? Feels just as tense. Which is weird. The ride we are on is full tilt the entire film.
A lot of the characters in the film are practically interchangeable. In a big action filled film, that’s the norm, but this is a character-driven film where character differentiation is needed.
GC’s character ‘reversal’ at the end is a welcome respite from all this sameness, but frankly, I am still puzzled as to how he figured out who the baddie was. I’ll see this again on DVD to unravel that question. The screenwriter (Gilroy) didn’t connect the dots the way I would have liked. He asks the audience to fill in a few too many gaps in plot logic. In a well-written script, the audience does not lose the story line.
A lot of the things said are ‘murky’. If the characters on screen aren’t clear and passionate and well-defined, I am not going to be feeling it either.
Having worked in law firms, I have never seen a scene such as that depicted in the beginning of the film, with gobs of attorneys in one big room all going over papers/the case. I’ve also never heard of law firms designating one guy as a ‘fixer’. Everyone in a law firm is a ‘fixer’ of sorts (they all try to apply the law to benefit their client), but not ‘one guy’. Which brings in to question the very premise of the film.
Tilda Swinton plays a villainous corporate executive. She has vaguely menacing conversations with henchmen. We are not sure how she knows these henchmen, or why they would be so loyal to her, or why she would meet with them face to face (so they can identify her later during plea bargaining?). Her tone is abstract and gutless. People who want to have someone killed come right out and say it (this tidbit is gleaned from watching TV shows that specialize in undercover operations and play the actual tapes of orders given to hit men). They say how they want the murder to be carried out. They get right to it, because they are truly evil. And we know they are evil because we hear it said. Swinton’s character never comes right out and says what she wants. She is psychologically complex, fragile even, but that’s not what we want in a villain. As depicted, she comes off more as a victim of her own ambition than as a truly evil person.
GC’s character is in a morally ambiguous position throughout. He’s compromised in both his personal life and on the job. That’s believable (after you accept the fact that a fixers exist). And that’s the kind of complexity I find interesting. But I never once believed he was in any real danger. That’s a problem in a movie such as this. For example, the guy he owes money to is not threatening to chop of a limb, or even beat him up. He meets with him and they talk as if he is discussing loan terms with his banker. Where’s the conflict? How can this situation be a real problem for our hero if there is no real consequence to his never paying up?
I like the fact that MC redeems himself (eventually). My problem has more to do with this character’s tone, because whether he’s telling his boss (Sydney Pollack) about his gambling debt, or talking to his kid, or meeting with the guy he owes money to, we feel like this character is ‘stuck’. As if we are watching the same scene. That points to flaws in character development in the script.
The good things: The look of this film is “sexy, urban, sophisticated”. GC looks great — very Omar Shariff, eyeliner and all. It’s gritty realism, not sugar coating. Corporations and law firms, like all entities, are motivated by survival. Behind the “LLP” or “LLC” tags, are people with families and mouths to feed. So in a sense we can buy this story, we can see how a guy might wind up with this kind of (however fictitious) job in a law firm.
In spite of my quibbles, I think MC is definitely a film that is a ‘cut above’. I like the fact that GC is ‘everyman’ (many face morally ambiguous choices at some point in our working lives).
It’s taken in approximately $21 mill at the box office to date. Their budget was $25 mill, but that excludes marketing costs. Anyone know how much they spent on marketing? The film is not tanking, it’s just not setting the box office on fire as many thought it might (me included). It’s only been in release 12 days though, so there’s still hope.

“ENDBLAB”
“He should get an Oscar for his press.”—Good George Clooney bud, when we remarked Mr. C was looking to be golden-showered already, thanks to his terrific turn in Michael Clayton. Whatever did the chum mean?
Who would his true love be? Maybe his ex-wife? She’s been remarried for some time…
The Insider tonight reported on the People issue which hits news stands tomorrow. I think it was a People magazine rep who said: “There are no signs they — GC and SL — are getting ready to move in together”. So, no wedding bells in the offing.
The bull’s DNA tells him to sow his seed in as many different cows as possible, because he ensures his line’s survival by doing so. His fucking habits and preference for diversity are in his genetic code. He also gravitates to the new cow introduced into the pen. I think I read the younger the cow, the more interest, or something along those lines. How delightful.
Post-coital, a man does not have the same levels of the chemical which causes bonding as a woman does. F**k it all. Can this all be explained by genetics? Is it that simple?
Julie, there was an article on the news website Slate, http://www.slate.com/id/2175710/nav/ais/#Clooney -that explains some theories about why MC didnt’ open big. One of the arguments was the marketing. How the marketing really didn’t fit with what the movie was about. They sold the star instead of the movie. Plus the studio should have opened it in smaller venues seeing that it was difficult to market. Another theory was the fact that there are too many grown up movies selling messages out there and all basically about the same thing, how big and bad the world is. Then there’s this one. The reason why it didn’t open big was Clooney himself:
-“Clooney is very popular in Hollywood, but he cannot be counted on to open a movie. It’s happened for Ocean’s 11-12-13, but when you’re in a movie with Matt Damon and Brad Pitt, you don’t get bragging rights. There was The Perfect Storm, but that kind of co-starred the wave. “George has made a series of bad decisions as a movie star,” says a top producer. “Not as an actor, not as an artist, but as a movie star.” Clooney has given a nod to fans with the Ocean’s series, he continues, but he doesn’t give them a lot of gratification. “George has made calculated decisions about what he wants, not what the audience wants,” this producer concludes. As it turns out, you can make bad decisions as a movie star and still win Oscars and have a villa in Italy.” Like I said before, he needs to stop trying to hit us over the head with his movies with messages that cater to a select few (GC and co.) and just do a commercially marketed, big budget, action flick. Something along the lines of Transformers or Independence Day. Where the story just doesn’t focus on him, but gives the audience something to say WOW to. No harm in doing one of those every now and then.
On another note, I can’t believe she’s on the cover of the People magazine. And I can’t believe under the caption on the people magazine website, it said a friend says she’s intelligent and classy, no wonder he fell for her. Come on man, classy? Did they not see the Vegas and Amsterdam photos?
The People magazine over is a last minute attempt to get more butts in theatre seats, that’s it. A lot of celebrities are “in good” with the editor-in-chiefs at these rags and do their best to sweet talk them … hence, George’s two time cover for People’s sexiest (though he is very sexy). Tmz is now being blasted for being owned by Time Warner. It seems the ones who are dishing out the “latest” and the most “positive” dirt on George and Sarah are the ones his people are in cahoots with. The real truth only seems to stumble out on site like this where real people like DeadC refuse to have their words mangled to make someone look better (or worse, for that matter). He simply states a few truths about when he knew her and his interpretation of the mass media in general. That’s not inflamatory speak, as this crazy ass bitch “Amazing” seems to think that’s all we little peons do. I believe “Amazing” is really Sarah’s Mom typing up in last minute attempt to redeem her own pole-dancing daughter’s persona, so the family shame won’t continue down the line through Sarah’s sisters. My, how they must look up to her. Keep Googling, guys. Sarah’s hits are becoming less and less. In fact, she lost about 120,000 hits since last week alone. Just Google her name in quotes. She’s already losing her wannabe “star power”. And I am sure Clooney’s breathing a sigh of much needed relief that the nightmare is finally drawing to a close.
Now who’s got a few 20’s we can stuff in her panties when she returns to dancing in Vegas? Look her up … I am sure she’s making a list and checking it twice.
adl
who cares?
Just read “From1girl2u’s” comments and for the last time I am not “Amazing”…. I am a totally different person. I do however take your point about this site having a different function etc… I didn’t mean to get on my high horse, I just get tired of people complaining about the celebrity myth and then lapping up every little tidbit and buying the trashy mags etc… it’s dishonest. Really enjoyed Julie’s analysis of MC and have to say I pretty much agree with what she says. I didn’t really care enough about what happened to the people UNorth were poisoning and I didn’t feel that MC was ever under any real threat/pressure. I did like the scene where MC has a heart to heart with his son re: the alcoholic brother… and I did find the film interesting, if a little distant in its execution, it struck me as quite a cold film. Although I’ve never worked in law firms I happen to think there are general “fixers” i.e. the men (and women) in suits who you never see, who run things quietly behind the scenes…. Gilroy deals with this theme in the Bourne movies and I think it works here. Swinton and Wilkinson’s characters are interesting, ones I would have liked to have seen more of, but on the whole I wasn’t sure everything combined to make a great movie, just a better than average one like you say. The final scene of MC in the cab was sort of memorable, it made me think of The Conversation (although I’ve never really liked that movie much) where things quietly come to an end after the final denoument. Quite honestly I forgot it was Clooney up there, he seemed dogged and tired and just as you would expect the character to be, my partner was struck by how much he’s improved as an actor but neither of us are totally convinced by him in a straight role, I keep expecting him to pull a funny face or something but I think as he gets older and plainer he’ll get over that hurdle. Have only seen a couple of interviews but he’s repeating himself so much already I don’t think I’ll be able to watch anymore. Saw a funny one where some woman asked him about his personal life and he made her look like an idiot, it all seems a little degrading for someone who’s supposed to want to be taken seriously as a filmaker, so maybe he’ll be more circumspect as to how he handles that side of things in future…. it would irk me if I’d just put my heart and soul into a project and all people wanted to know was “am I off the singles market? etc” and I would think at his age it must all feel pretty silly. The fact is that people seem more interested in his love life than his career and that’s gotta drive you crazy on some level but then again if you sup with the devil…. Looking at the figs you quoted it always amazes me just how much films cost to make and market, sometimes I wonder if it’s worth it… it’s a heck of a lot of money. Just out of interest, have you seen Atonement and if so what did you think of it? I have never posted on a blog site before but I’m beginning to think this is pretty cool.
STFU: That is why GC pays his PR guy, Stan Rosenfield, the big bucks. To land him on People’s cover. That’s fine — he’s in the game, I get that. But don’t go on Letterman and pretend that ‘just happened’. Come on. It’s a ruse for sure, but also fairly harmless.
i do not agree that gc is sexy, at least for me the grey hair is a major turnoff. he darkened the front somewhat for one of his recent talkshow appearances, and it looked good. he needs a good colorist, who could take years off his look, with an artful coloring job that blends dark with some grey, so it does not look fake. same with richard gere. not sexy! and the scraggly look for gc’s latest cohen brothers’ film isn”t helping. he should be selling sleek and glamorous, not this homeless looking crap. when a 28 year old goes macking on grey, it’s only for one reason: $$$.
Somebody needs to get on the healthy living bandwagon!!

Thanks 1 girl, and thanks to Spirit too. Unlike MC, when i watched Erin Brockovich, there was hardly a moment when I was not completely involved in the film. I cared, no REALLY cared, if PG&E (or whatever the company was named) got nailed, and I also cared about its victims. I also really cared about Erin Brockovich, about her children, and even about Ed Masry (which is saying something, because no one in his/her right mind cares about attorneys). We saw Erin’s gradual involvement with, and eventual unearthing of, the PROBLEM (the chemicals, the poisoning of groundwater), and we were with her all the way while she kicked ass to set the world right. MC isn’t involved in anything. We know he’s ‘on’ to something, but what the frick is it? He doesn’t kick anyone’s ass until the very end. Even the opening scene, that of MC going out to ‘fix’ a client’s hit-and-run, isn’t related to the main problem (U North), and as a result, the scene feels like an annoying story detour. I am not sure if Gilroy is cerebral, or just a lousy screenwriter. I suspect the latter. Since the plot and characters and their relationships are all so murky and ill-defined, the best one can say is that MC is a really talky thriller (but not really).
I’m so so jealous of her :'(
George Clooney…I wish I could be your girlfriend too or even just your friend. I want to at least see you in real life and have a conversation …just for once in my life
You’re so hot, so cute, so handsome, so perfect. AHHH
I’m so jealous of Sarah. I just think he should be single or else…just having heard that he has a gf….it hurts me so badd
(T_T)
i’m so lifeless…
Spirit, I never implied that you were Amazing. You stated you weren’t her so I believe you . I was commenting on what Amazing said so if it seemed I mistook you for her I didn’t mean it like that. Although, I like the break down of the film by Spirit and Julie, I’m still not sure I want to see it. Regardless of if its’ good or not.
“Leatherheads” release is delayed, he won’t star “White jazz”… why? Anything dealing with his private life? just a strategic move? What do you thing?
I read on a blog that according to People, GC and SL have “known each other for years”, and another blog implied that he should be careful because she would sue him for damages when they break up, and that she had a history of doing this. Just curious if anyone knows if any of that is true? Dead C?
Also, that blog pointed out that 11days after breaking toes/ foot she is walking fine on sandals and her foot looks fine, how exactly is that possible, I would like to know?
Susan,
I know he had to do some reshoots for Leatherheads, so that might have something to do with the delay. There was also some oscar talk in regards to Michael Clayton, if it is nominated, there would be a whole oscar campaign. But I still wonder too, if it is a cooling off period for press as well. He really doesn’t seem quite himself lately. He seems a bit more irritable in interviews, and most of the times I have seen pictures of him out with SL he looks drunk to me.(jmo)
No idea why they’d delay leatherheads, maybe he is going to marry Sarah and needs time…ok, sorry even I don’t believe that, it was just easy, watch someone completely agree with that..’-)
I’d say he over booked himself, AND if he wants the Oscar for MC he needs to work for it, like he did before which means he cant be off making a movie and campaigning for Oscar too, its too hard logistics wise and probably physically for him to do both. Plus, he’s pretty much saturated the market for a while, between this new relationship, the accident and the new movie, its GC all the time.
They met in June of this year, at least that was the story that came out, and now they’ve known each other for years, perhaps they are measuring time in dog and cat years, but I doubt they’ve known each other for years, were that the case, even casually, it would have been the first thing out of the press release, she served drinks, in a club he visited sometimes, how well do you know your waitress?
Their story keeps changing, they are trying to give the relationship legs it doesn’t have, they need to pick a story and stick with it.
It was more like three weeks before she was off the crutches; maybe being in his presence brought about miraculous healing abilities or she wasn’t hurt nearly as badly as reported.
no way any toe was broken since she was off crutches a few days later. does not happen. maybe stubbed her toe, more like. here’s another example of an overhyped celeb, supposedly one of the most beautiful supermodels ever (who was dumped by dicaprio for someone more gorgeous). the entertainnent media does a GREAT job of lying to us all. but, she gives really good press. this pic proves she’s scrawny, has no waist, no rear, and no boobs: http://popsugar.com/gallery/153589
Well the press is good, at lying to us, I agree, but it’s up to us whether or not we want to believe the stuff they put out. If you’ve ever seen her, the former Dicaprio arm candy, you can see for yourself she’s scrawny. We know she’s scrawny but in the fashion world that’s what they want then peddle push it to the real women that she’s a supermodel with a gorgeous curvy body. Yeah right. She’s shaped like a boy. Just like SL, she doesn’t have a body either, http://mavrixonline.com/mavrixonline/sarah_larson/.
Molly, I heard/read that he has to continue promoting MC and that they are looking for it to be an Oscar contender for GC so that means more atta-boys, plus he is still scoring Leatherheads with Randy Newman. His people asked if the movie White Jazz could be pushed back some so he could still work his schedule and be in the movie but the director Joe Carnahan wanted to start on time so… I also read he’s going to be an executive board member for some environmental project or something in Europe. Plus he was developing a new show contender for Showtime plus numerous other things going on.
I think he needs to take a break. I think he has come out with a movie or two every year since Ocean’s 11 either as an actor or a producer or both. His career is going almost like when Jude Law had six movies out at once in one full year and none of them did him any good or were that good for that matter. We’re going to suffer from GC overload. And for her, SL, to supposedly have broke 4 bones in her foot and can walk fine just two weeks later in sandles, if that, is just short of unbelievable.
quedice, I think he seems a little bit irritated too in interviews and just in general since SL entered the picture. Despite the lovey dovey “let’s show the press we’re really a couple” kiss-fest they pulled off at dinner with the Gerbers, he just doesn’t seem himself. Sometimes he looks like he’s running away from her, walking ahead of her and looking down when he walks. When he’s just with the guys he looks relaxed and at ease. I think he really is the type that does better in relationships when they’re kept private and definitely behind close doors and not so open and public.

Sara (not Larson) thanks for the reality check. Everyone says I should snap out of the fasination with GC. I do like him a lot, I dated a man with premature grey hair, that’s when I started to become a fan. Years later, I dated a guy for years that had the exact same facial features of George, but my guy was more built. That is how the fasination started, I’m not exactly looking to be with some famous actor. I love Georges look, and probably would date a man that looked like him if he was classy and well off, yes that is important to me.
I want to see George with a different girl, no I don’t find SL beautiful, some men like her, but most females don’t find her all that. So if any George look-a-like fits my description, fly out to vegas, leave your email, ha ha.
At least that victoria girl is hot and blonde like me.
As for Donald Trump, because I spend way too much of my life researching George info, GC put down Donald jokenly when Oprah asked him what he would change and GC said “Donald Trumps hair,” it was funny, but as we know with the Rosie problem, Donald does not take any prisioners, and stop lying to yourself people, GC is not 5′ 10″ he’s between 5’8″ and 5’9″, I am one of the few people on here that seen him in person.
I do think SL will get her job at the Palms, she will try for stardom, but fail.
I have been asked out by D list celebrities, I just laugh at them, the only celebrity that I ever wanted is GEORGE CLOONEY, not because he is on tv, but because he is Hot, and I do like his personality from what I seen in person (GC dancing in the elevator) and his interviews. But as everyone says, maybe you will meet him and get with him, and you might be disappointed. As for now, I will try to get a life :) and find a man I don’t have to fly out to N.Y, and try to meet. Oh, and the playboy club was only opened for about a year, he met SL for the first time that night, he liked her, from what I heard from one the bunnies that night, and left without her. It should of been with me, but o well, next time :) And i do believe the stories of his hook-ups that is why there is condoms. I do not plan on being with GC without one. It might only last one night, or maybe until he moves on, but it will be fun, and it will be nice to meet him.
i saw photos of SL and GC about 4 days after the accident. she was off crutches (wearing silver flat sandals) and there was no wrapping on any of her toes, or even a bandage.
Lsweetie,
I heard that GC actually lost an inch or two with those spinal surgeries he had, so I’m guessing you are right about the height thing.(plus you actually saw him).I thought they met at another club in the palms, interesting to hear that it might have been the playboy club. In the past,(before the public pda) he usually left the clubs without the women he was with (krista allen and lisa snowden) and then met back up with them later that night. I doubt sl will go back to cocktailing after GC, but I agree with you that I don’t think she will get the stardom she is probably seeking. Right now, I think both of GC’s on/off girlfriends (if you could call Allen that) from the last 5 years, appear to be in other relationships at the same time, so I think it was time for someone new. GC will most likely put her in a tv series, like he did for Allen, if SL wants to be an actress. They will probably be together through the new year, and when he breaks it off, he will make sure she is well provided for financially, so she will not need to go back to Vegas.
Clooney Tonic
NYP Page Six (where’s Sarah?)
WALKING away from a motorcycle accident in Weehawken, N.J., with only a broken rib has rejuvenated George Clooney. On Saturday, the “Michael Clayton” star partied at the West Street Grill in Litchfield, Conn., with Bill Murray, director Wes Anderson and Jason Schwartzman. The night before, gorgeous George was shaking his booty surrounded by beauties at the East 60th Street lounge Lollipop, after sampling the sushi next door at Geisha with Richard Jefferson of the Nets. Lollipop owners Vittorio Assaf and Fabio Granato launch their sixth Serafina on Sunday in Vikram Chatwal’s Time Hotel with a costume party for the cast of “Wicked.”
I broke 2 bones in my foot 3 years ago (cracked a couple of metatarsals, same ones as David Beckham) and it was fine – you can put the foot down you just can’t put much weight on it, admittedly the first couple of days I couldn’t walk at all and the pain was pretty bad, but after that….. Footballers (soccer) break little bones in their feet all the time and carry on playing (albeit not as well and not for as long but they run about and kick balls). They don’t usually give you crutches unless you have a cast… (at least not on the NHS!) It could have been a vanity thing, she probably thought she’d look better on crutches than she would hobbling around with a stick, it also gets you more attention and she’s more likely to get George’s steadying hand helping her as well (can’t be bad), or maybe she was also a little scared of the public reaction to her and quite literally needed an emotional crutch to get her through it. I thought this woman looked nice and sweet but I agree the broken foot and crutches thing has been OTT. I do think going out with a celebrity like that must make you a little crazy at first (or maybe she’s already a bit crazy?). He can shag who he likes though, he seems like a pretty cool guy to me and most of the women I know think he’s rather beautiful, whatever the colour of his hair or size of his waist, E molto simpatico. I think he’s like Paul Newman, he’ll still be lovely as an old man and still be doing interesting things…. George is vintage Hollywood, no dame will ever change that.
