Clooney’s Loony

HANG onto your surgical support stockings girls – George Clooney has a new lover.

“Clooney mad for Birkin,” says the headline in the Mirror. And we take umbrage at the word “mad”. Surely actress Ellen Birkin, for it is she, is a woman to be fancied by the sane as well as the crazed?

Which man would not lust after a Hollywood siren? Sure, she is a 52-year-old mother of two but George is 45. Is Ellen not more suited to George’s age than his past loves, like cereal model Lisa Snowden, 34, and Krista Allen, 35?

Whatever the reason, the story is that George has “fallen for” Ellen. George is captivated by her “stimulating conversation” – “they’ve bonded as on fast rides on his motorbike.”

Incidentally, George and Ellen are both filming Oceans 13, the movie in which Danny Ocean and his crack team of thieves recreate the Last Supper in a bank vault of a Vegas casino. Al Pacino stars.

As a source says: “She fancies him like mad and you can cut the sexual chemistry on set with a knife.”

Might it be that we are on course for another film set romance, in the mould of Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn, J-Lo and Ben Affleck and Rin Tin Tin and Lassie?

And might it be part of the script..?
