On- and off-screen, George Clooney is recognized as [[SilverFox a major sex symbol]], and was for a long time one of Hollywood's most famous bachelors. In 2014 he married Amal Alamuddin, a Lebanese-British human rights lawyer. In June 2017, she gave birth to twins Ella and Alexander. He is frequently cited as one of the world's sexiest men, and is compared to Creator/CaryGrant in his Old Hollywood style. Also known for his very vocal liberalism and his more general humanitarian work. The latter has led to him being dubbed the "class president" of Hollywood. He has so far avoided any major scandals and appears to be a genuinely normal, down-to-earth, and of course inconceivably handsome man. Women want him; men want to be him; [[EvenTheGuysWantHim men want him too]]. ''[[TheAce What a guy...]]''
