Actor George Clooney might claim he does not like all the media attention he gets from the press, but its his own fault really that we follow him like we do. After all, if he would stop making movies that are so good and would quit winning so many big name Hollywood awards, we would not hound him for press quotes and celebrity interviews. That may be one reason why celebrity friend Brad Pitt says he hopes this year George Clooney wins all the awards in the world. Why? Because if he wins, maybe the paparazzi will be more interested in snapping photos of the older actor and his latest lady love rather than Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie (the celebrities they normally like to follow more).

“The Moneyball actor, who was beaten by Clooney at the Golden Globes earlier this year, thinks that having a friend at the ceremony is “more fun” [though]… said Entertainment Wise, one celebrity gossip journal.

When asked if her was a bit jealous that George had been beating him out at other awards shows during a call to The Today Show, the hot Hollywood actor said, “Absolutely not. It’s more fun to have a friend there [attending an awards show and competing against him]“.

He went on to say that when it comes to acting, “No one does it better than George. I say give him all the trophies, and when you run out of trophies, make some new ones and give him those, too.”

Knowing that Brad Pitt feels so warmly towards George, its easy to understand that when the two actors make jokes at one another’s expense like they usually do whenever they have to speak to the press or in front of an audience at an awards ceremony they chide and poke fun at one another like they do.

After all, the celebrity friends have been best buddies for years but they hardly get a chance to spend a lot of time together anymore. Quality time between the two men has become what’s important since Brad Pitt stays busy helping Angelina Jolie raise their six celebrity kids and George Clooney spends most of his time grooming young women to walk the red carpet by his side as smiling, sexy, and demure escorts.

And for the record, yes — Elisabetta Canalis and Stacy Keiber both resemble that remark.

Just kidding, George.

Glad to hear the movie The Descendents is cleaning up the 2012 movie awards.
