George Clooney and Elisabetta Canalis both pet friendly star celebs?
[Apr. 6]
There is no bachelor more eligible in the world than the currently taken Hollywood actor George Clooney. Presently the green celeb is dating an Italian bikini swimsuit model named Elisabetta Canalis, and while she seems to have more critics than friends in Italy for her outspoken antics on MTV’s TRL show (where she hosts) and penchant for dating soccer players, she’s slowly gaining popularity with Americans and some Europeans after landing a relationship with the famous movie star.
George Clooney owns a private estate in Lake Como, Italy where he and the Italian beauty first met. She apparently has a place across the lake and some tabloid gossip reports say when George Clooney first saw Elisabetta Canalis and realized she was already a public figure in Italy, he was smitten.
Why?
Well, besides the fact that the young lady has a fabulous bum that must stop traffic whenever she walks down the street and undoubtedly impresses beach goers every time she strolls down the sand on any continent’s azure coast and sandy shores, the two seem to have some very curious traits in common.
First, George Clooney was rumored to be infatuated with all things Italian long before he met Elisabetta Canalis. Gossip sources say he was obsessed with finding an Italian paramour who could travel with him around Italy and live with him at his home to teach him the language. Elisabetta was just that — and hoping to improve her English-speaking skills so she could star in Hollywood movie and television series some day. The natural relationship that formed between the two over the lack of commonality of language was, for that reason, a win win for the celebrity couple.
Second, Elisabetta Canalis came along at a time when George Clooney was not only involved in advocating to end the humanitarian crisis in Darfur, but also when he was about to head out to meet and greet all his Hollywood celebrity friends to ask them for money to help Haiti. Before the earthquake struck, Clooney was in need of a stunning date to take with him to the red carpet and high fashion events that were related to the heavy fall movie premiere launches for a slew of films, giving her plenty of flash camera time — but Canalis place as George Clooney’s sidekick seems to have come more behind the scenes where she played celebrity home hostess to all the Hollywood actors and actresses who came to vacation stay at George Clooney’s lakeside mansion on holiday. From the outside looking in, it appeared as if Clooney offered celebrity friends a get away perk to stay at his place for being good green celebs and chipping in to help his charity benefit causes; it also appeared as if Elisabetta played the hot tour guide, helping his English-speaking friends vacation out of the public eye while exploring historical Italy. That made her the perfect pretend housewife at just the right time George Clooney needed one the most, while offering her a chance to really make friends with the Hollywood elite that will undoubtedly help her along in her career even when she and Clooney inevitably part company.
Third, the two star celebs seem to have something else very curious in common. While they both have parenting natures (maternal for her and paternal for him), it is not in either of their short-term or long-range plans to have babies. That’s right — neither Elisabetta Canalis or George Clooney want kids. They both prefer to exercise their co-parenting skills taking care of family pets. George Clooney is famous as a green celebrity for being pet-friendly as the former proud papa of a huge Vietnamese pot-bellied pig, while Elisabetta Canalis says all her maternal instincts are kept in shape working out with her pet puppies. The model is a pet-friendly dog lover who also has spent considerable time advocating on behalf of animal rights charities. She claims she would rather have dogs than kids.
So, there you have it.
George Clooney and Elisabetta Canalis are pet friendly humanitarians and green celebrities.
