Clooney's Cookie Crumbs

newslive24 From an Italian blog. It makes some fair points but big fat FAIL on blaming US bloggers for rumours which ALL originated on the Italian sites! Offended Italian bloggers need to be castigating the Italian gossip-mongers and putting the blame squarely where it belongs.

Clooney, Canalis and the most incredible rumors about them coming from bloggers in the USA.

The love story between Elizabeth Canalis and George Clooney has what we might call a "sequel". Although the official story of this "new chapter" in the saga of love for the whole summer has enthralled millions of people is all to check. The matter is so smokey that after a few hours, newspapers and news Web sites have spread virtually irreconcilable information. Indeed, it went from George and Elizabeth having a good time in Mexico with Cindy Crawford and husband Randy Gerber, to a "crisis" with no return and lots of "third" inconvenience.

But let's go with order: The most cautious of the bloggers recorded some investments in various events, both public and private, others are rather nastier and note the absence of other manifestations, as if there was something "wrong" with him. Moreover, the really evil ones, manufacturing a salacious story every time Elizabeth greets a man. Canalis is a woman involved in show business, not a housewife, and has always had a busy social life for her work, regardless of Clooney. At least it makes us smile.

“Up in the Air.”
by Anthony Lane December 7, 2009


For those of us who look to the skies, two major releases compel attention. They make the perfect couple. One is “Up in the Air,” the new film from Jason Reitman, who made “Thank You for Smoking” and “Juno.” The other is “Come Fly with Me,” which has been reissued on vinyl by Capitol, fifty-one years after its first appearance, in the unpolluted mono sound that God—or Frank Sinatra—intended. The half-century that is bracketed by the album and the film has witnessed both the expansion and the degradation of a dream. The tilt of Sinatra’s hat, on the cover of the LP, and the position of his hands (one lightly holding a woman’s, the other motioning with jerked thumb, as if a trip to Capri were as swift and painless as hitching a ride) inform us that, thanks to airplanes, the world is now his, and ours, for the asking. Whereas the face of Ryan Bingham (George Clooney), in the final moments of “Up in the Air,” as he stares at an airport departures board, bears the lagged blankness of someone who has long since forgotten what to ask for.

Daily Mail and Update:
Enjoying a getaway over the holiday weekend, George Clooney, Elisabetta Canalis, Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber were spotted in Mexico yesterday (November 27). The foursome sat poolside soaking up the rays and enjoying the warm temperatures, and did not look very pleased when they realized the paparazzi had spotted them.




Double take: George Clooney holidays with friend Cindy Crawford and doppelganger girlfriend Elisabetta.

George Clooney really does live a charmed life. Not only is he globally acknowledged as a heart-throb and respected actor, but he is known for having dated a string of beautiful women. And now he is on holiday with supermodel Cindy Crawford - some men have all the luck. Relaxing in Mexico with the 43-year-old and her husband Randy Gerber, the actor had also brought along his latest girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis.
