Writing the autobiography of George Clooney would just take too damn long.

In an effort to placate my writer's block I've been doing some other stuff. That other stuff probably does not (maybe) include me writing this interview with George Clooney in the March issue of the US Esquire.

I know, however, that when there's an article with George that talks about his bromance with Brad, the gay gay gay rumours, and has George reading ER FAN FICTION you all might not be inclined to believe me.

To which I say, if you like the article, it's okay if you just read it on-line and don't buy the magazine, because except for this fabulously entertaining and well-written article, the American version of Esquire is a conservative piece of misogynist tripe. The UK version is MUCH better.

(So the UK version can hire me now. Plz? I can leave tomorrow.)

"No. I'm gay, gay. The third gay -- that was pushing it."

Now, are you absolutely certain that you didn't write this? Because, well, I'm not. Also: ever get the feeling that George would love your work? Because I do.

As I was telling V, no matter how I try, I can't ever really accurately convey how awesome George actually is.

People always think I make this stuff up, but really he's much cooler than even I can accurately convey.

OH MY GOD HE SHOWED CLOONEY 2G1C. NOW I'M DED FROM FLAIL.

UM. SO THE OTHER DAY IN ONE OF MY CLASSES SOMEONE FELT IT WAS PERTINENT TO THE TOPIC AT HAND TO MENTION 2G1C. AND MY PROFESSOR ACTUALLY WROTE IT DOWN....SO THAT SHE COULD SEE IT.

Yeahhhhh. Such a bad idea. I mean, I've only ever watched the videos of other people watching it, and read the Wikipedia entry, and THAT WAS TOTALLY ENOUGH THANK YOU OMG.

[identity profile] reserve.livejournal.com 2008-03-11 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
You're telling me. It was bad enough when someone described it in class and our professor looked EXCITED.

Have you ever seen The Cook the Thief his Wife & her Lover? That was our most recent assignment.

Epic fail.

Okay, that movie will put you off anything, for ever.

Thankfully (?), I have no idea what you're talking about. So... probably blessed in my ignorance?

The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cook%2C_the_Thief%2C_His_Wife_%26_Her_Lover). It's a British black comedy starring many big names. It, uh, uh... yeah.

Heh. I just finished reading that. I... think I will pass.

I'd heard it was a bit 'off' but when I finally saw it I was just like O_O.

I will probably never eat again. Or read a proper book again. Or have sex again. So yes, bless your ignorance.

OH NO. Dude, I didn't even LINK TO IT, just for that reason! YOU BROUGHT THIS ON YOURSELF.

[identity profile] hackthis.livejournal.com 2008-03-11 05:48 pm (UTC)(link)
NO! You said explicitly where information could be found about it. Therefor you are supplying the means! You are a dealer. You're totally going down, Marlo!

I totally have Michael in pocket. The only person who could scare me at this point would a back-from-the-dead Snoop!

I am morbidly curious about 2G1C, but I am also SCARED. And don't want to be scarred, heh. Is even the wiki entry that bad? Should I remain in blissful ignorance?

You investigate at your own risk. That's all I've got to say.

Oh my, that was great. And are you positive you didn't have something to do with that article. Or, they should call you for a follow-up.

Is this the same issue of Esquire in which they published RPF about Heath Ledger (http://heidi8.livejournal.com/880424.html)? Their RPF is ghoulish, so they would seriously benefit from publishing tasteful smutty shiny, glee-filled RPF by someone with brains and talent (ie you).

[identity profile] amanuensis1.livejournal.com 2008-03-11 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
But even the American version of Esquire is worlds above American women's magazines, which do nothing but talk about celebrities and how to please your man and how to lose weight. Esquire says a hearty f**k-you to all that, bless them.

Great interview. Thanks for sharing. Loved his response to bromance with Brad. If I was a girl and he was a girl.....

I laughed out loud like a half dozen times. I adore that man.

I'm sure this reporter will go down in history as 'the one who showed George Clooney 2G1C'.

'I did get my balls done, though. I got them unwrinkled' - thanks, i just spat my much needed risotto everywhere! You SO wrote this!

What what you know George is sending all his boys the 2g1c link. He's like, "BRAD, dude, you have got to fuckin' watch this. (pause) ... maybe put a video in for the kids first."
