George Clooney: Five Fun Facts



1. The salt-and-pepper haired George Clooney plans on aging gracefully. He told Playboy "You don't want to try to look younger because you'll look wrong. You dye your hair, you look wrong. You wear a bad toupee, you look wrong. You wear makeup to hide things, you get your eyes done, you look wrong."
2. A legendary prankster, George Clooney pulled a fast one on his Ocean's 11 coworkers – covering producer Jerry Weintraub's doorknobs with Vaseline and fixing a bucket of water over a doorway, designed to soak Julia Roberts. A surprised bellman was drenched instead.
3. George Clooney lived in a friend's walk-in closet for a few months during his first year in Hollywood.
4. George Clooney famously bet Nicole Kidman and Michelle Pfeiffer $10,000 apiece that he would still be unmarried and childless when he turned 40 in 2001. "If anyone wants to make the same bet for when I'm 50," he said that same year, "get in touch." (He won the bet.)
5. Pals crashing at George Clooney's Los Angeles bachelor pad used to use his pet pig Max as a walking Post-it, scratching messages like "Go get milk" on the dry skin of his back. Clooney's beloved pig died in December 2006.
