George Clooney and his girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis were a little camera shy as they left Kazu Sushi in Studio City, CA. The couple were on a double date with Emily Blunt and John Krasinski. (Thanks to Candy for the headsup!)

Here’s a real quick Betta Update. Seems the gossip mills have been rampant with rumors of George selling the Villa and buying a new island to please Miss Betta. Apparently she’s getting tired of the Paps hanging around the place. George set that rumor to rest with this quote

“To complete the news cycle: I am not buying an island and am not selling my house in Italy. The story was made up, then picked up and now denied. End of another riveting day of false news,”

But the Pap’s haven’t stopped Betta from her work. According to this site she’s is in talks to appear in a recurring role on the third season of TNT’s drama, Leverage and below you can see pics of her hard at work on the set of her new movie and working the rounds at Milan Fashion Week.

George Clooney’s Girlfriend In Talks to Join TV Show

George Clooney may have to start sharing the spotlight! His girlfriend, Italian model Elisabetta Canalis, is in talks to appear in a recurring role on the third season of TNT’s drama, Leverage, a source tells UsMagazine.com. “She’s very excited about the part as well as the chance to break into American television,” the source tells Us. Canalis — an Italian TV personality who has had a few acting gigs in her native country — met with the show’s producers in January to discuss the potential role, which would have her act as a mysterious international secret agent. According to the source, Canalis, 31, has Clooney, 48, to thank for the potential gig. His good friend, Richard Kind, guest stars on Leverage’s second season finale (which airs Wednesday), and helped her connect with the show’s producers. “He told her what a great experience it was and how much he enjoyed it,” the source says. “So when the opportunity came up, she was thrilled.” Although she currently resides in Italy, she is making plans to come stateside to shoot her scenes. “She knows she’ll be over here to be with George at the Oscars so she’s hoping to shoot some of her part then,” the source tells Us. Leverage’s season finale airs Wednesday at 10 p.m. EST on TNT. The next season is scheduled to premiere this summer.

Superstar George Clooney and about 20 other people involved in the movie based on Kaui Hart Hemmings’ book “The Descendants” dined at Duc’s Bistro in Chinatown on Wednesday night. Singer-guitarist Mihana Souza, who sings there Thursdays, welcomed Clooney and the group with her family chant of aloha. “It was very Hawaiian,” Mihana said. “George Clooney is very handsome and very nice,” she added. Mihana sang for two hours at the party. About 70 pieces of Mihana and husband Chuckie Souza’s furniture, artifacts and artwork will be used in the picture … Source

Here’s a bit of gossip out there apparantly George and Betta were out doing a bit of shopping this week.

George Clooney and lady love Elisabetta Canalis shopping in Diesel on Melrose on Monday.

Gossip-Cop confirms what we already knew – it’s just not true….

Complete with a huge typo in the lead sentence, the National Enquirer claims in a story titled “Clooney’s Hush-Hush Baby Plans” that “’Goregous’ George Clooney’s ready to become a daddy!”

OK. Try to follow this one…

According to the tab, “During the holidays, gorgeous [spelled correctly] model Elisabetta Canalis told George that she wants to get pregnant. Friends of 48-year-old Clooney were shocked when he responded: ‘Sounds like a plan to me! When do we get started?’”

Not even sticking to its own premise, the Enquirer then claims that a so-called “source” says Clooney asked Canalis “what she wanted for Christmas, [and] she said, ‘Your baby!’”

The tab goes on to say that it got Clooney to “think about how ready he is to be a dad and what a perfect mother Elisabetta would be.” The Enquirer even quotes that supposed “source” as saying that at Clooney’s Christmas party, the Oscar winner told essentially everyone “the story of Elisabetta’s Christmas wish for a baby – adding that if she is a really good girl, next Christmas Santa might bring her what she asks for.”

Wait, he told everyone his “hush-hush baby plans” at a Christmas party?

(And it’s only getting out now?)

Not one source we contacted could verify this baby talk. And Clooney’s rep commented, “Not even worth a response.”

Here’s the latest on George’s Bachelor status — looks like it remains intact!

GEORGE CLOONEY is urging fans to stop speculating about a possible engagement to girlfriend ELISABETTA CANALIS – the actor is adamant he will never marry his long term lover because he would be a “lousy husband.”

The Hollywood heart-throb was recently rumoured to have proposed to the Italian beauty, but a representative for the star dismissed the reports, insisting the couple, who have been dating since last summer (09), have no plans to exchange vows.

And Clooney has confirmed there won’t be a wedding any time soon.  He tells Britain’s Reveal magazine, “I tried marriage and it didn’t work. I have had long relationships with women and they get bored with me working all the time. My fear is that I would make a lousy husband and I don’t want to put myself, or anyone else, through the pain of finding out. If I was my girlfriend, I wouldn’t put up with me for very long!”

The CAA Golden Globes after-party at Sunset Tower was the place to be last night, where celebs like George Clooney (looking mighty, uh, happy, despite Up In The Air practically getting shut out), Reese Witherspoon, Cameron Diaz, Heidi Klum & Seal braved the rain to party like rock stars.

Also at the big bash were Orlando Bloom, Robert Downey Jr., Miranda Kerr, Taylor Lautner, Mickey Rourke and girlfriend Elena, Woody Harrelson, Stanley Tucci, Bradley Cooper, Helen Mirren, Quentin Tarantino, Molly Sims, and Eli Roth.

Half of Hollywood came out to the Chateau Marmont last night (Jan 16) for yet another pre-Golden Globes party, this time hosted by Paramount…

George Clooney and his latest ladylove, Elisabetta Canalis, were among the stars in attendance. Not to mention Lindsay Lo, Chace Crawford, Joe Jonas, Mark Wahlberg, Jodie Foster and Lisa Rinna.

Several A-listers kicked things off early last night, going out to celebrate at Paramount’s party at the Chateau Marmont according to E!

Leonardo DiCaprio was there with on-again girlfriend Bar Refaeli, holding court at a table with George Clooney and Martin Scorsese. The guys were all smoking cigars together and presumably trading stories (oh, to be a fly on that wall!). Leo is presenting a lifetime achievement award to the legendary director today.  Other guests at the starry soiree included Tina Fey, Jodie Foster and Rose McGowan.

Pop Eater says it’s all about the redcarpet! George and Betta have made this celeb site list of “can’t wait to sees” for the 2009-2010 Award Season walks.

The Eye Candy: George Clooney and the Hot Brunette He’s Dating
It’s a running joke in Hollywood — okay, everywhere — that George Clooney will forever be a bachelor. Each time he starts dating someone new, everyone gets all excited and wonders if she’s going to be the one to crack Clooney’s code. And time and time again, the movie star turns up single. His current lady friend, the stunning Elisabetta Canalis, has been joining him at movie premieres and film festivals since September. And with all of Clooney’s nominations for his lead role in the film, ‘Up in the Air,’ the big question is: will he or won’t he bring his latest leading lady to all the shows? Assuming these two are still going strong, we’re guessing she’ll make the cut and escort him this season. We hope so-the salt-and-pepper whiskered movie star and his stylish and enchanting date sure make one dapper duo!
