From an article speculating that Angelina is concerned about Brad’s relationship with Cate Blanchett.
In an interesting twist to the tale, Angelina turned to George Clooney for advice. However, when she voiced her concerns about Brad’s admiration for Cate, the mischievous Clooney said little to put her mind at rest. I’m told: “George kept going on about how similar Cate is to Angie - and is the only other woman who can really compare with her beauty.” Australian-born Cate, 37, is by all accounts happily married to the “homely” Mr Upton, who is content to work far less than his wife, taking months off to look after their two young sons while she pursues her film career.

Clooney Uncovers Source of Wedding Stories

Dec 16, 2006 (WENN via COMTEX) — GEORGE CLOONEY has discovered the source of the reports pal BRAD PITT was marrying ANGELINA JOLIE at his Italian retreat on Lake Como - a hotel nearby. The actor received frantic calls from staff at his lake house in February (06) explaining the area had become a mecca for local paparazzi and news crews, but he couldn’t pinpoint who had falsely tipped them off about a wedding ceremony. But recent investigation lead Clooney to believe the owners of a hotel that overlooks the lake were to blame - in an effort to boost business. He reveals, “It took us a while to figure it out but it was interesting. There is a very famous hotel on the Lake that shuts down from November through March and the last two years it’s been sold out for weeks because the press thought someone was getting married at my place. “It was Brad and Angelina or it was TOM (CRUISE) and KATIE (HOLMES). That hotel was leaking the story.” Clooney admits he initially played along with the ruse: “I set up 12 high-top tables and chairs on the lawn and the helicopters kept flying around for days.” Clooney is even thinking about sparking rumours for 2007 himself - to keep his Italian retreat in the news and the local hotel busy: “I think the secret to actually getting away with a wedding at Lake Como is keep telling the press who’s gonna be getting married there next year? “I should do it. That’s it, I’m getting married there next year. Let’s start the rumour now!” (KL&RXM/WN/IG 16 December 2006 (c) 2006 World Entertainment News Network, All Rights Reserved ) (Thanks to Anita the Norman for the headsup)

Clooney proud of Pitt, Jolie charity work
Dec. 4, 2006 at 11:07AM (The Washington Times)
U.S. actor George Clooney says he “couldn’t be prouder” to be the friend of globetrotting do-gooders Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Over the past year or so, Pitt and Jolie have traveled ceaselessly, raising awareness and offering humanitarian aid to some of the world’s neediest citizens. “I’m concerned for their well-being,” Clooney said. “I’m more concerned by the idea that if you don’t do those things, what does that mean? … I couldn’t be prouder to be their friend. I think that they’re doing a phenomenal job. They’re really committed to bringing attention. They have a very smart theory, which is, if the cameras are going to follow them, they’re going to go where the cameras can do some good.” Clooney dismissed reports that Pitt and Jolie will marry at his home in Italy, adding he thinks the false rumors came from a local hotel trying to boost its business during the off-season. “The last two years, it’s been sold out in November or March — sold out for weeks because they thought it was Brad and Angelina, Tom (Cruise) and Katie (Holmes.) That hotel is leaking the story.”
