Finally a voice of reason and maturity


George Clooney has slammed Paris Hilton
http://thebosh.com/archives/2007/06/george_clooney_slams_paris_hilton.php


The Oscar-winning actor believes the blonde beauty is using "cheap publicity tricks" to maintain her celebrity status.

Clooney insisted that Hilton has no right to complain when she is criticized by the media outlets that helped to make her famous.

He said: "You can only get so far without any discernible talent. Then you either work or use cheap publicity tricks to keep the public's attention.

"Then you are in no position to complain if, like Paris, you are on the receiving end of bad publicity."

5. "You can only get so far without any discernible talent." Man, did
Edited on Mon Jun-11-07 12:53 PM by spenbax
he ever hit the nail on the head with that statement. If Paris EVER said anyting even remotely interesting then maybe I could take her, but the truth is she hasn't and she may be incapable of saying anything interesting - she really isn't interesting.

9. Well he is right, just look at his Oceans X saga.
Should have left well enough alone at the first one. In all fairness, Clooney has more raw talent in one of those ascending toes than Paris has in her whole body AND her friend Richie too.

George, why don't you run for office?
