George Clooney at an Ides of March Photocall in Cancun

Single George Clooney Steps Out Postsplit For The Ides of March in Cancun

July 12, 2011

George Clooney flashed a smile at the Cancun Film Festival today during a photo call for his latest directorial project The Ides of March. The political thriller, which he also stars in, kept George and his costars Evan Rachel Wood and Ryan Gosling busy shooting in the Midwest for much of the Fall and Winter. Evan and Ryan didn't join George south of the border for this afternoon's festivities, and, of course, he was also without his ex-girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis. She was a frequent fixture by his side at red-carpet events for the past few years. It was his first public appearance since the end of their relationship made news in late June, and according to some reports, the reason George and Elisabetta broke up was that he doesn't want to get married or have children. Whatever the cause for the split, George has plenty on his professional plate to keep him occupied this Summer and Fall. The Ides of March hits theaters in October, The Descendants is out in December, and George has also signed on to produce his friend Ben Affleck's upcoming movie Argo.

I didn't think he was gay until recently I read that he has Advisers and lawyers helping him with his ~romantic~ relationships. WTF is that about?

I'll always love Clooney. I wished it worked out with Elisabetta. They were cute. I think he's never gotten over his first marriage. Divorce is hell. At least he doesn't get married every year to different women and have 5 kids from 5 women that he "visits" - gotta respect that.

@email. Except that Courtney and Jen hung out last week after "The Horrible Bosses" premiere. Nice try crazy lady. For the record, I don't think George is gay. I think he's a misogynist who only dates stupid women because a real woman would never put up with his crap.

I agree with you, email. There are a couple of arseholes on here spreading the usual slander. George is not gay.

Brad outted George on the David Lettermen show few years back. Matt Demon had to come back to the show to put the fires out, cover the trail and distract people. It was Brad that outted him as GAY

Why do I get the feeling he and Brad Pitt are no longer friends? They're both in Cancun on the same day and don't even have lunch together? Haven't really seen them together since they filmed the last Oceans film. I think theirs was the ultimate showmance, not in a gay way, just in a fake friendship kind of way.

"he was also without his ex-girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis. She was a frequent fixture by his side at red-carpet events for the past few years." First, a couple of corrections. skanknalis was a publicity contract escort who was supposed to have helped George promote his movies, and the contract lasted less than two years. It was an unmitigated disaster, of course. George even just had a quote recirculated of him saying that promoting movies leaves him feeling unclean. At any rate, that's all in the past. It's wonderful seeing George with a genuine smile on his face and having a good time meeting his fans.

Oh, what a good old gay life he leads.
