Well played, girl. After the rumor-mill went into overdrive on Friday after The Sun claimed George Clooney and Stacy Keibler were done, Stacy appeared in Berlin, where George has been filming The Monuments Men. These are photos of Stacy and George out to dinner in Berlin last night – I don’t know if she called them or he called them or they just showed up because Clooney’s in town and he’s always up for a good photo-op. Whatever rumor we’ve heard, George wants us to know that Stacy is still his lady. For now.
What is interesting (to me) is that George’s rep still hasn’t issued a specific denial. I’m not saying there was truth to all of the split reports – although I certainly believed them, so I was wrong too – I’m just saying that with this relationship with Stacy, whenever a breakup rumor pops up, George or Stacy will quash it publicly. Maybe George’s rep just figured “Why bother?” because Stacy was already headed to Berlin to visit, and they knew there would be photos.
Let’s see, what else… Page Six has an insider who claims that George definitely didn’t dump Stacy, period, the end. TMZ’s sources also claim they’re not done and that Stacy is still living at Clooney’s place AND they’re “currently redecorating the kitchen in their home.” So I guess Stacy is still playing it smart – not asking for anything George is unwilling to give (a ring, a baby). Looks like the Enquirer was right all along! Their story this week was all about how George “seems more drawn to her as time goes by” and how Stacy “goes off and does her own thing whenever George is spending time with his pals or is deep into a film project – she doesn’t even call him. But eventually, he starts missing her and he’s the one who calls. She lets George come to her.” Smart girl.

Does anyone really care at this point??
I find him boring really.
+1
+2
And yet all three of you clicked on it. I dig the Cloonster. He’s got humor, style, a touch of debonair and he roles how he wants too. (and he don’t like the Ange which is a plus) If I had mad money that’s the way I would do it too.
i just clicked to say tabloid reporting is unreliable (see below)–not because he’s interesting. I couldn’t care less if he’s gay, straight, or who he dates.
I really don’t care, last movie I saw him in was O Brother, but I’m board so I clicked
Well, he did dine out with Elisabetta like a day before they broke up or something, so…
I was just thinking the same thing!
it is always the same. We knew in advance that she would join him in Berlin. it’s not very spontaneous or natural all this! it’s like eli, as soon as the break approaches, the rumors are coming, and all of a sudden after weeks without seeing each other, they dine(eat), and two weeks later this is the end! there is a French mag with photos of her in berlin: it is not very cheerful! because there was just a dinner with friends and then she was alone! to be continued ….
She looks very smug in this pictures.
much less in the streets of Berlin alone
I was going to say Stacy looks smug too while George looks like he wants to climb under a rock. George likes the paps and usually smiles and waves at them. So maybe things aren’t that great. I’m just disappointed in his taste in women.
Yep. Very cocky expression on her face here.
Gawd yes; her expression rings very ‘smugly victorious’
Yes,she looks like the cat that swallowed the canary,while he looks like he’s completely pissed off.
Could it be the rumors of her pregnancy are true??
God, he’s looking old! He looks more like her father than boyfriend. George, get rid of the gray after the movie is finished filming!
+ 1 ! totally agree with you !! a father yes lol !!
Damn I’d still hit it! 😀 he looks very handsome. nom! Lol!
I think it’s the moustache that ages him more than anything. Besides doesn’t he have grayish-black hair in the first place? I’m not attracted to him but I can’t deny that he’s handsome.
I’d still hit it too, but I really assumed he’d look much younger after shaving off that dreadful beard. He looks better, and he’s still handsome as hell, but the clock hasn’t stood still. Not even for dashing, devilish George. Is that enough alliteration for you this a.m., lol?
I think Stacy has learned from the mistakes of George’s previous jump offs. She’s not pushy, she’s non-aggressive and she doesn’t run her trap to the paps. Also, has anyone considered that they might just truly like/love and care about each other? She is CERTAINLY a relief from the cloying, brainless Elisabetta Canalis, non?
She might be more brainy than Eli, or simply more ruthlessly business-minded. It looks like she’s bent on sticking to the contract and enjoy the limelight no matter what. Old George’s face is very telling, though. 🙂
This is why I don’t believe tabloid stories. They make stuff up all the time to get the public riled up.
I think that there is no smoke without fire! I would like to know the famous sources! because once the sources say ” all it’s ok” and sometimes “it is finished soon” because the sources did not say it was over but the end is near!
It’s all very nice but I wonder what it’s like to date someone with nothing down the road, just empty space, knowing you could be dumped with no warning and have to start your life all over again. I’m wondering if she carries around some kind of hope, which is why she stays.
George probably got fixed years ago, doubt there’s any baby coming.
I heard she is pregnant, that’s why.
Hmmm, there IS a blind item circulating to that effect….
I am most disturbed by the light jeans. In some other tabs, Matt Damon is with them, and also wearing light wash jeans!
Light Jeans? I know, right. But they are all the rage this year. That and the distressed jean. Funny how styles come back around.
hahaha, good one! The light jeans is a no-no in my wardrobe!
ps: Happy Saint Patrick’s Day CB*tches!
Hey, Vogue just did a spread on Canadian Tuxedos so I guess it’s now OK.
Photo op!!! Oh, Matt Damon was there too. So, it doesn’t seem a romantic dinner.
When she started “dating” George, she gave an interview saying that you have to pretend that the man is in control (something like that)…Back then I thought, you’re dumb…now George will be aware of your game!
ps: She loves the attention doesn’t, she?
i love your “ps” !!
Thanks! But I just noticed that I placed the comma after doesn’t* , it should’d been before it…Oh well.. hahaha
These photo ops to answer tabloid rumors are just so phony. So many Hollywood couples do it and it doesn’t fool anyone. Was Damon there as a chaparone or because they don’t really want to be alone together.
What does it matter what tabolids say unless you are insecure in yourself and relationship or your publicist created reputation. Publicists sure do like making their money.
They may be ‘together’ in the sense that they are in the one space, but these photos do not look to me like those of a couple who are ‘together’ in the true meaning of the word. They look completely disinterested in one another – just like they always do. There has never been the remotest hint of lust or passion in photos of these two – or indeed, of photos of George with any of his ‘for hire’ escorts.
just and good words 🙂
I totally agree with you. Well said.
I don’t see any passion or lust either but I don’t think that means anything. We only see this couple under one set of circumstances and that is they or out in the open walking down the street or at an event with paps photographing them. It is really not the appropriate time or place for passion or lust. I don’t see any passion or lust in the couples I see walking down the street. If they saw the paps and then started hugging and kissing that wouldn’t be evidence of how they felt it would be calculated. We don’t see any pictures of them in their home or really know what their relationship is like.
True, I don’t expect them to be all over each other in public – that would be tacky. But genuine sexual chemistry between a couple is unmistakable, even without resorting to public smooching. Look at any red carpet pic of Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig, and you’ll see what mean. George and Stacy just seem mildly embarrassed by one another.
Their relationship has always struck my as more of a pal / friend relationship. I still wonder if he’s not like Rock Hudson, using women as beards. Just my thoughts.
Well, I think they have a relationship where each got a benefit. Perhaps old George is getting tired also for looking a new one and figured as long as she knows the rule she could stay. She’s definitely smarter than his previous girlfriends.
I guess it would be wrong for him to dump her after she has died her hair brown for him.Has anyone else noticed that her hair has gotten darker since they’ve been dating?And he obviously told her to wear more pants and tone down the trashy make up too.
I really think as long as Stacy stands behind George quietly,does what he says and doesn’t do any interviews about him she is not going anywhere soon.That really is his perfect woman.
But…look at her face,she is not smiling like she used to.Maybe SHE is sick of being his 24 hr booty call.I would be after 2 years.
She goes to one of the best hair color guys in LA, Marco Pelusi. He’s the one behind the color change – wanted her to go for a more sophisticated look.
she did not say that these had their hair color natural?
I know this is not a popular opinion but I like them together. It seems they both know how to handle each.
I like them together too. I kind of hope they stick together. George’s rutine is getting old by now – older than him too..
I like them too. When the story about them split up came up I was like oh come on george renew the contract. lol
Gee, I’ll be able to sleep now. *major eye roll*
This whole thing is pretty predictable. First, there is tweet about coming to Berlin and picture of the inside of the plane.Oh surprise,then a photo opp at the airport and her touring Berlin without George. You know she is very independent and that is why George loves her.Another photo opp, oh yeah, that proves it ,their holding hands to dinner. Well she shot those rumors down and now she can catch the red eye home and tweet about what a beautiful weekend she had. I don’t know why he looks so annoyed in some of the pictures, he knows her tweets attract the paps. If they wanted a romantic get away, she shouldn’t have tweeted about being in Berlin- oh that’s right that is what they wanted.
you are all anderstand!! i like your comments . they work their advertising, it’s their priority but no their couple because there is no love .
That mustache is TERRIBLE.
Clooney NO. Say NO to that mustache.
Exactly what I was thinking….
There was a blind item on Blind Gossip on Friday that most people thought was about George Clooney. This is it:
This Blind Gossip story is too big for just one post, so we will be sharing bits and pieces of it with you over the next couple of weeks.
He thought he was so lucky. Big career, lots of money, big name, lots of pretty girls (famous and not) practically throwing themselves at him.
Well, Lucky Guy’s luck is about to run out! Because his latest girlfriend has a little surprise for him. It is something that will tie him to her forever. It is not something that he wanted or expected. And chances are he will find it more shocking than charming. So will you.
I wonder if they were going to break up and then she found out she was pregnant?
I thought it was rumored Clooney had a vasectomy.
Hope this one goes through since my last post didn’t.
But couldn’t that blind item be about any number of single male actors? There’s nothing there which hints that it’s about George and Stacy in particular.
I agree, that blind item could be about any celeb actor in Hollywood. He constantly says, he doesn’t want kids. I am sure he has had a vasectomy or makes sure there are layers of protection. I wouldn’t be surprised if these two haven’t had sex in months with each other. Look at the Oscar photos and these pictures of them, they are so not into each other. It looks like a chore to be together. Look at the above photos of them, she is thinking “where are the good night clubs, so I can meet some cute Berlin guys” and he is thinking, ” I got to make some notes about the script tonight.”
There’s other shocking news besides a pregnancy. STD’s and herpes spring to mind.
I think this blind item is definitely alluding to George and Stacy, but I don’t buy it at all. Like The Original Mia said, George most likely had a vasectomy so nothing like this would ever happen. Also, Blind Gossip is much like Lainey in that they act like they have the best sources and everything they post is the gospel truth. I think both sites get it right about 50% of the time (if that). I remember last year Blind Gossip put up two stories that were CLEARLY about Brad and Angelina getting married the upcoming weekend and here we are in 2013 and they still haven’t gotten married.
Blind Gossip is totally FOS; they always post blind items on Brad and Angelina that are wrong. Lainey’s are often wrong, but at least a few turn out to be true (Uma Thurman, Amy Poehler, etc). I don’t think Blind Gossip’s have ever correct; they usually try and claim a blind is right once in a while but it’s a huge stretch to fit it to a particular situation.
her make up is horrible
this is normal, there is not make up !!! lol
I seriously doubt George would take ANY chances with getting someone pregnant. If he hasn’t had a vasectomy, I wouldn’t be surprised if he is double bagging it.
I like her, don’t know why, but I do.
Me too.
I don´t get the whole playing it smart thing e.g. not asking for a ring or a baby. You know, there are actually women who don´t need to get married or have a child just to feel valued or make a statement about how serious their relationship is. Why do people always assume that all women want is marriage and a baby. It´s 2013 after all not the 1950s
Honestly, the whole “smart girl” etc. thing annoys me too. I don’t really care about either Clooney or Keibler, they can be together or single, for all I care, but I hate the fact that it’s always the woman who wants to tie the man down, she’s just a gold digger, she’s in for the money, she gets pregnant only to get the guy… Why do we always assume that just because he’s rich and famous, she can’t honestly care for the man or want to be with him, because she actually loves him? Why must a woman always be ‘smart’ and looking exclusively for the money/fame etc?
It’s obvious they have an open relationship and Stacy is the first chick he’s been with who’s really cool with that…and discreet.
No woman is “cool” with an open relationship. Some might tolerate it for a while for some perceived benefit but all are miserable.
Bit of a sweeping generalisation, don’t you think? I’ve known women in long-term open and poly relationships who find that they’re happiest that way.
Sorry, think she’s low budget as hell and he could do way better.
I know, right? I can’t get over that she used to be a WRESTLER. None of his other girlfriends was very accomplished, either. Is he one of those men who needs to date someone with a lesser job than his own?
It appears so. And not only much less accomplished, but much younger, much less wealthy, much less famous, much less EVERYTHING. Now, one of course can fall in love with someone who is not your ‘equal’ but the fact that Clooney dates a string of women who all fit into the same category – 20 or 30 something z-listers with no real claim to fame other than being his ‘girlfriend’, does make you think that he has a type – women who make him feel superior.
They make a great couple; I hope George finally makes it legal seeing as how he’s now almost 50 years old.
I agree and stop believing the Sun tabloid they are never right
Actually, he was was the Italian Queen when he turned 50, it was her last birthday with him. I think he turns 52 this year.
In my humble opinion, this photo op just proves one thing: He hasn’t found her replacement yet. *handles some Maxim to him*
😉
I’ve always felt that George has tried very hard to emulate his career after Cary Grant without the multiple marriages. I do remember Cary had a daughter in his late 50s/early 60s. I could see the same thing happening to George. My best guess is that George got a vasectomy a long time ago. I can’t believe George would be as adamant as he has been on his lack of desire for a family without doing something about it. The way he dates, I would think he knows darn well that a girl could easily block the goalie and be tied to him forever.
I’ve always said, out of all the girlfriends George has had thus far, Stacy is by far my favorite. She’s played it smart by building a nest egg for herself, using George to make her own name known, and building a career as an actress. I think a lot of the others thought they could look cute and their names would be known forever. I would not be surprised if she plays it smart with George and has figured out how to keep herself desirable to him. I doubt they will last forever (although I’d love to hear about her being the one that finally bagged Clooney) but I do think Stacy may have the power to milk it for another couple of awards seasons which is a feat in and of herself.
Also, how do we know for sure that Stacy wants kids and to be married? Something tells me, she may share George’s lack of desire for a family and sees no need to get married. The only time I’ve heard any mention she wants a family is from the gossip circuit which is unreliable. I can say with certainty that she would not have lasted very long if she wanted kids and a family.
I read something (maybe it was a blind item) that Dancing With The Stars wanted her for their All Star show and she was really interested and excited to do it. George vetoed the idea, though, so she declined. Then at the Oscars, I was watching some interview that the two of them gave, and Stacy went to answer some question and George beat her to it. It was almost like he didn’t want her to speak, so she just stood there. To me, it doesn’t sound like she’s living her own life.
He should stick with her. His pool of candidates is surely getting smaller since every woman knows as soon as the ink is dry she’s temporary. He needs them young, beautiful, mute, fawning, less famous than he, willing to beard. Any woman who buys in on this is hardly empowered.
He doesn’t seem interested in her at all! Sometimes he even acts like he really dislikes her!
When they are interviewed together on the red carpet he is so rude to her sometimes.
Cuts her off, answers questions that were meant for her, makes jokes about her that are borderline mean.
He barely even looks at her.
Yes, passive aggressive anger at having her around maybe? My guess is that they were both pretty done with this business arrangement after the oscars but the Star kept pushing the issue and George is a control freak who won’t be pushed, so he extended the contract. What else is he gonna do, just go fishing for another just like her? Anyway the general consensus is that she is the best beard of the bunch, pretty, smart and discreet.
Best beard of the bunch.
Lol, good definition, candigirl.
He always made those jokes to any of his girlfriends of__________. At least, he brings these ones to the red carpet, unlike Krista Allen who waited for him in the limo when he won his first Oscar. Poor Krista…
Cool! Glad their still on! like him without the beard.
But the beard is still there. Right there by his side, with a slick of red lipstick.
Sorry, couldn’t resist!
Hahahahahahaha…High five, Christina!
I don’t think he’s gay..maybe bi…but is obvious to me that these two do not have sex. I really don’t know what her purpose is to him…if he’s going to hire a contracted escort….hire someone you genuinely like and can at least have a intelligent conversation with. He barely tolerates her and nobody buys they are a “real” couple. I don’t think she is getting much out of it careerwise. I don’t get the whole dynamic between them.
hahaha! Take that celebitches, and that and that … got a little too excited there, but go George and Stacy! You crazy kids can show the world that lust can become love, and the most cynical illusion can become the most startling reality if the woman is sufficiently clever and the man is just noble enough. Redemption! This is awesome! Don’t even come with the yawns! You know you are burning!
Nice photo op!
OK, I was a bit surprised too of how ready people were to believe the breakup story given the source, but you watched Pretty Woman one too many times. ps What’s a cynical illusion?
He’s probably too lazy to find a new contract escort. She’s probably proving to be less of a pain in the A than Sarah or Elizabetta, so why not keep her on the payroll?
Geez Stacy, we get it, smug much?
The Monuments Men is getting Oscar buzz so maybe Clooney is thinking there’s not enough time to get a new one. . . maybe ride it out with her for another year.
It’s so darn cold in middle/north Europe right now. How she can survive with those shoes and no socks puzzles me…
