George Clooney has not completely replaced Stacy Keibler yet. And that’s weird, and it’s unlike him. Usually he gets a new girl within one year of a big breakup. There are significant rumors that Clooney is dating Julian Assange’s hot lawyer, Amal Alamuddin, but she’s got a real job and I would suspect that she’s not in a position where she can jet off to Lake Como for the summer. So why hasn’t Clooney replaced Stacy Keibler with yet another B-list or C-list model/waitress/wrestler? Is it because he’s still sort of pining away for Stacy and he’s upset that she’s moved on so quickly?
STACY KEIBLER stuck it to George Clooney, one of Hollywood’s hottest hunks, by getting hitched just eight months after their split!
Former WWE star Stacy, 34, and tech entrepreneur Jared Pobre, 39, tied the knot in an intimate sunset beach wedding in Mexico on March 8. The shocking nuptials came as a surprise even to family members who were vacationing with the gorgeous couple.
“It was a revenge wedding of sorts,” a source revealed to The ENQUIRER. “Stacy stuck it to George to show him that he lost out on a great wife…and now she’s rubbing his face in it.”
In a post-wedding interview, the overjoyed new bride gushed about her relationship.
“Marriage is the ultimate bond of love and friendship,” she said. “It means putting all your faith and trust into a person that you can’t help but believe is your soul mate. Someone who has all of your best interests at heart – someone handpicked for you, to help you grow and be the best person that you can be. Jared is all of this for me.”
An insider says the news of his former flame’s wedding shocked the dashing “Monuments Men” star. “Typically, when George ends a relationship, his brokenhearted exes go through a period of pining over him and trying to win him back,” said the source. “But that just wasn’t the case with Stacy. She walked away from him and never looked back.
“Stacy began dating Jared within days after her split with George – and that really struck an emotional nerve with him.”
The 52-year-old bachelor has dated a long list of beautiful women, including Krista Allen, Lisa Snowdon, Sarah Larson and Elisabetta Canalis. He and Stacy began dating in August 2011, but the two called it quits just two years later, reportedly because Stacy was anxious to start a family. Stacy denied that, and a well-placed source told The ENQUIRER that they broke up because of Stacy’s fitness obsession.
Stacy has known Jared – the CEO of Future Ads, a private digital media firm he started in 2001 – for over five years. Their friendship quickly blossomed into romance when Stacy found herself suddenly single last summer.
“George was aware that Stacy didn’t waste any time finding a new guy after they split up,” the source said, “but it served as an enormous blow to his ego that she could fall out of love with him and in love with someone else so quickly. He was floored when he heard the news.”
I could see how the “revenge wedding” storyline could be played, but I think this was more like a shotgun wedding after Stacy got knocked up by the first dude she dated post-Clooney. Now, do I think that Stacy actually did play the breakup really well? Yes, she did. And do I think that Clooney might be a little nostalgic? Sure. But let’s face it – there’s a long line of women in their late 20s/early 30s who would be perfectly willing to hop on the Clooney Train. Especially since the train comes with A) a clothing budget, B) professional stylists at your beck and call, C) lots of media attention, D) vacations at Lake Como and E) some minor work, whatever Clooney can get for you. Ashley Greene, here’s your chance!

Hahhah, I would hazard a no.

There is a blind on CDAN that hints that someone else is the baby’s daddy. I know, I know, take it with a grain of salt, but sometimes those pesky rumors end up being true (Hello John Edwards!).
The guess is that the kid dad is Geoff Stults.
I repeat. You decide.
She was a well treated escort. I seriously doubt either one cared romantically about the other. The old FWB thing, but Stacy got paid.
George has moved on with Amal. It was said in some french mag that they are in Dubai together.
I bet George is happy he wasn’t the guy who got snared by Stacy. He probably sent JARED flowers!
Hhahah I think he would too!
I feel sure that she was an Escort. Really. Like a professional hooker. How else could a female wrestler have accumulated so many powerful guy friends over the years?? Shes known this techie for 5 years and Clooney claimed to have known her for years too. How the hell was she moving in these circles?
I think she was a hooker looking to retire and now she has. I wonder why everyone else isnt seeing it.
Really guys? Calling someone a hooker just because she’s willing to be in a relationship with a guy for a few years?
I don’t think she was a hooker, but I guess you never know. I grew up in Baltimore and she used to be a Ravens cheerleader and I know she also taught dance lessons and worked at dance camps back in the late 90s early 00s. I am not sure how she got the connections that she has though.
Plenty of women marry for money. Why is being a girlfriend for money different? Hardly the same thing as a woman who (by choice/force/circumstances) earns money through frequent sexual contact with strangers.
are they for real?
Clooney is not pining over Stacey. Come on.
Not Even for a Second, that man is drowning in servers and faux models and pseudointellectuals and 2nd and 3rd tier actresses Pussy til his dying day
To quote Frank Ocean: What’s a King to a God (spoiler alert: NOTHING)
Agreed! Clooney has been through this so many times–does anyone REALLY take his relationships seriously? He flaunts his new girls around to events and such, then a few more pictures are taken, then fewer, then after a year or two, they’re over….I’m still not convinced that Clooney isn’t gay, but whatever he is or isn’t, I think these relationships are not meant to be long term to begin with, and both parties have agreed to these conditions…..so, no, I do not think these are real relationships he has and there are never any hard feelings afterward, because he gets something and they get things in exchange……
She wasn’t “sticking” it to George just because she moved on and found someone else. “A blow to his ego?” – “Rubbing his face in it?” LOL – this article is beyond ridiculous. George could care less that one of his ex-girlfriends got married.
He might even be happy for her.
In order for George to be upset, it would have had to have been a real relationship. Which it was not. I don’t know if she was his beard or his paid girlfriend or whatever but I think she knew it was a short term gig and made the best of it. I respect that she didn’t go around whining after it ended. So now she’s pregnant by a millionaire? Best wishes, Stacey dear. Well played, well played.
Why would he feel hurt by the marriage of someone he paid to he his escort, and whose contract he terminated the second he thought their “relationship” had played out?
I’m sure this “OMG George was so HURT by Stacy’s marriage!” drivel was released by whomever poses as HER PR person (probably herself).
agreed and the reference to “revenge wedding” would actually be indicative that she isn’t over Clooney. If you’ve actually moved on, you get married b/c you want to marry the other person – you don’t do it hoping to stick it to an ex & show him what he’s lost out on
George is a drunk who probably doesn’t even remember who Stacy is. She’s part of one of his many black-out phrases.
I agree with K on how well Stacy handled the break up and the whole fake relationship. She’s trashy and ignorant but she played her part very nicely.
Lol….he doesnt give a rat’s ass about her wedding.
My mother has a tremendous crush on George Clooney and uses him as the standard of all handsome men
(i.e. He’s no George Clooney)
Therefore, I am sick of him and his face
Oh my god…my mom does the same thing and it drives me nuts! Now if she said “the man is no Brad Pitt”, I would kind of be on board, though in my head I would replace “Brad Pitt” with “Tom Hiddleston” (my silly, fun celebcrush).
But Clooney? Nope. I never found him attractive.
I laughed aloud at this as I side with your mom ( and am probably around the same age, LOL). That, and this makes me think of something my daughter would say.
Elise?
Pick one:
A. George Clooney could care less about Stacy’s shotgun wedding.
B. George Clooney could not care less about Stacy’s shotgun wedding.
Given that I doubt he gives two pellets in a rat’s —, I’m going to go out on a limb here and pick choice B.
B
I choose B as well.
Clever! 🙂
Ha! Doesn’t it drive you crazy that in general, a lot of people say A, but they mean B! Pet peeve.
It’s like people saying ‘He did a 360 on the issue’ when they really mean ‘180’. 360 is all the way around and facing the same direction as before..
I’m a go against the grain kinda flower and I’m picking C. Which is both A and B.
I think their relationship was over privately before it was publicly, they both got what they wanted out of it, and they both moved on. I don’t see either one harboring bad feelings for the other.
+ 1, I doubt either is worrying about the other.
I tend to agree, except her marriage comments were pointed and weird. So I sort of think those might have been for George, but maybe in a more general, you’re-missing-out kind if way?
Yes it was over at least 4 months before being announced. He was allegedly seeing Eva Longoria before PUBLICLY breaking with Stacy and Stacy was seeing? Probably this guy! 🙂
was Eva Longoria’s “story” NOT another RP stunt to hide his homosexuality? because if Stacy was his beard,what was Longoria? for a gay guy,Clooney has sex with many women
(my guess is that he’s bisexual)
It is rotten to Jared to make his wedding all about George. I am sure they both just moved on and are fine.
LOL, that story was nonsense. Stacy knew exactly what she was getting into, and I doubt she ever fell in love. Well, she may have fallen in love with fancy dresses and red carpets, but she and Clooney never appeared to have any special connection. And I would guess that he’s like, “Good for her.” Or maybe even, “Dodged a bullet!” I’m happy for her, and I’ll bet you anything George sent her flowers or something. I’m sure her husband would feel insulted at the notion of his wedding being some sort of revenge for George Clooney.
+1
Very disrespectful to Jared and Stacy.
Based on previous relationships, the new girlfriend makes her debut at his home in Italy. So there’s time. Personally I doubt Clooney cares. He doesn’t strike me as the type to care after the break-up.
Is Jared the one she was supposedly seeing when being with George? They definitely had a contract. So funny that he is now with this lawyer woman and there’s no official photo of them together, not to mention that she didn’t attend a movie premiere yet.
Maybe his ego.But no i dont think he woke up today thinking..Shit Stacy. Nahh
Clooney probably doesn’t care.
Anyone else think he’s gay? His relationships smack of The Beard Train. How was it that Stacy started dating this new guy, got pregnant and married so fast? She probably met him while under contract, and hooked up with him as soon as it was over.
Yes….
Absolutely.
I really don’t think he’s gay. He strikes me as a middle age man with health issues that are probably more serious than reported. George looks like shit most of the time these days, unless it’s official PR. My guess is that he wants available and exclusive arm candy at his beck and call, treats the candy very well and occasionally tastes the treat.
@Punky: A few interviews with his former girlfriends could be taken as him having health issues rather than gay. So you are not the only one thinking there’s more to the story than what everyone assumes.
What kind of health issues?
Vanessa, during the filming of Syriana, I believe he broke some vertebrate in his back and they didn’t heal properly. He has said before the pain was so intense that he considered suicide.
He does look like sh-t most of the time. I think he’s a drunk but the drinking may now be combined with pills to help his pain.
That would only add to his health probs.
Yes. Even if she’d met new guy 5 years ago, as they’re saying, they were probably more than acquaintances, and were probably waiting for the end of the contract. George is not “hurt” in the least – everybody got what they wanted. She was just smarter than the previous ones – prepared for the end. The others seem to have been lulled into a stupor and acted baffled at the end of their deals.
Right. I think she knew a relationship with him would greatly increase her visibility, and she maximized that and now has a little career to show for it. She got what she wanted.
I heard years ago- when he was on ER- that he was gay. It was just a rumor through a gay friend. Of course he told me John travolta was gay too… And he was right about that.
I doubt he cares.
I think ‘relieved’ is probably more accurate….
Serves him right. He thinks he’s all that, and when a woman he dated dares to have a life after him he gets hurt? Whatever George.
HAHAHAHA! If anything, he might be annoyed that marrying someone else so quickly makes their relationship look suspect. I doubt he cares beyond that.
^^this
He had zero chemistry with her and the girlfriend he seemed obviously not into compared to all the others. She was just willing to be his companion and put up with how little he cared. Why would her wedding mean a thing to him? They were over long before it was announced.
Two full grown adults in a consensual relationship for a couple of years. She wasn’t kidnapped and was hardly some poor pitiful little welp. She got to meet people she would probably otherwise never have met, travel first class and from what folks saw, got treated very well. Just compare how she looked when they started dating and how she looks now. I remember when this blog laughed at how tacky she looked and how she gradually changed into this glamorous, sophisticated looking woman with some confidence. So, both got what they wanted out of the two years. He has moved on (and never wanted marriage or children and I think she knew this) and she has what she wants, so seems like a win win to me . George may annoy me at times and he can be very full of himself, but he has always been up front with his expectations with relaitonships, so I don’t see him being the least bit upset about her new life.
Exactly! I don’t get the hate for his choices. He’s up front with the women. They aren’t going in with stars in their eyes.
He’s probably happy for her.

I agree. It seems he isn’t promising them more than he wants to offer. I don’t think she was taken advantage of.
I think George hasn’t officially replaced Stacy yet, because he realized his two-year contracts with pretty youngish things were starting to have a negative impact on his image. Time to become a bit more low-key in that area of his life for a while (which doesn’t mean he wasn’t all kinds of fun privately, he was just making sure no one knew about it)…
I am still laughing at the burn Tina Fey and Amy Poehler gave him at the Golden Globe’s about his character in Gravity.
That was one of the most beautiful and perfect examples of shade I’ve ever seen! They nailed the soft spot in the armor, but still made it funny. Lesser comedians wouldn’t have pulled it off.
Even better was their reply when he tried to get them back with the Matt Damon letter.
+1
You are right. This behavior absolutely hurt him with his core fans.
True and this site is a perfect example of that. When Clooney was with Stacy or any of the other girlfriends people on this site didn’t like him but since he split with Stacy and has yet to publicly replaced her people on this site are in love with him again.
I agree completely! This strategy worked for awhile because people accepted the relationships at face value, and George could have his fun while presenting a more wholesome face to the masses. Now that people are beginning to see the pattern, it’s not a useful cover up anymore, and I think we’ll see him changing his strategy (I think he’ll go for a more low key public image when not promoting things, and that we’ll mostly see him sitting with his cast mates when he’s at awards shows).
Yup. You nailed it: he’s looking to change it up. It’s ALL about image.
George Clooney doesn’t give a fig’s ass about Stacy Keibler, her wedding, or her silly husband. I doubt he even gives a flying fart about her pregnancy, either.
Honestly, I really sincerely doubt that George Clooney cares.
I envision it like this:
Friend of George: ” hey did ya hear that Stacy got Married?”
George: ” Stacy who?”
LOL
Oddly, I think Stacey was the best fit for him out of all his relatively unknown but vaguely pretty younger girlfriends. If there was one who might’ve broken through Stacey was it. George probably found her fertility pills and ended things.
I think the only regret George has is that she maneuvered her new relationship, marriage and pregnancy in a way that makes him look “insignificant” to Stacy. And makes people write stories like this. After all, George is always supposed to be the user, not the usee! I’m sure on an emotional level, they never cared about each other.
I doubt he gave it much thought. What is more interesting is a fitness obsession being the cause of the breakup.
Sounds like wishful thinkng to me.
He doesn’t care because he likes men. ;)) Next topic.
Sorry dearie…he’s into women and lots of them and has no intention of settling for just one…that doesn’t make him gay, most men would love to have his little black book and there aren’t any dudes in there! You’re either wishful thinking or are you just bitter?
If there is a word that means no only with more no in it, that would be my answer.
Where do I buy tickets for the Clooney Train? Mama needs a new wardrobe!
I don’t think George is a heartless dirtbag like so many others do. I just don’t think he wants to get married. If and when he meets someone he can’t live without that might change but until then he will continue his playboy ways.
As for caring about Stacy getting married – doubt it. He may miss her a bit but not enough to go off the deep end. Not his style.
Oh George, I’d love to see you with a talented sexy actress like Robin Wright, for i.e. since you’ve said you don’t want kids, she has two adult children and is a talented, classy and successful actress by her own. Why you keep taking arm pieces?
Card on flowers that George sent Stacy:
CONGRATULATIONS!
I just heard about your wedding and that you’re expecting. That’s terrific. I wish you both the best!
P.S. Don’t EVER bring that smelly, squalling kid to my house.
Love HRH George I
Oh please. Clooney is gay and she was his escort.
He regrets nothing. I think they’re all contract fauxmances.
Now, you know who plays an awesome break-up game? Simon Cowell. I’m not sure if he’s making sure they stay quiet or what, but he gave one of his ex-GF’s a million bucks as a parting gift. NICE!
1- Girlfriend knew what she would get with George. Since she gave an interview back in 2005 or 2008 saying she would love to be involved in a engagement gossip with George
2- She used him as much as he used her. Both got what they wanted from their “relationship”.
3- Before an official split, There were rumours George was seeing Monika something (Croatian woman who lives in England). I doubt George was hurt
4- For months prior the official split, Stacy looked grumpy, sad and upset, writing her usual cryptic messages on twitter, which makes me believe they were finito way before the official split. So, she didn’t move on few days after the split (yes, there may be an overlap, but George was probably having someone on the side too).
5- She also went several times to Cabo while dating George, even brought her friends and apparently stayed at his house there.
6- Why do I know all this stuff?! argh!
Yes, there was def overlap. They were dunzo in private so she moved on.
Said it before, say it now, George call me. I’m mature, intelligent, attractive, funny and forgiving. Let’s hang out on the lake together.
I don’t think the lack of a girlfriend is because he’s pining for Stacy. I think it’s because he’s figured out that people are onto him, and that the rent-a-girlfriends are hurting his image more than they’re helping it. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see him take his personal life more low key in the future.
And maybe a HW backlash from his female peers. Didn’t he say in the past, women should get better roles in movies, etc? So, why he dates and, consequently, promotes z lists celebs with very little talent ? Meanwhile, so many talented artists dream to have 1/4 of the media coverage his girlfriends get.
If I were the new husband I’d be so thrilled to read how she only married him to get to George.
Hope he’s got a good prenup.
This is a hillarious article. It’s right up there with Leo talking about how a girl’s personality is what he’s really interested in. LOL
Raise the gold shovel in triumph, Stacey!
lol
I would be shocked if he gave two whits about her marriage, and that’s yet another reason why I love him. He moves on.
My guess is that he wishes her well and hopes that she’s happy. I don’t think he’s a grudge holder and I don’t think he’s sitting around wondering if he made a mistake.
I could see it – not that he’s pining for her, but that he’s accustomed to his women taking a while to move on. This one moved on quickly, and maybe it wounds his ego a bit, even though he does not want to be with her.
Hurt? No, but I think he might’ve been a bit rueful. I think they were actually a very good fit, and if she’d been a little older (HA!) or had no desire to get married and have children, their relationship could’ve lasted a long time.
What I’m not hearing anyone say is…Stacy got married because she was pregnant! THAT in and of itself…may be why she got married so quickly. Perhaps if there wasn’t a pregnancy…she’d still be single! I love George…and NO, I don’t think he’s gay at all. He just likes women as companions…sexual partners…and escorting him where ever he roams… Thousands of men operate JUST LIKE HIM…and they aren’t labeled GAY! I think he’ll eventually settle down. Most men tend to settle down once the age sets in and they realize they’re not the studs they used to be. I hope he finds someone special in his life that makes him want to settle down. I think he is the kind of man who would wish Stacy well…and harbor no ill feelings toward her. He’s classy that way.
For a woman who spent the past two years saying she wasn’t interested in marriage…she was pretty predictable. I bet with a buddy she’d find herself a rich investment banker, marry, have 21/2 kids and then divorce him when her financial future was secure. I wasn’t too far off.
I think when her “career” didn’t take off even with ol George on her arm, she realized she had to move in a different direction. And, who else finds the “we’ve been friend’s for years” schtick a pile of…?
I never respond to threads like this, but reading some of these comments I had to. I agree with Hootysgram. George isn’t gay. He just likes the company of young beautful women. Some people just don’t want marriage and kids. It’s not for everybody. At least he’s honest about it. I respect Clooney eventhough I’m not a fan of his films becuase they are long and bore me (except for Intolerable Cruelty).
This is mean, but she was so budget when she was first unveiled. She’s come a long way.
^Lak, that’s not “mean”. This would be truth with anyone you picked out of nowhere and gave them access to hair, glam squad, and designer gowns. Everyone would look “better”, but it’s not reality. She’s not dressing like that everyday just to do normal everyday things. Women have this “Cinderella” fantasy and it just isn’t real. Even Cinderella turned back to “normal” when the clock stroke midnight (back to her reality).
I don’t think so. Why are they making up this kind of story? George must be happy that she has moved on. Stacy is the one that does not look happy.
LOL… classic… I dont think either care at all…. George had enough and has moved on to another woman for his arm candy, Stacey has moved on, found herself a man she can actually have a pizza and beer with….. Good luck to them both i say…. more to come on The Clooney Dating show!! 🙂
