This week’s In Touch Weekly cover story is all about naked photos and the scandals they will unleash or have already unleashed. But if you look in the left-hand corner, you’ll see a small photo of Amal Alamuddin and her “baby bump.” Back in August, there were some other photos of Amal making the rounds and some people claimed she had a “baby bump” – although I thought it just looked like an optical illusion and the “bump” was in reality her hip.
I also said that I had always believed that George Clooney had gotten a vasectomy years ago so that no girlfriend could ever surprise him with an “oopsie!” But vasectomies can be reversed and… I don’t know, maybe. Maybe Amal IS pregnant. In Touch basically says that nothing has been confirmed but Amal does have a “fuller belly” (pasta baby?) and Amal “has that pregnancy glow.” Sure. Why not? For what it’s worth (not much), Clooney’s rep went to E! to deny the pregnancy rumor. Maybe he hasn’t reversed his vasectomy yet?
Shotgun wedding theories aside, do you think this is going to be the weekend when George and Amal finally get hitched? Eh. Maybe it will be mid-September after all. Page Six spoke to George’s publicist Stan Rosenfield about all of the gossip surrounding the wedding. Stan dismissed the reports that Clooney had invited Pres. Obama, saying: “The president was not invited. He has more important things to do.” And outlets are still reporting that Anna Wintour will be there and she will feature the wedding photos in Vogue, including Amal’s Oscar de la Renta wedding gown. Oh, and E! reported a few days ago that George is “very hands on” with the wedding plans. Bridezilla Clooney!
Last thing – yesterday, THR announced George Clooney’s next directorial project: Hack Attack, a film based on the Rupert Murdoch hacking scandal which, for the record, is still on-going because of various criminal and civil trials. While I think the Murdoch scandal is a worthy subject for a film (preferably a documentary series), I tend to think Clooney helming this project will end up a self-serving nightmare. Ugh.

i hope pea in the pod makes floral jeans
LOL!
+1 lol. I can’t wait for her pregnancy fashion. *starts heading to the popcorn aisle*
Lol, and eyelet tops.
So funny!
Has US Weekly gotten anything right lately? They got scooped by the AP and tried to run some ridic stories about the Brange wedding. I doubt this woman is pregnant. And if she is it’s no one’s business.
Looks down at own stomach. I am having sketti twins also. Sketti babies for everyone! You get a sketti baby, and you get a sketti baby!
LOL love this.
I seriously doubt that Clooney would have a vasectomy reversed. He has enough daily pain, I would think… not to want to have that ball pain all over again.
Most men have swimmers put on ice. In case they decide later, that a biological child would be a goal.
And I just don’t see this girl willingly getting pregnant before marriage. She has played a very effective campaign, to cheapen it with a stunt.
jeez do the magazines feel their own biological clock ticking or something? They seem in a hurry.
If the wedding will be soon, she probably had a dermatologist do some skin treatments in prep for it the past couple of weeks.
Maybe not a biological clock, but rather election clock. Almost time to start promoting the married, settled down family man image for Clooney.
Yep–a reformed playboy ready to lead the world with all his worldly knowledge!!
This chic is just NOT all that and a bag of chips like she thinks she is! That’s all I got, chicas.
Has she given interviews saying she is all that? I don’t think she has given a single statement or interview. On the contrary she deleted her twitter so I would say no one really knows what she is really like. You must be referring to clooney PR machine and gossip mags take on her. That is quite a different matter.
Hannah
I tend to agree. Here’s why. She’s going out of her way for pap walks. She’s not always covered as much because she doesn’t sell copies as the main story. She is frequently seen at pap heavy locals though wearing crazier outfits since engaged.
I can shut out interviews and delete social media, but still draw attention to myself if I wanted. There isn’t 1 form of boasting.
Uh, her law firm was the one who announced their engagement, and she regularly does pap walks dressed like an overgrown preschooler. George’s PR overdrive isn’t helping things, either.
Vasectomy’s can be reversed but you can’t reverse getting your tubes tied?
They can reverse/untie themselves so to speak. I know a couple of post tube tied babies. Their parents said they were done after two or three kids and 5-10 yrs later Surprise!
Yes. Roseanne Barr did it. She had her tubes untied when she was married to Tom Arnold.
I just gotta say, Kim K. Was not the person to put in the center of that picture on the cover. Duh. Her pr team has really convinced somebody to forget how she got famous.
Right? Her pics haven’t been released and she’s not the one being humiliated right now. Her past stuff was willingly released by her. There’s no need to make her the face of this scandal. As if she would care if nudes were released anyway.
Exactly have you seen her GQ spread,she needs to get her mouth shut.
When you said GQ ‘spread’ I thought you meant something else for a moment and it gave me waking nightmares!
No. Kim got put front and center because she sells issues. Be it for trashing or adoring she is in demand. This comment is a perfect example of how people don’t want her to go away. There would have to be another person to take her place before that happens. Until then if you care enough to comment you care enough to pay attention to the mag.
Thread jacking for another Kim comment. I wold think people despise her enough to ignore her at this point. I base this on how many people wish she’d go away and say so, but never miss a chance to talk about her.
All I can say is I hope he paid Michelle Pfeiffer on the bet he had with her cause he definitely lost!
He lost? Really? When did he get married?
Kim, he is losing. He is going to marry later this month.
Everything about this woman seems to get on my nerves.
I’m in love with Amal. Education is a turn on, I have a true girl crush. I love that she’s not plasticky faced and wears dorky clothes. It’s supah doubtful that she’s pregnant, but she does look really happy. However, if my lover had “back pains” that might be red flag as this condition ages people pretty quickly. The yoga culture can be annoying, but it’s a way to stave off and or heal up spine issues. Maybe he should have married Hilaria?
Yes, Hilaria would yoga him back in shape. Too bad for GC, Baldwin beat him.
George could have married his previous GF. She would have ‘wrestled’ him back in shape. lol
If Clooney’s rep nixed this rumor, then what’s the point here? Though I did have a friend who’s husband went in for a vasectomy and they still managed to get pregnant, so…
I never get the whole “Oooooooooh, pregnancy glow!” thing (and I’m someone who works with pregnant people a *lot*). When I was pregnant, the only “glow” I had was a flushed face from morning sickness..and afternoon sickness…and evening sickness…
I so don’t think she’s pregnant. Maybe wore a poorly chosen outfit that made someone think she had a “fuller” (still looks pretty dang flat to me) belly but I doubt she’s pregnant, esp as Clooney likely was very firm about not wanting kids and not even playing that game (I suspect that’s why he and Stacey Kiebler broke up–she wanted kids).
Oh Im so with you! What bloody glow, when I am sick all hours! Im looking and all Im seeing is a green face. Blargh! 😀
I think she keeps wearing poorly chosen outfits that do make you think she’s preggers. We’ll see.
Clooney was also firm about not ever getting married again.
It doesn’t matter if King George got a vasectomy. As a great scientist once said, “If there is one thing the history of evolution has taught us it’s that life will not be contained…”
Jeff Goldblum knows his sh**.
lol!
LOL. So true, and don’t forget that Sam Neill backed up his claim. “Malcolm was right”; yes indeed he was!
I’d be shocked if Amul is pregnant though; maybe they love each other but I’m still finding the whole thing odd. Of course GC could be like some men who swear they don’t have a desire to settle down until they get old, parents pass, friends are too busy with kids and grand kids, etc. Then they realize they don’t have the type of support and comfort that marriage can bring, and boom, they marry the next person that comes along.
This couple doesn’t interest me one bit. The guy has no experience with long term relationships. This won’t be any different. I feel like he is with her because as he ages, he wants to switch to politics and has become sensitive regarding all the jokes about his serial bimbogamy. I give it two years, tops.
Love the “serial bimbogamy” comment!!
I think he is also starting to feel lonely, seeing Matt and Brad and others with wife and kids.
My pet theory is that they won’t have kids, and one of the reasons that George is marrying Amal is that she doesn’t wants kids either.
Getting married doesn’t really put a dent in the “carefree” lifestyle that George appears to like, if your partner wants the same. But having kids definitely puts a dent in the grown-up good times (unless, of course, you plan to have the nanny raise them). And I think George is honest with himself and his partners about what kind of lifestyle he wants to have (since I’m privy to his inner thoughts…).
The other girlfriends almost always eventually made baby noises to the press or didn’t have much going on for themselves professionally — so having a baby would have been a good hook into George. Amal’s got her own life and profession, and she may not want to change it by having kids. So I’m guessing that he feels safer getting married to someone who isn’t going to try to cajole him into fatherhood.
+1 ^^^This^^^
He’s stored his seed.
He’s changed his long standing choice to never marry again almost overnight. I think a baby (just as a wife with a great international job) will promote this political dreams. This theory has been around for ages. That 1 day Clooney will suddenly drop the clist arm candy and settle down to be taken seriously as a canidate.
I will not be shocked if they start talking babies.
Thankfully, Democrats are more evolved. You don’t have to have a baby or two to be electable. That’s the Republican family values playbook, wife and a brood of kids and talk about faith a lot.
FLORC, I see your point, but I think I’m with Jayna on this one. If George got married and had kids, I don’t know that it would make him any more attractive to the voters who would already consider him a viable candidate. And I’m not sure that it makes a difference one way or the other to most of the independent swing vote if he’s got a ring on his finger.
And If he wanted to pander to the more conservative quarters, marrying a British-Lebanese lawyer who has represented controversial clients would be the worst choice he could make. Even if he married a nice Midwestern schoolteacher who bakes cookies for the church bazaar, he’d never get the more conservative voters without changing his politics, so they wouldn’t be a factor in his percentages anyway.
+1000 What Malificent said.
Why can’t people see that this woman he chose is a awful choice politically in the US politics? Some of the people she represented are enemy’s of the US. She won’t fly in US politics no matter how educated she is.
“Hack Attack” is a really stupid movie title.
I was going to say the same. Can’t they come up with something better? Something that doesn’t sound like a six year old’s idea?
I believe that one of the main reasons why he’s gonna marry this particular woman, is ,that she DOESN’T want children. I could imagine them travelling a lot to ‘crisis places’, maybe even set up a foundation together, him going more into documentaries etc. I don’t think he wants to be an absent father, and his health condition is not good. So no, I don’t think she’s pregnant. And Amal…well, time will tell if she really picks up her job again, or just follows him around doing a little ‘here and there’ work. I just hope he doesn’t put her in his next movie, as a human rights lawyer, of course 🙂
He is making a movie about Rupert Murdoch, I guess all things English.
Except old Rupe is Australian.
old rupe gave up his australian citizenship and became an us citizen so he buy stuff in the states years and years ago
