Clooney Offer Looks Like a Million Bucks
George Clooney has a proposal guaranteed to raise the eyebrow of Dr. Evil.
The Oscar-winner says he'll give one meeelion dollars to anyone who can prove he or a veteran Hollywood techie is responsible for making YouTube stars of Lily Tomlin and writer/director David O. Russell.
In variations of two clips seen 'round the blogosphere, Tomlin and Russell experience creative differences of the invective-hurling, desk-clearing variety on the set of 2004's I Heart Huckabees.
"Any rumor that either of us put it on the [I]nternet is simply false," Clooney wrote of he and sound-mixer Ed Tise in a letter Thursday to Radar and Defamer.
Defamer put the spotlight on the You Tube-posted Huckabees clips. Radar linked Clooney's name to the story.
"Sources told Radar that Clooney...was the one circulating the clip," the magazine reported on its Website on Wednesday.
The way Radar presented it, Clooney potentially had both the motive and the access, with the motive being Clooney himself clashed with Russell on the set of 1999's Three Kings, and the access being Tise, who worked on Huckabees and currently is working on Clooney's latest film, Leatherheads.
Clooney publicist Stan Rosenfield told Radar that the notion his client was moonlighting as a 'Net instigator was "preposterous."
"He doesn't know how to put a video on YouTube," Rosenfield told the magazine. "He barely knows how to email."
In Clooney's own letter, the actor-director points out that the footage of Tomlin and Russell, especially the "f---ing c--t"-spewing Russell, losing their tempers on the soundstage is nothing new.
"I saw it when we were working on Ocean's 12," Clooney wrote, referencing his 2004 caper flick, "and there have been quite a few copies traveling around town for the last couple of years."
Clooney tagged the letter, with its guarantee/challenge of "a million bucks," with a convivial, "Your fan, George Clooney."
Russell reportedly once made his own high-priced offer regarding Clooney. Make that, the filmmaker reportedly once turned down a high-priced offer regarding Clooney. Hypothetically, speaking.
"I wouldn't make another George Clooney movie if they paid me $20 million," Russell has been quoted as saying.
No word if Russell would try to prove Clooney wrong for $1 million.
