We normally think of heroes as people like George Washington and pioneers as the kind of folks who navigated the Mississippi on flimsy rafts. As for George Clooney, he thinks of buddies Brangelina.

Lucky for him, Time magazine agrees and named the couple among its 100 Most Influential People in the "Heroes and Pioneers" category. The mag even gave Clooney the opportunity to write a little essay about what Brad and Angelina mean to him, which is ridiculously cute. Kinda like asking a sweet old widow to write an ode to her cats.

“There are hundreds of people who could be honored for their good works, but I've seen Brad and Angelina firsthand, and their commitment together is truly impressive,” Clooney writes.

We have to agree: We’d listen to the gorgeous couple say anything. Good thing for the world they’re saying something worthwhile.
