George Clooney Got Dumped In The Most Insane Way

[Blind Gossip] There is a new movie coming out soon that stars Ben Affleck and is directed by his good friend, George Clooney.

The movie is titled The Tender Bar.

Ben Affleck and George Clooney have worked together before, most notably on Argo, which won the Oscar for Best Picture back in 2013. Affleck starred in the movie, and it was produced by Affleck, Clooney and his frequent producing partner, Grant Heslov.

All three men also worked together on The Tender Bar.

George Clooney has been heavily marketing the film and has recently done promotional appearances in London and New York City. He has been accompanied by his wife, human rights attorney Amal Clooney.

Anyway, on to the blind item.

Clooney and Heslov just did an interview in which they covered a broad variety of topics. Clooney berates President Donald Trump, laments the current state of studio films, and talks about his keto diet.

Another topic that caught our attention was a discussion of Clooney’s love life.

George Clooney is usually viewed as the handsome movie star who has dated any woman he wanted. Indeed, Clooney has probably dated half the women in Hollywood, including John Travolta’s late wife, Kelly Preston.

However, one woman threw away George Clooney like yesterday’s garbage. And he never forgot it.

From Deadline:

DEADLINE: That whole dynamic between [the lead character] and his college love interest is quite adventurous but frustrating, she unable to commit. What were trying to show about his situation?

CLOONEY: …But every guy I know, when they were young, dated a girl that made them fucking crazy you know, so I thought, this is kind of how it actually was…

DEADLINE: I imagine you have had an easier road with women unwilling to commit than most of your species, George. You’ve been through that hell?

CLOONEY: We all had that. We all had them.

HESLOV: He had one in particular.

CLOONEY: He remembers, very well, and she will remain nameless.

Either Clooney is referring to himself in the third person or he is instructing Heslov not to disclose the girlfriend’s name.

HESLOV: I mean, it was on again, off again, on again, off again, and she…

CLOONEY: Yeah, and then she dumped me in the most insane way.

HESLOV: She’d love him, and then…

DEADLINE: How did she dump you?

CLOONEY: I don’t remember now…

So this woman “dumped me in the most insane way”… yet he doesn’t remember how? Come on now, Clooney.

HESLOV: But the more she dumped him, the more he loved her.

CLOONEY: Yeah. Yeah. It was hysterical. I was 23, what did I know?

Who is this mystery woman?

What was the insane way she dumped Clooney? And why?

    Whoever dumped him is crazy. He is gorgeous, smart, charitable and funny. My current husband knows that George will be my second husband and has agreed to carry my suitcases to the car when he comes for me.

      Yep, I have a free pass for George Clooney. When my kids whine about how life is unfair, I always tell them, if it was, I’d be waking up with George every morning, in somewhere nice. Not north uk. 😂

    Used to like him and some of his films, but in recent years find him uninteresting. I never understood the fuss over his looks either. Meh on his marriage.

    • AihtnyC says

      Yep. Used to follow his career and thought he was such a fabulous person, but slowly realized he was full of himself and believes he should be handed a political career. Marrying his wife (aka marrying a younger model-like international lawyer) fits perfectly into his agenda.

    Wild guess…Diane Lane.

    Supposedly, the Bon Jovi song YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME is about her. She, Jon Bon Jovi and Clooney are roughly the same age.

    The only person I can find that he dated before Kelly Preston was Dedee Pfeiffer (Michelle’s sister) so I’m guessing it was Dedee. And then in interviews with Michelle Pfeiffer whom he starred with in One Fine Day at the same time he makes cracks about a restraining order so I’m thinking Dedee dumped him by getting a restraining order against him – that would be an insane way to dump someone.

    George would have been 23 in 1984.

    So this could be someone from “Riptide” when he guest starred…or…someone he met at the 1984 Olympics in L.A. Not Diana, not Caroline, but someone else construed as royalty, given the blind? Not necessarily of royal blood, though. That’s all I got.

    Based on the time frame, I will guess Laura Dern but that’s a guess
    No idea what would be an insane dumping.

    Don’t know , but I wish Hollywood would shut up about Trump. C’mon! Let’s move forward, shall we?

    Woman: Francine Smith

    Why she dumped him: because he stole her only scene in a bit part on a TV show

    How she dumped him: since he is completely in love with himself, she became him, made him fall in love with her, then tried to kill him

      ..”He’s not ever an actor! He just does that same cheesy move every time. Looks down, then looks back up, squinting underneath his eyebrows. AND EVERYBODY’S BUYING IT”

    DeeDee Pfiefer

    How/why? she probably had better options in 1984 and cheated?

    His current wife beautiful and seems smart and kind, so I’d say he made the right choice

    No idea. But if George is happy, then he married *his* Ms. Right (no matter what we think of her 😎).
