Noisy Money

[Blind Gossip] This man has always been very private about his finances. As a famous film actor and businessman, you knew that he was very rich, but he never talked about money.

So when an old story about his generosity suddenly surfaced, a publicist (not his) was immediately suspicious. Here’s what they found out:

Since his best friend told the story, you know that he couldn’t do it without [The Actor’s] permission. I found out that’s not exactly the way it happened.

[The Actor] actually ASKED [The Best Friend] to publicly tell the story!

Like all people, celebrities have patterns. When they do something completely outside their usual pattern, you know something is going on. What he just did is definitely not “normal” for him!

He is obviously trying to create the impression that he is a kind and thoughtful person who genuinely cares about other people. He’s also saying that he is willing to pay a huge mount of money to reward loyalty. That is some very purposeful and noisy signaling! He’s trying to get ahead of something.

Intriguing!

  5. George Clooney giving 14 of his friend $1M each.

    And he even gave it to his wealthy friend Randi Gerber (who in turn gave it to charity) who I presume is who spread the story.

    Why is this happening? Perhaps there’s some unsavoury news afoot…

  8. Clooney and Gerber.

    What is going on? My first thought was he wants to run for office. Or maybe, a signal to someone they can get some designer luggage filled with $20 bills to the tune of 1 million, or maybe $14 million in 14 cases.
    I wonder – don’t these people, whether Clooney/ Trump/ Weinstein/ Simmons/Lauer et al, don’t they wonder if their behavior is maybe a tad ‘bad’ when they are paying tens of hundreds of thousands, or millions. After shelling out so much, I’d stop doing…

  10. George Clooney.
    Randy Gerber
    He’s getting ahead of what’s about to come out about him. The handing out of headphones on a plane was such a pathetic ploy from a couple that can and do hire private jets.

  11. Clooney, bff Rande Gerber, and he’s trying to get in front of some negative allegations (harassment maybe?).

  12. Actor: George Clooney

    Best Friend: Rande Gerber

    As I was reading the story where he gave 14 of “The Boys” 1 million dollars each with taxes paid? The way this story came out seems totally suspect

  14. Actor: George Clooney gave a few friends each 1 million dollar gifts)

    Best Friend: Rande Gerber shared the story

    Optional: me thinks Salma Hayek coming out with a damning/searing experience about her experience with Harvey Weinstein implicates GC (amongst other men in industry) knew damn well that Harvey Weinstein was a raging/raping/sadistic lunatic. Though the men mentioned cane to Salmas aide, they DID know about Harvey’s serial sex crimes against women.
    Just a thought… :/

    • Everyone in Hollywood knew that Weinstein was rapist. They knew it. We knew it. Just about everyone have heard a Weinstein story, or knew others who have. However, knowing and having absolute proof are two different things. Without absolute proof, and victims who are willing to come forward and press charges. You have nothing. So George shouldn’t lose fans because he remain silent.

  15. George Clooney who gave some of his friends 1,000,000 dollars each. He had it in small bills, $20, in a briefcase for each of them. Friend who told the story Randy G— Cindy Crawford’s hubby.

  16. George Clooney, gave $1 million each to a dozen or so friends.

    Richard Kind

    Sexual harrassment

    • Not Richard Kind. The other best friend (and “business partner”) whose name I can’t bother to look up.

  17. George Clooney, the scum. He’s trying to salvage his dreams of being the democratic Reagan.

    Rande Gerber, Cindy Crawford’s husband just gave an interview detailing how George repaid 14 of his friends back for their loyalty and support over the years.

    The man basically boasted about how kind and loyal George is to those who are to him.

    My bet is that allegations are about to be leveled against him and it’s probably going to reveal he’s gay too.

    He can kiss Hollywood and…

  18. George Clooney and Rande Gerber about how Clooney gifted his 13 best friends with $1M and paid the taxes on it.

    Also how the Clooney’s gave noise cancel headphones to their entire flight bc they had their babies on board who would inevitably cry.

    I like to think Clooney is a good guy so idk what if any stories they are trying to cover up

  20. It’s George Clooney. There was a story about him giving huge amounts of money to his closest friends.

    Optional: I think it’s damage control after this whole Weinstein thing…he gave a few interviews that didn’t exactly paint him in a good light.

  21. George Clooney.
    Rande Gerber apparently just told a story about how he gave his closest friends $1 million each.

    Possibly, he is a part of the misconduct/harrassment/rape issue in Hollywood? Maybe he is signalling that he would pay people to stay “loyal” and not rat him out?

    • I think he paid someone off, and now he wants everyone to believe he has given cash in suitcases to people before. No big deal. Either that, or he is trying to account for the 14 mil cash payout to an accuser/blackmailer and friends agreed to say they each received 1 million to cover for him. A story is surely coming out. Unless he pays them off.

  24. First time looong time Ace!

    George Clooney?? Coming out ahead of a story !? Only time (and Ace) will tell!

  25. obviously george clooney giving his friends $1 million each, I thought the story was a pretty obvious PR plant so this blind does not surprise me

  29. Clooney giving 14 friends 1mil each, the best friend was the guy he’s in a tequila business with (Rande Gerber).

    Not sure re: what might be going on, for some reason doubt that he will be the next person to drop with all of the harassment, however maybe he was complicit in covering some of it up (would not be surprised at all) and that will come out? Otherwise I would guess that it’s some shady business dealings.

  31. George Clooney

    Rande Gerber

    George once gave 14 of his friends $1 million each.

    Heading off sexual assault claims?

  36. George Clooney, friend Randy Gerber. Maybe there are some sexual harassment stories about to come out about him?

  37. Omg this is crazy George Clooney giving his bf Randy Gerber a suitcase full of money and it’s just idiotic. The rich giving to the rich. Is he trying to keep that closet door locked?

  39. IDK who this, is but no amount of donations can stop this man from being vilified for his bad behavior.

  40. Actor: George Clooney
    Best Friend: Rande Gerber

    Just read about GC giving 14 of his friends $1.7 million each. Rande Gerber is the one who told the story. It apparently occurred 11/27/2013, a year to the day prior to his marriage.
    Time will tell if there’s anything to this.

  41. George Clooney

    Rande Gerber

    Something sexual. Curious to see if it’s guys or girls or both.

  45. George Clooney. He plans to run for President so this is the start of all the bs leading up to that. I think he is a total hypocrite, cannot stand him

  46. Clooney, of course

    Friend: Rande Gerber with his story about the million dollar gifts

    I don’t know what he’s being accused of, but I thought that other story about them gifting the headphones to plane passengers was a weird publicity stunt

  53. George Clooney gave 14 of his long-time friends 1 Million dollars each a few years ago. I forget who the friend was that came forward.

  59. George Clooney. Stuffed suitcases for several friends. One million dollars in each suitcase..in 20 dollar bills? Also gave an entire plane “Casimigo” headphones just in case his new babies were noisy during the flight. They weren’t. Hmmmm.

  61. Actor: George Clooney and paying off friends taxes.

    Best Friend: Rande Gerber

    Some shady stuff has been going on with Clooney for awhile. It will be sad to see him crumble if things go south. Although I’ve never seen the big deal about him, I’ve enjoyed him over the years.

  63. Randy Gerber told the story of George Clooney giving his 14 closest friends 1 million each to thank them for letting him sleep in their couches way back when etc. Dying to know what Clooney wants to get ahead of. Did he harass MEN in the biz or is he really gay and it is about to come out?

  65. George Clooney? I just saw an article today in which he supposedly gave several of his close friends $1 million each. I didn’t read it. I just rolled my eyes.

  69. George Clooney, Rande Gerber(?), and the $1 million suitcases for 14 of his friends for being “loyal”.

  70. George Clooney giving RM1 million to his friends.
    Optional: sexual harassment allegation? Divorce? Being closeted?

  72. george clooney

    I guess cindy crawfords husband, rande gerber?

    There will be a few salicious stories waiting to come out about his past conduct towards women.

  73. Actor is George Clooney. Best friend is Randy Gerber. George wants to get into politics and is just trying to build a positive image.

  75. Actor: George Clooney

    His Best Friend: Rande Gerber

    [Optional] What do you think is going on? no idea

  78. George Clooney
    Randy Gerber (Mr. Cindy Crawford)

    Story is coming out so if people claimed he paid them “hush money” he can say he just generous

  80. George Clooney and Mr. Cindy Crawford Rande Gerber

    Getting ready for a harassment scandal? Possibly/hopefully something gay?

  82. George Clooney. Blind is re: Rande Gerber telling to world that he gifted 14 friends a million dollars

  86. Actor: George Clooney, he gave 14 friends 1 million each

    Best Friend: Rande Gerber

    Optional: Don’t know but am curious now to see what’s coming.

  87. George Clooney
    The story just resurfaced of him giving away $1million to 14 of his closest friends one Xmas ….. Very suspect timing after all the sexual harassment cases

  88. Clooney
    Gerber

    Story that GC gave 14 friends each a million dollars, Oprah-style.
    It’s not subtle, that’s for sure!

  93. Clooney
    Gerber

    Story this week with Gerber going into detail about how Clooney gave each friend $1 million in 2013.

    Probably a harassment claim coming out soon.

  96. Generous George Clooney giving his 14 (millionaire) mates $1mill each for no fathomable reason, as per Cindy Crawford’s husband.
    So, is the something big that he’s announcing his intention to run for relevant elections next year?

  98. George Clooney, giving friends a million plus… Just because…..He wants to run for President .. He is one big fake…..
