Clooney theory

I think Clooney's gettin' Clooneyed.

Throughout the years, I've seen him on red carpets with gorgeous women on his arm. All of them gazed at him adoringly and hung on his every word. They were just happy to be there, rubbing elbows with the A-list, because they knew their time was limited. He never mentioned them during award-acceptance speeches and they never cared, because they were with Georrrrrrrge Muthafuckin' Clooney, y'all.

And then I watched The Golden Globes last Sunday.

He didn't have a fawning girl on his arm. He was the one fawning and falling all over his new wife.

Not only is she lovely...
She's educated.
She's got her own money.
She's a highly respected human rights barrister.
And she achieved all of that by the age of 36.

Also, from what I saw, she was not at all impressed by much of anything she encountered at the Golden Globes (many of her dinner companions have high school diplomas; some don't even have that). She did genuinely smile when he gushed about her (how very unclooneylike) during his acceptance speech. 

And instead of wondering how she managed to snag such an eligible bachelor, the tides turned and folks started to ask How did HE get HER???

He'd better watch out for that one. His time might be limited. :)
