George Clooney curries favor among us because, among other things, he seems to have things in perspective, as is illustrated in this excerpt from People (UK), via ONTD:
But he hates the way some big names take themselves seriously. “The problem with famous people is that they actually start to think of themselves in a special way,” he says. “They think, ‘I am famous, because I earned it’. That’s not true. It happens on a flip of a coin.
“I became famous because of the TV show, ER. It had a Thursday night 10pm time slot in America and became a massive hit.
While that’s true, looking like a million bucks doesn’t hurt. You really need it all to be George. You need to be seriously good looking, have lots of charm and charisma and then be in the right place at the right time.
