George Clooney Starts Early Campaign To Become India's 2007 Sexiest Man Alive
Having recently bid a bittersweet and final adieu to his closest slop-eating friend in the world, George Clooney has chosen in the difficult days since to focus entirely on his work, if only to keep distracted from the deep sadness that washes over him every time he thinks of the lonely silence where a cacophony of enthusiastic oinks used to be. Among the many busy-making projects he's currently considering is the slim possibility, as related in his response to what must have been a wire reporter's leading question, of starring in a Bollywood musical:
"I'd love to. There are some filmmakers whose films when you see (them) you say, `That could be an interesting story to tell,'" the 45-year-old actor said in an interview Thursday on the private CNN-IBN channel.
"I was watching a film the other day and the music was just amazing. It's become such a huge industry," he said.
As counterintuitive a proposition as it might sound, a sojourn into India's massive movie business might be exactly the kind of career gamble the actor needs, allowing the Black And White Clooney of recent releases to finally shed his monochromatic skin, starring as a Smurf-hued prince with supernatural lovemaking powers, who is taken to expressing his various thought and emotions through elaborate, Technicolor production numbers backed by a chorus line of 250 high-kicking, scantily clad Hindu goddesses.
