The actor, 61, recently responded to friend Brad Pitt’s claims that he is one of the most handsome men in the world, which he doesn’t seem to disagree with. “He’s right about that. Let’s face it. He’s right,” Clooney candidly stated while appearing on CBS This Morning with wife Amal Clooney, who added that her hubby is “not modest.” “I think the truth is…the first time he answered it, he said himself,” The Tender Bar director then joked of Pitt, 58. “And they said, ‘Maybe don’t say that. Do another take.’” Pitt previously made the comment during an interview with Vogue, where he was asked to name the most handsome men, past and present. “If I was gonna name someone present, well I gotta name that George Clooney fr,” the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood star joked earlier this month. “Cause why not?” He continued on to say, “Because usually, I’m always taking him out, and he’s always taking me out, and this time, I’m gonna go the other way. Just this once,” he said, adding, “George, that one’s for you.” Clooney later called Pitt a “good friend” while appearing on The Late Show, saying, “Well, I do have some things to say about him, and it will include the word fr in it, apparently, since he used that about me.” “I would say that I, too, think that I am the most handsome man in the world,” he quipped. The longtime friends are one of Hollywood’s favorite duos, appearing in multiple films together, including Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (2002), Burn After Reading (2008) and the Ocean’s Eleven series. They are even working together on an upcoming thriller for Apple, which Clooney already said he is “looking forward to,” according to People. More News:
