George Clooney never speaks out about his personal life, but a recent report pitting his new girlfriend Stacy Keibler against his ex Elisabetta Canalis made him so mad, that he is taking a stance against the story.
According to a recent tabloid report, George's ex Elisabetta — who was voted off Dancing With the Stars this week — sent him angry/jealous texts to about his lady, Stacy.
But George set the record straight, telling an entertainment news outlet that the story "was completely fabricated in order to sell magazines."
"I never comment on my personal life unless it affects others... and this lie affects others," he said, adding directly to the magazine who ran with the untrue report, "Since I would be the only actual witness, I ask you to correct your story immediately, but that would assume you cared at all about telling the truth."
Are you surprised that George spoke out? Sound off below.
