Here are some photos of Amal Clooney visiting the New York set of Money Monster, George Clooney’s new film. He’s being directed by Jodie Foster, and the film also stars Jack O’Connell and Julia Roberts. This is the second high-profile set visit from Amal that we’ve seen. She seems to choose jeans for her set visits, and this time it was a pair of skinny Capri jeans. Her legs are so slender! I swear, she’s lost weight since meeting and marrying George. I don’t like her pants that much, but the gauzy, floral blouse is sort of cute. I think Amal went overboard with the big, chunky earrings though. Girl, you need to edit!
I wish we had all of the photos of Amal’s papportunities in New York, because at this point, it really is a daily fashion show with NO repeat looks. On Friday, she stepped out in some flared Giambattista pants – go here to see. She really does love designer clothes, and my guess is that she’s getting a lot of this stuff at a steep discount or flat-out for free.
As People Magazine’s source claimed last week, Amal is not pregnant. Basically, that’s what the source said, so don’t Bump Watch her because of the floaty blouse. People’s source said Amal is “very much in love and extremely busy” and “not thinking about babies” right now. Which is fine. I have to admit, George and Amal look genuinely into each other in these photos. Like, he can’t take his eyes off her. And she’s chatting with his coworkers and they just seem very connected. Maybe it will work out. Maybe.
Right now, Amal and George are still selling us a certain image. That image? The New Camelot. I think. Remember how I pointed out the similarities – both obvious and forced – between Amal and Carolyn Bessette? I wrote that last June, and my witch-like premonition has come true, to an overwhelming degree. Amal has been styling herself like a vintage Kennedy woman, and Elle Magazine is currently running a piece called “Is Amal Clooney New York’s New Carolyn Bessette?” Go here to see Elle’s piece, complete with side-by-side comparison photos of Carolyn and Amal. And there you go. Not only was I prescient about the Carolyn Bessette thing, but Amal is following through like a champ.

I think they are great friends and this is a marriage of convenience that will suit them both.
They seem happy so that is what really matters at the end of the day
I think they are truly in love (by truly I mean they are not staging it). But they are shipping their relationship hard. Never had thought that Clooney is one of these celebritys who calls the paps and celebrates a public wedding.
Also I don’t get why everyone’s praising her legs. I think she’s way too thin and it doesn’t look like she’s that thin naturally.
I too think they are in it for real and seem v happy but those legs sorry she is sooooo thin her legs in short dresses are like my arms after working out alot. All in all I am sort of tired them and can’t believe he is all over the place but glad not bf jeans she needs to stay away from those and not super skinny jeans either.
“Seems” being the operative word. Clooney is an actor – he pretends things for a living. Don’t think for a minute they didn’t know they were being photographed. George doesn’t have a spontaneous bone in his body. Everything is calculated with him, including his marriage. No shade at her – he was offering, and she accepted. It will last as long as he needs it to last.
I find this argument to not hold up. Actors aren’t acting 100% of the time. They let their guards down often. Just look at mistakes, outbursts, and genuine moments that aren’t intended for cameras. Moments that do not help the actor at all.
A part of us can pick up on factors that evaluate sincerity. You can’t really know that in frames though.
And George isn’t that good of an actor. They’re happy. If that’s because they’re both getting what they want or because they have feelings for eachother it doesn’t change that they’re happy.
Agree with you there, @epiphany. But I think they also see it as like, “Well, this is going to get a lot of attention no matter what, so we should carefully manage it from the very start.” It’s not like funding a $250000 a year PR team is going to cost the $180 million George big bucks. I think George sees it as an opportunity to get credibility and advocate for issues he cares about. The mythomania part is undeniable, but it’s genuinely part of him.
I do find that their approach to EVERYTHING (clothing, gestures, public displays) changes according to public sentiment. They probably have someone trawling this comment thread right now and taking notes. He’s trying to control everything. I’m waiting for the big-time appointment in conjunction with the Vogue cover and spread. It’s the 21st century mixing of fantasy and image (celebrities without public responsibility) with reality and political power (or at least trying to be influential). It’s a confused mess.
I know people pick Amal apart, bit by tiny excruciating bit, desperate to find something negative, but I think she’s a nice, good tempered woman. I wonder if she’s letting her hair go gray or is that just the lighting. They certainly seem to be in love. George never looked that attentive with any of his other girlfriends.
Agree…the petty nitpicking is wearing. She’s a sophisticated, intelligent, accomplished woman–I’m happy for them.
I was thinking the same thing. Is it the lighting or a few grey streaks? I rather like her in many ways. One exception is the horrible gloves she wore to that awards show. That was not a good look for her
Isn’t it terrible that women do that to other women? Especially ones who call themselves “feminists”. What could possibly be wrong with Amal? She’s a beautiful, educated, successful, and smart woman.
So, because another woman has success means all other women must only praise? Yay Feminism! Fall in line or go to that special place in hell, right?
beautiful, educated, smart, successful – all good things, but not necessarily character traits. I know nothing about her other than media push so I won’t judge, but I also don’t fall on my knees overly-impressed by work success, education, beauty or smarts. They don’t mean anything human.
My take has always been he wanted a respectable woman who is admired for her person, as Angelina Jolie has become. But Amal likes the spotlight too much. She strikes me as attention-needy and a poser. Not like Angelina at all. Try again George.
Isn’t it customary to wait until someone actually ‘picks another person apart’ in a thread before accusing people of picking someone apart?
What, because today was going to be the day that everyone was going to be nice about Amalgamated Clooney?
@ Bridget…I don’t get the sarcasm. I’m all for calling people on their B.S. who have celebrity and don’t deserve it…who are basically uneducated and self-promoting and contribute literally nothing to society but feel entitled because of their wealth or pseudo-fame, but that is NOT the case with Amal, and I will never understand the put-downs. She’s worked hard (and legitimately) for what she has accomplished, and I’d never put anyone down for that. Education, in itself, is a lot of work. Many of the celebrities on this site on a daily basis have literally no education and are self-entitled narcissists who think the world owes them a living.
How do you know she has worked hard for her success? From what I have been hearing from former co-workers, that may have not been the case. And please don’t even start with the just jealous line. I wouldn’t want a life where I had to be puffed up on my CV, surgically enhanced and have my background expunged to be considered valuable and some sort of standard. That is not having the world at your feet, that is a gilded cage.
@Judy: “Amalgamated” was an auto correct apparently. And the rest of my comment was in response to Emma.
@madly: Really?
Amalgamated is auto correct. That and Anal are two of the best auto correct I have seen. Now I agree with the nitpicking to a certain extent. I am drawing a definitive line at the people complaining about her toes. I didn’t realize there was that many people with a foot fetish.
Now when you are Mrs. Clooney and you get all prettied up because you are going to be photographed, and you wear thousand dollars worth of designer clothes I kind of feel like she wants people to comment on her clothes and probably her hair too. I say that is fair game.
Apology to Bridget and thanks for the explanation. Amalgamated…ha.
Madly
It’s been covered at length on threads here. To sum it up What Amal has done (schooling/clerk/jobs) is not something you get handed to you and sail through. Should you get a heavily fought over position you have to keep working and struggling to keep it. There’s no doubt when really looking at what she’s done regarding her path in law she’s earned it through very hard and competitive work.
Feel free to look up those early Amal threads here. Official Links are there. Not tabloid or publication articles, but documentation from justices, schools, achievement lists, etc..
Suuuurre Florc. Sure. Lol.
@madly – Co-workers are saying she didn’t work hard? I suspect these people are lying that they worked with her, because they simply do not understand how a barrister gets to be on cases in this field. For starters why would Ben Emmerson QC choose a lazy barrister to help him on his case when he had his pick of the entire legal profession? He had worked with her before so it’s not like he wouldn’t know she was not hard working. He is not from the same chamber so there wasn’t any solidarity. She hadn’t even met Clooney so there was not any celebrity tie. Sorry it doesn’t make sense, so I suspect they are telling a load of porkies. And there are international court documents that can tie her these cases.
Lol, not all these people are lying. Why would they, but a pattern of behavior is being established. Plus you forget to mention the cases, one really high profile one, that she has been dropped from. Her name is attached to many cases, that doesn’t mean she is putting a lot of hours on them. Not when she is going on vacation and pap walks all the time.
Believe what you want, but I think you are reaching.
Not judging Amal. Don’t know her, but I will say if I had a dime for every over-educated buffoon I’ve had to work with, I’d be one rich woman. Education means nothing in regards to humanity, character, selflessness, sensivity, etc. In fact, I dare say, some over-educate to make up for lackings in their personal life and character. She might be a great humanitarian, but frankly, she seems to want attention for her fashion sense or lack thereof.
are you kidding? these jeans don’t fit at all… she seriously needs to start buying clothes for her figure, she’s like the opposite kim kardashian, instead of wearing too tight things she chooses clothes that could slip off any second
@Edith, who wrote: “are you kidding? these jeans don’t fit at all… she seriously needs to start buying clothes for her figure, she’s like the opposite kim kardashian, instead of wearing too tight things she chooses clothes that could slip off any second”
I actually think those jeans fit her pretty well. Amal is a thin or thinner than Angelina Jolie so those teeny tiny jeans ‘do’ fit and flatter her. Any tighter, and she’d have to have them cut from her body. Look at the snug fit at her angles, knees, and thighs.
Amal is a very pretty lady, but I don’t think the fit is right on those jeans either.
I am very petite myself, so I can totally relate to finding jeans that fit whilst having two toothpicks as legs. Those jeans are so tight at the calves but way too baggy at her knees… they have a loosely fit in general and it would look fine if the ankles weren’t so tight in my opinion. like that the jean fabric gathers up on her knees and it looks ill-fitted
Amal’s jeans are tighter than the jeans of the man walking next to her. Do you think ‘his’ jeans are too baggy?
If a man kisses you with his eyes open – he is not that into you…
Amal looks natural and not so try hard here and I like what she is wearing.
I think that’s sort of an over generalization. If you’re standing in a group of people, many of them snapping pictures, are you really going to get lost in the moment, close your eyes and make out? He’s probably distracted.
To me it looks like the snapped the pick as his eyes are closing.
Whatever, I don’t necessarily subscribe to the open/close eyed thing anyway.
If a man gets dumped by a wrestler and then marries his rebound, he’s not that into you…
Making up relationship ‘rules’ is so funny. I could do this all day! Keep em coming!
LOL
I could snap one of her thighs between mine.
Really hard on the eyes this woman is. Her face is really unattractive and her body makes Angelina look like Rosie O’Donnell. Ugliest mouth I have ever seen.
Good thing George is no longer so blatantly superficial.
Wow what a vile comment about someone’s looks. Thin shaming is as bad as fat shaming and as for her facial features – so people with a big mouth are ugly????
I agree. She’s fairly attractive, and I really find the backlash against her looks and her body sexist and offensive. Hey, I’m nothing close to being her biggest fan at all and I think the amount of money she spends on designer clothing is revolting but the comments on her her looks are pretty nasty and uncalled for.
On the other hand, in terms of the journalists falling over themselves to make her into the next Diana or whatever, It’s great she’s an accomplished woman but in the end it’s still celeb talk and she’s like every other smart lawyer/professional out there. Women are capable of succeeding, but so what in terms of it being celeb fodder?
Nice.
Hmm. I wonder what you look like, Mike?
You’re probably an incredibly hot basement dweller, Mike.
So it is ok for you to shame somone based on their looks, but not for him? Clooney/Amal fans are not the brightest. Maybe that’s why they buy the smoke and mirrors so easily.
Classy. And people wonder why women have esteem issues.
You seem to have quite a weird idea of ‘ugly’ I’m no fan of this pair but I do think she’s attractive by anyone’s estimation. Like most of us she has good and bad angles and those photo’s do not do her justice. As for commenting on her body type, I suspect she is naturally very slender and calling her out on that is just as damaging as calling someone out for being ‘too fat’, we are all what we are and each of us is valuable in our own right, regardless of body shape or culturally imposed ideas of physical perfection that you seem more than happy to subscribe to.
Oh…you’re back again. Thought we’d chased you out of town Mike, why don’t you go back to your cave now.
When did we start ‘chasing people away’ from “Celebitchy” for voicing their opinion?
Who wants to hear opinions like that, Emma? I don’t.
Would you let Mike back in town, out of his cave, if he has the same opinions as you, Jaded?
Stay in town, Mike. You don’t have to leave
No, no, Mike, stay away!
Well, I tend to agree with him. She’s no looker and her body is looking particularly unattractive. Eww. A skeletal figure on whom tiny jeans don’t fit appropriately around the crotch area.
Since always. Some of the regulars are downright mean. You can’t chase someone who has a right to be here as you. Get over yourself and stop living vicariously through someone who will never know or care about you! Hive mentality here and the admins are worse. They barely post comments here if you disagree. Very regulated here. Definitely the bored mommy club. Amal has bug eyes and a baked potato nose. There I said it. It’s my opinion and I’m entitled to it.
Lol at the eyes of a bug and a nose like a baked potato. A baked potato? I understand your opinion is not supposed to be nice, but it’s kind of silly/cute and making me giggle.
And I think her jeans look odd. They’re so tight on her calves but all baggy around her knees. I think they would have been cuter if they weren’t so tight at the bottom.
Everyone has their own idea of what ugly and attractive is. Just like not all people like the same food. Not everyone thinks Angelina is the most beautiful goddess. I hear plenty saying Amal is ugly and some say pretty
Nobody can say they’ve never called another celebrity, especially a Kardashian, ugly.
@mikes opinion is just his opinion
“Nobody can say they’ve never called another celebrity, especially a Kardashian, ugly. ” This is a pretty general statement. Be careful on being so general because there are those who comment that do not body shame or call people ugly.
I have never said anyone on this site was ugly. Neither has anyone else I “know” on here. I think about 1% of the commenters get that ugly. Oops, I said it. It’s a fine line. Yes, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I think most people like Celebitchy because the comments aren’t all “she’s fat, she’s too thin, she’s ugly.” Most people try to thoughtfully comment on issues, or be funny, keeping it light. Maybe people don’t want it to turn into a trash heap. And I think they have a right to express their opinion that a comment is mean and pointless.
I don’t comment a lot on this site, but I read it daily and I love reading the comments here because even when the commenters are being snarky or critical, they voice their opinion in a classy, respectful, witty, and intelligent way. Frankly, no one deserves to be called ugly, not even animals. People do not chose how they want to be created. they have no say in it. In this case, i’m sure Amal didn’t choose her mouth or her other facial features, and she certainly is not aiming to look unattractive by being skinny. You are free to call Amal ugly, however, please keep in mind that your opinion is very very subjective and that George doesn’t necessarily share it at all. It’s very possible that George is “as blatantly superficial as ever” and he chose Amal because in his eyes, she is the most beautiful woman in the world
Laura, that was very nicely said. Kudos!
@GoodNamesAllTaken, who wrote: “Most people try to thoughtfully comment on issues, or be funny, keeping it light. Maybe people don’t want it to turn into a trash heap. And I think they have a right to express their opinion that a comment is mean and pointless.”
But they didn’t “express their opinion that a comment is mean and pointless,” they said the commenter should “go away” and “don’t come back” and “I thought we had driven you away from here.” If I’m not mistaken, the only time people are banned from “Celebitchy” is when they violate the rules of posting. Voicing your opinion in a manner that doesn’t violate the rules of posting is allowed. There have been many posts here at “Celebitchy” in which celebrities are called ugly, unattractive, gold digger, crazy, etc.
There are times when people post hateful things here that are ‘not’ based on opinion but what they consider ‘fact’ (sometimes just to be bi$chy, but most times out of honest ignorance). In those instances, instead of wishing the poster ‘gone,’ people post constructive replies with facts (links, article excerpts, etc.) showing what the poster said isn’t accurate.
I’m curious … is the response mainly because the poster’s moniker is ‘Mike?’
Emma – you have a valid point. Ordinarily, I would completely agree with you. There are two posters on here. Mike and Mark. Some people think they are the same person because their posts are always the same. They say something outrageously mean, cruel and usually misogynistic, then just sit back and enjoy the uproar. They never add anything else to the discussion, just a hate remark, and they’re gone. I think it’s a game to them, and we should probably just ignore them, though as you can see, I didn’t take my own advice. Maybe people went too far to say go away, but I can understand the sentiment. It’s an open forum, and you’re right, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I don’t think Mike/Mark want to add anything to the discussion. I doubt their comments even reflect their opinions. So, although I agree with your sentiments, I see the other side, too.
Superficial or not, I really don’t believe that George Clooney is in love with her.
My gossip dream is that Amal and George will climb the political ladder, George will be president and then we’ll find out that Amal is actually transgender. We’ll have a president a first transgender lady. It’ll be awesome.
Make room on the “Angelina is not a goddess” bench. I think the backlash comes from people being tired of having someone shoved up their @$$ as the most beautiful thing to grace the earth, just because their star is on the rise. Can’t an actress just be a really good actress (not referring to Angelina here, who I think is a terrible actress) without all of the hyperbole about their looks? Same goes for male actors – big movie franchise = hunk, no matter what they actually look like.
I think that hairless cats are ugly. I like my cats to be furry.
Mike these are just mean comments, but you do have a valid point in your vitriol. Why does everyone think that George Clooney’s wife has to be beautiful? Personally, I don’t think Amal is beautiful. She looks like a lot of women who given that much money for clothes, makeup and hair blowouts, and time to prepare, would look like. George is only supposed to marry someone because they are gorgeous and brilliant. Yes because a college drop out needs to marry a person with a thousand Phd’s. They would have so much in common the conversation would be stimulating. Yes Mike if this is true love, and I have my doubts, it is a good thing George isn’t so superficial.
Now for the cynic in me. Can they stop selling the Camelot brand, and Kaiser they really should hire you because this is just over the top now. I think you could sell it with a little less in your face dog and pony show. Even Carolyn Bessette wore the same clothes more than once.
I think you may have a valid point, but I disagree that Mike did. That comment was just mean. The point was Amal is ugly.
I once read a quote from Joan Rivers. “Beauty is the rent they make you pay to occupy the space of being a woman. ” Or something like that.
This is my exact comment I made in August 2014 in this blog-
“As long as the comparison is going-
JFK Jr. – had law degree, passed the Bar
Clooney – no degree, sits at the bar”
I have not changed my opinion at all about this pairing as an attempt for a political future.
Let us now watch the travesty of how quickly AAC will be given permanent alien status (green card) . Why a travesty, some people have to wait YEARS!!!
@emmet
She’s married to an American citizen. I don’t get why a green card would be a travesty?
I’m not saying I buy the new Camelot comparison either, and I generally like the Kennedys, but @emmet, let’s be fair… JFK Jr. failed the NY Bar exam twice before he finally passed – and we know he did his share of sitting at the bar (or other substances) in his life.
Plus I don’t buy the “no degree” as a harbinger of low achievement, knowledge or intellect. Plenty of very successful people never got a degree.
I don’t want to get into my background and experience with the granting of a green card.
Why I am put off by this, is the granting of privileges to a celebrity spouse who will not have to go through a lengthy process that again is a privilege not a right. Remember she was allowed to go into the White House without a background check to protect GC’s privacy in January 2014. But yet look what happened to the Salahis? I am no fan of theirs, but fair is fair.
Just a blanket response to those who don’t agree with my comments.
I am not comfortable with George Clooney representing me in any form as an elected or appointed official in the US government. and that’s it!!!
@emmet: Amal studied at NYU for her Master’s and has clerked for Justice Sotomayor years before she became Ms Clooney. And she has worked with a NY-based law firm for several years, also long before marrying, so I highly doubt she needs “celebrity spouse” privileges.
I had no idea either that Clooney is representing you, last time I looked he’s an actor – and he said several times he wouldn’t want to go into politics. But if your standards are so high, it looks like the majority of people elected into the House of Representatives and the Senate shouldn’t ever think of speaking and/or deciding anything that concerns you.
@GNAT – thank you for your comments – they are wise and balanced.
Love,
Jaded
Dear Jaded,
Ditto, my friend.
Love,
GNAT
Emmet, the Salahis crashed a party at the White House to which they were not invited. I hardly think that’s the same thing.
I agree with Jaded–GNAT is on top of her game today. Thanks for being here GNAT! 🙂
@Nanea So now it’s a Master’s Degree from NYU?
@mia girl – Were you aware that JFK Jr. had dyslexia? Think about that-
As for the rest of the minivan majority comments to me – go to Clooney’s Open House and dream away.
ass.
Celebitchy is called Celebitchy for a reason. I’ve read worse than Mike’s comments on both Celebitchy and Dlisted which I know a lot of other people frequent as well. I don’t find Amal attractive either and I believe that she has lost a ton of weight and is not that naturally thin. Maybe some people think that Carolyn Bassett and Amal Clooney look good, but I never did. They just have the money to wear typically classic clothing that most professional women tend to wear. To each his/her own.
Have you seen mark around lately, Mike?
They’re twins.
Or possibly the same person – different computer…
Matter of opinion, for sure. I think she’s gorgeous. Beautiful face, hair, body.
Nobody cares about your boner, Mike. But seriously ladies? It’s ok when you do it but get up in arms when Mike does? Some of you are only criticizing her clothing choices but there’s a whole lot of body shaming going on too. Thank Mike for showing you how you’re also playing into that nasty game of judging women (even this accomplished woman) by their desirability.
Maria, the majority of us don’t come out with “she’s ugly” comments, period. We may comment with concern about celebrities who are unnaturally thin verging on anorexia, or unhealthily overweight, or celebrities who have messed up on drugs or treat their partners abusively, etc. etc., but most of the regular commenters are not vicious or pejorative about someone they don’t know. Those who make nasty comments strictly based on someone’s looks are quickly shot down. Mike’s comments are a rarity here at Celebitchy and, therefore, deserve some corrective opinions. People are born looking a certain way, they have little control over it unless they resort to drastic cosmetic surgery. If you want to comment on Amal’s fashion sense, reason she married Clooney, her job or political leanings, fine, but don’t base her worthiness or lack thereof on the face she was born with.
Honestly, I don’t really care. I’m posting here because for some reason the new Hiddles pictures aren’t up and I’m bored with no where to go. So, I’m commenting here out of boredom. But I have to say, Jaded, how do you know she hasn’t had plastic surgery? It wouldn’t be shocking to me that someone, though smart is super vain as she is, would actually get something done. I know a lot of intelligent women who have had plastic surgery and have insecurities about their body/looks. Being smart and vain are not mutually exclusive. I’m not saying she has or hasn’t, but there is a lot of assumption about this woman around here. There are a lot of educated women out there, can we stop acting like this is the first time in history that this has happened? And if she’s going to put herself out there like a celebrity, she’s going to be picked apart like one. Comes with the territory.
I don’t find her attractive at all. She has buggy eyes and a baked potato nose.
Well, George is no Adonis – regardless of what the female masses think. Dude is plain if not homely. I have never understand his appeal and he’s a total dawg, so I don’t get the praise for this fella. Amal is definitely better than he deserves and he’d never get anybody close to her intellect if their marriage doesn’t work out, so I hope for him, they make it work. I, for one, do not think Amal is attractive let alone any kind of beautiful. I’m just saying he is no work of art even though most women seem to have been brainwashed by the media telling them he is.
She does her best. She didn’t choose her looks, Mike. Overbite and bunions CAN be fixed.
She does her best. She didn’t choose her looks, Mike! Overbites and bunions can be fixed.
I don’t get the Carolyn Bessette comparison at all, but I think AC looks good. I do wish she would gain a bit of weight tho. Her face is so gaunt.
I don’t understand it either. And do they live in NYC now? How can she be the new CB of New York?
I think the comparison is that they are high profile women married to the eternal bachelor? I don’t see the comparison either. Both the styles are completely different. Amal is all about eclectic styling and bright colors, and Carolyn’s was WASPY, preppy, clean lines, Calvin-Klein, ralph-Lauren kind of style.
Carolyn Bessette would have never worn those sandals. She had her own distinctive style — she didn’t seem to follow trends like Amal does.
the comparison is absurb.
sorry…no offense to amal, who seems like a sweet lovely lady.
there is and will always be ONE carolyn bessette.
and only ONE jfk jr.
Agree, OSTONE. I don’t mind Amal’s style, but I this CB was much more classic and sophisticated. Clean lines, as you said.
CBK would never have worn chunky jewellery.
Completely different looks. Carolyn had a look that was not fluffy or trendy. I cannot imagine her wearing that floaty print blouse or those jeans. Or those huge, bauble like earrings with a casual outfit.
Carolyn and JFK Jr. really were a sort of golden-couple for those times. She had a super simple, elegant style. Not at all the type of style that Amal has.
I think the only similarity as @ostone pointed out is that there is a successful, professional, educated woman who finally captured the heart of the eternal bachelor. While I don’t mind Clooney and Amal, I would not call them a golden-couple.
Carolyn Bessette just wore black all the time and she didn’t do anything noteworthy but marry a Kennedy. Amal has many avcomplishments, but people only want to talk about how she looks and is dressed. Sexist.
CB was simple, yet elegant. She was all about class and clean lines. Amal has horrible fashion sense. I am offended for Carolyn.

I don’t remember anything about Carolyn Bessette beyond her marrying JFK’s hot son. Jackie’s style is the only Kennedy woman’s I remember. I do agree that Mrs Clooney lost a lot of weight when she was already think. Her shoulder bones and face bones sticking way out and not in a good way.
Personally, I think Clooney is sort of obsessed with the Kennedy Camelot era, and I think his PR people are selling it. Volia the articles comparing them in Elle and other NY magazines. Supposedly he has all sort of Kennedy Camelot memorabilia. It kind of reminds me of Nicolas Cage’s fascination of all things Elvis and then he marries Lisa Marie. Well I believe George marriage to Amal has outlasted Nick marriage to Lisa Marie.
George is not anywhere in the league Of JFK
Jr. Or the Kennedy Family. Obsurd.
Carolyn Bessette was stunning, and then lost too much weight.
Read “American Son” -it is fascinating.
Carolyn and John were certainly not perfect – a very turbulent marriage.
Amal had accomplished nothing but some degrees ,”ain’t that given by family !”then she find a job nothing far from that is Accomplished ..period.
what the difference she made in the criminals life she worked for,NOTHING.
how many lawyer working now and worked with UN,clerk for great judges /lawyers ,had degree and masters> millions or billion !and you can say they worked and what they did is good and not easy but it’s also ordinary and not as great as it’s written by all the PR washing heads machine .
Amal accomplished degree and job ,any thing else written PROPAGANDA BS .
what?
Go away loser trilby227
I don’t like those jeans, but I don’t mind Amal.
I don’t mind her, either, but don’t like the earrings with that blouse or the sandals. The jeans don’t bother me, because I’m old and have completely lost my feel for what jeans are cool. I mean, I know better than mom jeans but these look ok to me. I need you to help me pick out jeans, or should I just not attempt them at 58?
I like the jeans and the top and she looks very pretty and springy.
*she said without tongue in cheek*
Looks like the earrings are really uncomfortable,and something I wouldn’t wear. 58 isn’t old, don’t worry about wearing capri jeans. Ladies of all ages wear them
I don’t care for the intentional or unintentional ruching or bunching. It’s not the length that bothers me. Kanye wears leather pants with that effect too and it always reminds me of hosing or some kind of machine/robot arm in factory processing.
It’s hard to find jeans that you love at any age, GNAT.
I like the top, so I agree with Taterho there.
Thanks, everybody. I saw a woman the other day at a social function. She was trim and attractive, maybe 10 years older than I am. She was wearing jeans, and they fit nicely, but I was thinking maybe I’ll call it day after 60. There was just something about it that looked weird. I don’t know, we will see.
Goodnames, my denim advice is go to a nice boutique and splurge on the best pair of jeans you can find. Have someone who knows what they are doing put you in something you wouldn’t normally try. I don’t care how old you are.
Just no capris unless you have legs for days. 🙂
I don’t mind the outfit as separate pieces but together I’m not 100% feeling it. But then again, I probably would have worn the blouse and the jeans together but w/flats (and a different bag).
She still has great hair IMO.
Thanks, bellenola, we actually have a nice boutique here where the women all dress really well and they have a million types of jeans. I will take your advice and throw myself on their mercy.
Without make-up, Amal looks like George’s granddaughter.
Amal looks 40 to me, older than her age facewise.
She really hasn’t nice feet, so please no more open shoes 🙈
She is in no way a fashion icon or someone whose style should be commented on, c’mon now. Really?!! Nah.
Her shoes. Why?
What she was born with is perfectly fine — what she’s putting on with what she was born with, I don’t get.
i feel like the amal criticism is a bit much sometimes as well. And i’m not crazy about the commentary on her weight either. If it’s not okay to comment on how much weight women have put on and kept on after meeting a man, marriage, or kids, then it shouldn’t really be fair game to constantly comment on a thin girl’s weight either.
Also, is it just me or does her wearing designer clothes *not* bother anyone else? Honestly, if I married a Clooney and I was getting amazing clothes, shoes, bags all the time, I would actually take it (no complaints) and you’d see me papped with it everywhere as well lol. We’re all on these sites because we love pop culture, makeup, fashion etc. so I think for most of us, it’d be a dream to have that kind of unfettered access to custom/off the runway looks even if we are otherwise serious accountants, attorneys, consultants, etc.
Any criticism about weight is too much. We don’t know her. She looks fine as far as I know.
I wear designer and brand name clothes everyday because there’s 3 outlet malls in my area. I don’t think that’s where she gets hers. Wonder if she always wore the best or started when she married George and was put in the public eye all the time. She’s pretty lucky to have the best, most expensive, fancy designer clothes from her rich, famous, handsome husband.
Well I’m sorry this it bothers you but this is a free country and we’re entitled to our opinions on Celebitchy…LOL
Commenting on weight bothers all but the ones doing it
Her wardrobe of designer duds doesn’t bother me either . . . would love to play dress-up on the daily.
Platform, ankle-tie sandals accentuate chihuahua legs. Too clunky for very thin legs & not flattering.
+100.
Nah, they’ve run this like a Hollywood project constantly editing based on sample audience screener critiques. Every new Amal show is too obvious in ticking new photo shoot boxes to address online negatives from an appearance before.
It has all been too staged and manufactured from the get go. Nothing seems genuine or sincere except their desire to make Amal into a something.
Keeping this going must be employing a lot of people 24/7 in scripting and dressing the next Act.
This.
+1000. They do. I am in marketing. The scale and relentlessness of this effort, combined with the lack of a clear goal or product, have certainly captured my attention.
The comments above capture my own thoughts about this puzzling ‘production’. The part Cleo mentions about ‘scale and relentlessness…combined with the lack of a clear goal or product’ is spot on.
We can only speculate as to what the true pitch (or end game) truly is. Sometimes, I’m not sure Team GC really knows.
@cleo I agree!!!!! I keep looking at all these very similar stories and the amount of comments, and I wonder why I keep reading and posting comments. The story is repetitive, and I don’t feel that interested or involved. Frankly, I could care less whether its love, lust, contract marriage or which Giambatistta Valli outfit she has on. Still I can’t stop. As a marketing person myself, I agree this looks like a fine oiled campaign, I just guess I am trying to see the goal or product in mind too.
Yup. I’ve been wondering what my attraction is to this story as well. Beyond what’s stated here, I think that I’m intrigued by the idea that a legal professional of a similar age to me agrees to all of this puffing, padding, and scrubbing (referenced above).
I wouldn’t necessarily want to represent *her* clientele, but I understand and appreciate the role of a competent defense lawyer in an adversarial legal system. What I want to know is — what is it about her that is so bad that all of this padding and scrubbing needs to happen???? Or is she just that ambitious and fame-hungry that she’s willing to erase anything in her past to get ahead?
She looks fine. Super thin, but the outfit is pretty cute to me. I don’t know about bulky sandals on her though. They tend to overwhelm skinny legs and ankles.
It seems like Amal showed up earlier in the week dressed like she was ready for a pap walk. All the photos on set with her never showed George happy or smiling at or with his wife.
So damage control. They redo it. She shows up dressed more effortless casual and he lays on the happy happy happy to see his bride on set. Okay. Got the pictures. Great. See, I love my wife coming on set. Release for gossip mags. Done. Okay. Get Amal out of here, so I can get some work done. PR session over.
You read my mind.
Lol “Take 2!”
exactly, it’s all too calculated like a PR move…because it is one!
I think Carolyn Bessette, like others on here have said, was classic, sophisiticated in a simple elegance. Her casual look was never ever try-hardy or too trendy. Out and about in NY, she never looked like she dressed for a pap walk or photo op.
Amal has her own quirky style, which I have no problem with. I think she looks cute in this second visit. I do think, though, often, like earlier this week going on set, she looked like she dressed completely for a photo-op, not just living real life stopping by to visit her husband on set. That’s why the new photos, a second visit, looking less posed and George all smiley and lovey, to counteract the look of the first visit last week which had none of that.
That’s why she can’t hold a candle to Carolyn Bessette, who was effortless in her style and never looked like she stepped out dressed for paps to catch a photo of her. If anything, that’s what made Carolyn and John so charming, the snaps of them off in the park together or walking their dog, but not giving off some air like she loved being papped, with some done look from head to toe while out casually in NY during the day. Carolyn was chic in a way most women envy, even in jeans and a sweater and boots. Amal is just too obvious in what she’s doing when out and about.
+1000
CBK (and her husband, at times) appeared to hate the presence of paps in their daily lives.
This is another HUGE difference between the couples — Carolyn (at times, barely) tolerated the paps. John knew the game and was used to playing along, but I never had the inkling they were trying to sell a look or a narrative. They were just living their lives.
Now with this couple, their public photos seem less than genuine. They don’t seem natural.
Yes to what everyone here has said. The two couples are seriously apples and oranges.
She reminds so much of Olive Oyl when I see her big feet, the skinny arms and the legs.
I still believe George is in the closet. I don’t think anybody could ever convince me he’s not gay.
Spot on.
I like her look here although she does look a bit frail, there’s thin and then there’s fragile, maybe she’s naturally that way though. Her face and colouring are beautiful.
I don’t understand why George has been openly selling this relationship from the beginning. It makes no sense that a supposedly private man would have a massive pr campaign to advertise his then fiancée/now wife. Only a couple who wanted to be in front of the cameras would do that. I don’t see any sexual chemistry between them either. It seems like a big show for us all. I hate to sound cynical but everything about how this relationship has been aggressively packaged and sold screams deception. It’s bizarre. What’s the point?
He wants to be married, like lots of people have throughout history, not necessarily for love but for other social advantages. This is still the case throughout the world. I’m just glad he chose a woman he seems to like rather than the retinue of bimbos he used to parade.
He eventually wants to run for public office and wrongly thinks that Amal will be an asset to him because, in realty, he’s not that smart. Other than beating the Dafur one trick pony, he’s got nothing.
Coloring yes,Amal’s face not pretty at all more like Plain Jane.
I do think she looks too thin. She’s definitely lost weight and it doesn’t take much on an already (naturally or not) slender woman to appear very noticeably because there’s no place to hide it. But I think she looks good here. I also think that she looks better with less makeup. Her strong features don’t take well to heavy makeup and age and unflatter her both. She looks younger and prettier here.
I was startled by her thinness in the bottom pic. She does look fresh and lovely regardless. Adore the blouse.
There was only one Carolyn Bessette Kennedy. I seriously was obsessed with her style. Should we even compare wedding dresses? No thanks. No even in the same category of styles. One is always classic chic minimal and perfect for every occasion and one is trendy loud a little tacky but fun in causal looks and bright and trendy and in her business looks. A little overly trendy and not enough personal style. Different styles completely.
She looks pretty here with the springlike blouse, the jeans aren’t bad, just baggy in the behind. Time to get rid of those shoes.
Wearing less or no makeup looks fresh, and she should do it more
I think the nitpicking is due to George marrying a woman that is the complete opposite of his previous loves/hookups in a long time. The message being sold is “My last girlfriends over the past 10 years or so were B- and C-list celebrities (and the occasional waitress) who were looking for a come-up and that why I didn’t marry them. I married my current wife because she’s stylish but she is greatly famous in her field. She doesn’t need me to get press or recognition, and that’s why I put a ring on it”.
@Kate
I agree with you. The comments in this site can be extremely scathing if you don’t happen to agree with the majority. Everyone has a right to their own opinion, whether or not is politically correct to the masses is irrelevant.
@Mike
As for me, you can stay out of the cave as long as you want and comment.
The comment section of this site is like others just a playground to manipulate the masses.
Her PR Team is the mayority to praise her looks and to whitewash her dubious activities.
When you have a look at DM, they lost control and there is very much negativity towards her.
Any positive statement about her is downvoted by hundreds of people in a minute.
Although her PR Team attacks the other posters personally and with nasty remarks, they can’t win, there are too many, who do not swallow the lies about her beauty, class and career.
Some people still rather trust their own eyes than her Propaganda in the gossip mags.
And I stopped blaming George for her PR orgies; it is her grinning at the cameras and acting like she’s the center of the universe, not him.
Word, the thirst for this kind of attention is pretty strong and blatant.
What a beautiful photo-op! One of my favorites so far because it looks Almost natural and non-staged.
Ha ha!
She seems really anorexic and it makes me sad for her 🙁
Amal seemingly has a second job by now- modelling the upcoming season’s designer cloth on an almost daily base (there have been pics yesterday). Looks like they have a photographer on stand-by, those aren’t random pap shots, and they know they are being photographed. Nice show. Wonder what Jodie Foster is thinking, since Amal brought another family member to the set (her half-brother last time)- her cousin Tarek Miknas.
In freezing NYC weather, she was papped daily in sleeveless summer clothing. Sheesh.
You, ma’am, are no Carolyn Bessette.
You’re right. She’s far more accomplished and does more good for the world than Carolyn Bessette ever did. What did Bessette ever do? Marry a Kennedy. That’s it.
You believe what you saying Tara,lol.
CBK is light years ahead from Amal.
CKennedy legend.
Amal wanaabe.
I think her style is similar to Taylor swift than CB because Mrs Clooney is approaching 40 the clothes she wear doesn’t define her age, she want to feel young but she’s failing by dressing young
Oh this is just a do over. Last week, the arranged pap shots of them (him scowling, her posing) were not in keeping with their script, so the press was invited back to undo the images. He’s the producer and arranges this..ever seen him invite press to other films? Would director Jodie foster allow this? Don’t be silly. Note that everything that was questioned in last week’s shots..his mood, their obvious distance, even her baggy jeans..have been corrected. If you think these shots just happened, you don’t know pr.
Jodie Foster was a closet case for years, so yeah, she would probably allow Clooney to pap his fake marriage on set. She benefits at the box office if he can pass as straight for what’s left of his female fan base.
She does have very skinny legs and no hips now which I imagine are tough to dress. The fit of the denim capris is better but those shoes make me worry she will trip and snap one of her fragile looking ankles. I think her best bet is to just go with a nice tailored dress pant. If she can afford daily blow outs surely she can pay someone to tailor her clothes to fit her extremely thin frame.
yikes! those earrings, and you guys are right, all the weight loss is making her look rather haggard, she usually looks a bit more glowy…
“Get back to the cave ” is just as offensive as “get back to the kitchen”. Quit it. Attack Mike any way you want but don’t make it sexist, at the very least be aware there’s other men that post here too. I just don’t want to be exposed to casual sexism involving either gender.
Amal maybe weighs only about 5 kilos/10 pounds less than me and I look like a baby bird at that lower weight. Her facial bones and facial ligaments are kind of prominent, I know that’s her actual facial structure but a teensy bit more weight would soften that. I cant imagine she wouldn’t have the best facial care money could buy but maybe she could do with a vitamin c supplement (3000 mg per day is enough to produce collagen in the skin for people over 40). Not that she doesn’t look lovely, IMO.
She’s a grown woman and has her own personal style- I wonder how she dressed before she married George? I’m not sure I like all of the structured designer stuff on her. I don’t really like this particular casual look, maybe it IS the earrings throwing it off. Or maybe it’s the colour of the top, too pale? I’m trying to think what colours would look best on her, jewel colours would be too strong, maybe autumn colours? What season is she anyway? She looks great in her court robes, though.
She looks very happy in pretty much every picture I see of her, which is nice.
Interesting. I didn’t see that as a sexist remark. There were cave women, too. I thought it was just sort of like “crawl back under your rock,” or similar. Not arguing with you, I just didn’t realize it might be interpreted that way.
I think she’s a Winter.
What a strange headline because her jeans do not fit at all.
True but they do fit better than the super baggy styles she’s worn before, these are a more fitted style at least.
Thanks @boredblond. Another Do Over from last week: the barrage of pre-emptive comments right out of the gate to bolster the official fiction and counter criticism….that wasn’t even there. Ladies and gentlemen batten down the hatches this Team will not rest, the sword will not sleep in their hand!
Huh?
I realize these photos were taken outside (harsh lighting, bad angles, etc.), but the first thing that caught my attention is how haggard he looks.
When not comparing him to JFK Jr. (a comparison I have never understood), some try to compare him to Cary Grant. CG looked more refreshed and youthful in his late 70s than GC does right now (IMO). CG just looked like a well aged version of his younger self. GC just looks —- well, haggard and worn down. It’s hard to believe he is only in his early 50s. Hopefully this is just an ‘aging spurt’ and not indicative of anything else.

LOL
I think she’s a lovely person and really very pretty. She’s a newlywed and wants to be close and see her husband, like anyone else. His face lites up (as does hers) when they see each other. Good for them!
Love her outfit! I’d wear that! Well, I probably wouldn’t wear those D&G earrings, they look too heavy and I don’t want stretched ear lobes. But the top, the denim crops and the shoes – yessir, I love those!
Can he not afford food for this woman?
I have to agree with Mike–these are the worst pictures EVER of Amal! I have praised her look on here in the past, but this profile shot of her is horrid, & haggard!
I think whatever is going on in this marriage – why they want all this publicity I had no idea or much interest anymore (after the Kardashian level updates) it appears to be both making them both sick. He looks dreadful – he has aged incredibly over the last year (someone mentioned that he had the tox/fillers etc for the wedding of the century and its worn off anyway) and she is incredibly scarily under weight. I would be alarmed/scared for her health. This isn’t body shaming that woman looks ill and he looks ancient. Whatever the game is – the pressure, stress etc looks like it is affecting or is it effecting – I always get confused – them both physically.
Hi cb!
I’d love to have more news about Jack O’Connell if that is possible for you and if that interest other people, just an idea 😉
xoxo
By the way i think Clooney choose Amal because she’s one of the brightest and most intelligent woman of her generation, going from Keibler to Alamuddin is enough to understand his expectations about women.
The pr teams promoting this marriage and amal alamuddin as being a truly lovely person have won this round. They are only doing their jobs and probably don’t even know the real reasons why they are being told to push this bogus marriage. It looks like he is acting in these photos and it literally takes seconds to snap a round of them. Pick the ones that will best tell the story will be written and advance the agenda. Collect paycheck.
I understand your post and, mainly, agree; except this: “The pr teams promoting this marriage and amal alamuddin as being a truly lovely person have won this round.”. You must have been reading different comments above, AND different sites re: this too, because the negativity towards this all being so obviously fake and PR driven is increasing with each staged photo-op.
People sense they are being sold BS and, worst, that the Clooney team in continuing with this are still intent on taking Joe/Joesphine Smo for mugs. Baria’s team are now lost in a whirlwind of just trying to comment on everyone doubting the narrative as “jealous”; this despite so many clear and credible inaccuracies underpinning this whole charade.
A fake life constructed upon PR hype is nothing much for anyone to feel jealous of in a world of real reality, outside of Clooney promoted myth. I’m just bunkered down for the haul based on interest simply out of curiosity as to how far they will keep pushing it.
I posted that comment earlier in the day when it seemed that most of the comments were way over-the-top in praise of the most wonderfulicious Amal. I don’t read many of the other sites because the whole thing has grown tiresome to me. Also, it’s offensive to me how much time, effort and cold hard cash (regardless of Clooney’s wealth) has gone into promoting this sham marriage considering that there are real issues in his life that he hasn’t fixed.
As for the pr team accusing posters of being jealous or nasty they should look in the mirror. They to love insult Clooney’s former girlfriends whether it’s directly or by insinuation. I’m neither inclined to bash Keibler, Canalis or any of the others or to sing their praises, however I will in this case. A couple examples, Stacy Keibler is no dummy, read somewhere that she graduated Cum Laude from some University in Maryland, she has a great figure and wears clothes extremely well. Canalis has great taste in her clothing choices and also wears them well. I am betting that they have other positive traits as well and I bet better ones than Ms. Alamuddin.
Forget the jeans. I’m more horrified that Amal stole LeAnn Rimes’ fringe purse! Eeek!
Here’s my two cents: I think Kamp Klooney-tunes realized that George looked grumpy and insufficiently in luuuurve during Amaleficent’s last “surprise” set visit. So they orchestrated another one and, like Mr. Roarke on Fantasy Island, dictated “Smiles, everyone, smiles!”
As to the Carolyn Bessette comparisons? Yeah……..no. Amal is way too thirsty and try-hard, whereas Carolyn was intensely private and averse to publicity. Really, the only commonalities I see are designer-friendly (i.e. tall, super skinny) bodies and unlimited access due to who they married.
I still think Amal looks happy- which she very well may be for any number of reasons.
But George looks *desperately* happy. I agree it looks like he’s acting- and not terribly convincingly- in those photos, but there’s only so much you can tell from stills anyway, really.
My usually VERY reliable gaydar has never registered any pings for George- and I’d love it if he was gay- totally my type (although there’s a lot of range in ‘my type’). I’d never considered it before I read this thread. Marriage of convenience? Hmmm.
“Marriage of convenience…hmmm?” Doubtful.
