George Clooney Get Dirty Campaigning For Award Recognition

George Clooney Get Dirty Campaigning For Award Recognition

Poor George Clooney says that he feels unclean after awards season. The 50-year-old Clooney began humanitarian work in Sudan in 2005 after campaigning to be recognized for his movie achievements left him feeling the need to do something more meaningful and beneficial to the world.

George says: I had just come out of Oscar season and you really do campaign, like kissing babies. By the time its over, you sort of feel unclean. You want to do something that makes you feel better.

Following his first trip to the war-torn country with his father, George donated money to build a well and huts, but soon learned that others means to help might be more useful.

He explained: A year later, the next-door villagers, who wanted water and needed shelter, killed some people to get to that well and shelter. Its devastating. We have to be very careful sometimes helping is not throwing money at a problem.

George believes other celebrities should follow his lead and use their positions to help the world.

He added to Marie Claire magazine: There is ever more attention on celebrity than ever and there is a use for that besides selling products.

We cant make policy but we can encourage politicians more than ever before.
