He was only supposed to take questions from the reporters, but suddenly George Clooney was taking in a whole lot more when a fake journalist began stripping off his clothes and professing his love right to the Cloon's face!
It all went down in Italy earlier today when the dude snuck into the presser for the Venice Film Festival by posing as a reporter. But once he got the mic, the clothes came off and he started yelling things like, "Please, take me George!"
Clooney played it cool -- tellin' the not-so-studly stripper "You know, the tie looks good."

His hand may be broken and locked in a temporary cast -- but George Clooney is still one lucky S.O.B.
How lucky? Just look at his girlfriend ... and that private helicopter they took for a trip to Venice, Italy.

George Clooney is gearing up for a legal war in Italy -- claiming invasive paparazzi climbed over the wall of his Italian home and shot a topless photo of a 13-year-old girl changing in one of his guest rooms.
The photographer also took shots of Clooney and his girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis enjoying private moments in the yard of his estate.
The photos were published in two magazines -- and in a statement to TMZ, Clooney says he's gunning to sue both the mags and the photog who took the pictures.
"We're suing two magazines AND a photographer. I don't know about the law in the United States but in Italy it's illegal for photographers to climb over my wall and to take long lens pictures of a 13-year-old girl in her bedroom.
I draw the line of privacy at that."
--George Clooney

George Clooney rode around Lake Como on his three-wheel motorcycle on Monday.
After his motorcycle crash in 2007, you can't blame the 48-year-old for playing it safe.

Good news everyone -- George Clooney is alive and well ... just like Jeff Goldblum and Natalie Portman.
For some reason, some seriously messed up people at fakeawish.com dropped some evil rumors that Clooney was the latest star to croak this week ... and now, we've learned the fake stories have caused some serious concern within his circles.
TMZ spoke with Clooney's publicist, Stan Rosenfield, who told us he's been bombarded by frantic calls from legitimate media outlets and some of Clooney's friends who were genuinely shaken by reports of Clooney's death.
With the rash of actual celebrity deaths in the last few weeks, "death pranks" are at an all-time high -- but the people who are starting these terrible lies ... they're still the lowest of the low.

A Vespa-riding George Clooney was stopped by the police in Lake Como, Italy today -- but the only shot of his mug the cops took was for their own personal collection.
We're not sure why he attracted the fuzz's attention -- except maybe for his overall Clooneyness -- but they seemed more interested in getting autographs and selfies with the actor than bringing him down to the station.

Rande Gerber's sexual harassment lawsuit is about to get even sexier -- George Clooney will take the stand. Put another way, he's testifying against the chicks, so they may as well fold now.
Gerber, along with a couple of his employees, are being sued for sexual harassment -- allegedly kissing and fondling two former waitresses. Gerber calls the claims a "blatant lie" and he's even got witnesses to prove it -- including Mr. Clooney himself.
A rep for Gerber tells us, "Mr. Gerber and Mr. Clooney are willing to take a lie detector tests to prove that the allegations against Mr. Gerber are false. Mr. Gerber will not settle this extortion case even for a single dollar and will take all actions necessary to clear his name, including filing a $10 million lawsuit for malicious prosecution once these allegations are proven false."
Case closed.
UPDATE -- Through his rep, Clooney tells us, "I was with Rande the entire night -- as were a lot of people -- they will all say the same thing that I'm saying. This event never happened. Period."

Ever since his time as George Clooney's Boy Wonder came to a universally panned end, Chris O'Donnell says he and his "Batman & Robin" co-stars don't really call each other anymore...
Wonder why?

For a few hours last night, Barack Obama had some serious competition as White House hottie -- in the form of George Clooney.
Clooney cleared dog-sniffing security to meet up with VP Joe Biden and the Prez at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. to discuss the Darfur crisis.
More importantly though ...
