George Clooney’s $20 Lemonade

A group of grade schoolers in Tobaccoville, North Carolina decided to setup a lemonade stand on their spring break to earn a little extra cash. The children were said to have had the hottest real estate in town—a spot of grass right outside of the entrance to George Clooney’s movie set.

The Hollywood star paid $20 for a glass of lemonade (the going rate was 25 cents), and didn’t want any change.  This left Carter, Chandler, and Chase Fontaine shocked to see a $20 bill in their jar.

George Clooney Takes Out Reese Witherspoon

George Clooney has been linked to numerous women throughout the years, with the most recent being Pamela Anderson. Clooney simply laughed at these rumors and laid them to rest after being spotted out and about with another famous blonde.

This time, the potential object of his attentions is newly single Reese Witherspoon, who recently divorced actor Ryan Phillipe. And, yes… there is an age difference of about 20 years that surely will be the focal point of the media if things materialize.

The two were spotted dining at Casa Vega, in Sherman Oaks, California, where, according to reports, they discussed a film project.
