George Clooney For President

The Leatherheads star was amazing shocked when he received the threatening voicemail telling him to "dump the b***h", referencing his lover Sarah Larson, he enlisted help of former police officer chauffeur tracing the call to a pre-paid cell phone.

In the message, a middle-aged man can be heard saying: "Dude, your friends asked me to give you a message - dump the b***h before you're sorry!"

George has been dating Las Vegas cocktail waitress Sarah since last year, but the 29-year-old beauty is unconcerned by the threat.

After George played it to her for the first time, in front of New Yorker magazine writer Ian Parker, a surprised Sarah said, "Before you're sorry?"

Sarah claims she has been the focus of many false stories involving her Las Vegas past, adding: "They say that I'm a stripper. There's a ton of stuff about that. I've never been a stripper. You know, just because I'm from Las Vegas, I must be a stripper. Because I'm a cocktail server, that means I'm an escort."

George, 46, denied the call could be the latest in a series of pranks played by close friends Brad Pitt and Matt Damon, insisting: "It's not a prank - none of my friends would do that."

After tracing the call, George and his driver attempted to discover if the suspect had used a credit card to pay for the phone, but soon reached a dead end in their investigation.

The Hollywood star - who filmed documentary A Journey to Darfur with his father Nick Clooney about Sudan's crises - revealed he was robbed by children brandishing AK47 rifles as he passed through a vehicle checkpoint in the North African country in 2006.

He said: "We were in southern Sudan and going through a checkpoint and there were all these young kids with AK47s. They went through the car and took what they wanted.

"We hid all our tapes and stuff but they pointed the guns at us and stole what they could. It happens all the time."

Clooney - who has travelled to Sudan in his role as a United Nations Messenger of Peace to highlight the plight of the country's refugees - joked his assailants did not recognise him because "they don't have great TV out there".

Since 2003, thousands of people have been killed in the Darfur region of the country by the Sudanese military and the government-sponsored militia known as the Janjaweed.

Clooney has previously asked the world's most powerful countries to help ease Sudan's problems.

He said: "There are innocent people there being put in harms way in the most brutal of fashions. The world needs to step up.

"People need to come forward and say 'genocide is taking place'."

  • I am thinking Sarah could drink George under the table!!! He might have had a difficult keeping up with a 29 year old!

  • I just saw him in a commercial promoting UN troops. Doesn't he know the list of members in the UN reads like the Who's who of the terrorist world? The UN has been trying to destroy the US and our Constitutional rights for years. Is this their way of trying to desensitize US to UN troops policing the USA? Christ, this is like George Orwell's 1984!

  • He needs to have his coming out party already!
