Actor George Clooney pledged on Friday to help his friend and fellow thespian Matt Damon shape up to reclaim the title of “sexiest man alive.”
“Matt is very competitive with
both Brad [Pitt] and myself, and Brad and I are two-time ‘sexiest men alive,’ and Matt’s only won it that one time, and I kinda consider that a fluke,” Clooney said.
“Having seen him recently, he’s got a lot of work to do if he wants to get back up there,” he said. “But I’m going to work with him and he’s going to run a strong campaign this year.”
Damon was named “sexiest man alive” by People magazine in 2007,
for his piercing blue eyes and family-
guy demeanor.
But he gained almost 13.5kg eating pizza and drinking beer for his latest role as a whistle-blower in film The Informant! — the last time Clooney saw him.
Since then, Damon has shed the weight. — agencies
