George Clooney Roasts His Hair Color, Even His Kids Can’t Stop Laughing

George Clooney is keeping it real, even when it comes to his not-so-beloved new hair color.

The 63-year-old Hollywood heartthrob was honored Thursday with a caricature at Manhattan’s iconic Sardi’s restaurant, joining a wall of fame lined with legends like Barbra Streisand, Neil Patrick Harris, and Sutton Foster.

But George Clooney couldn’t help but poke fun at one major detail in the artwork: the hair.

“I like the hair color. It’s much better than my hair color right now,” he quipped as the portrait was unveiled. “That’s better. It’s gray, mostly gray. There we are, thank you so much.”

Clooney’s new dark brown locks, a far cry from the silver fox status that made him one of Tinseltown’s most enduring crushes, are for his role as journalist Edward R. Murrow in the Broadway adaptation of "Good Night, and Good Luck." And yes, he’s fully aware of how it’s landing.

“My wife is going to hate it because nothing makes you look older than when an older guy dyes his hair,” Clooney previously told The New York Times, referring to his glamorous wife, Amal Clooney. “My kids are going to just laugh at me nonstop,” he added of their 7-year-old twins, Alexander and Ella.

During the ceremony at Sardi’s, Clooney also joked that when signing his caricature, he wrote “Brad Pitt” instead of his own name, a nod to his longtime bromance with his "Ocean’s Eleven" and "Burn After Reading" co-star.

Clooney first debuted the darker 'do in March during a preview for "Good Night, and Good Luck," and it’s been raising eyebrows ever since.

"Well, it's scary. But, you know, I haven't done a play in 40 years, so it's one of those things where, and I've never done the Broadway play, so I'm, of course, you know, petrified to do it," Clooney told reporters of his Broadway debut. "But it's not such a bad thing being 63 and doing something that you don't feel both your feet are firmly on the ground."

In "Good Night, and Good Luck," Clooney shares the stage with a talented ensemble, featuring Mac Brandt as Colonel Anderson, Will Dagger as Don Hewitt, Christopher Denham as John Aaron, Glenn Fleshler as Friendly, Ilana Glazer as Shirley Wershba, Clark Gregg as Don Hollenbeck, and Paul Gross as William F. Paley.

The cast also includes Georgia Heers as Ella, Carter Hudson as Joe Wershba, Fran Kranz as Palmer Williams, Jennifer Morris as Millie Green, Michael Nathanson as Eddie Scott, Andrew Polk as Charlie Mack, and Aaron Roman Weiner as Don Surine.

Clooney may be known as Hollywood’s smooth-talking silver fox, but behind the scenes, things allegedly got very un-Clooney-like.

According to explosive claims in the new book "Uncharted: How Trump Beat Biden, Harris and the Odds in the Wildest Campaign in History" and reporting by journalist Tara Palmeri, the Oscar-winning actor lost it after "Morning Joe" co-host Mika Brzezinski suggested on-air that Barack Obama was the real force behind Clooney’s bombshell op-ed calling for President Joe Biden to bow out of the 2024 race.

The now-infamous July 11 segment aired shortly after Clooney’s New York Times essay dropped like a political grenade, sending shockwaves through Hollywood and Washington alike.

“This wasn’t George Clooney,” Brzezinski said during the broadcast, according to Page Six. “I think that Barack Obama has a lot of influence, and I think that there’s, there’s a lot there.”

Clooney reportedly flipped out.

Author Chris Whipple writes that the actor immediately called a "Morning Joe" producer, who also happened to be a personal friend, and unleashed a profanity-laced tirade.

“His phone lit up and it’s George Clooney, a good friend of his, and Clooney went absolutely ballistic,” Whipple claims. “What ensued was an exchange of F-bombs for, you know, several minutes.”

Clooney was allegedly furious that no one on the show challenged Brzezinski’s theory that Obama had orchestrated the editorial. “‘You [f-cked] me. You’re my friend. You should have stood up for me,’” Clooney reportedly yelled at the producer.

But the producer wasn’t exactly rolling out the red carpet for Clooney’s rage.

“‘George, it’s just not a movie, where you go script page to script page,’” the staffer allegedly fired back. Clooney’s response? “F-ck you.” To which the producer reportedly clapped back, “‘[F–k] yourself.’”

“I’ve got to give it to the producer,” Palmeri wrote in her Red Letter Substack. “Not a lot of them would probably shout back at an A-list actor like that.”

Clooney has not publicly commented on those reports.
