George Clooney's wife delighted he's a silver fox again
George Clooney's wife is thrilled he's got rid of his "drug dealer" hair style.
The 64-year-old actor had died his hair black for his run in Good Night, and Good Luck on Broadway but now his stint on stage has ended, George has reverted back to his usual short grey look, and no one could be happier than his spouse Amal Clooney.
Speaking on the red carpet at the Tony Awards at New York's Radio City Music Hall on Sunday (08.06.25), George told People and Entertainment Weekly: 'Oh man, my wife was the happiest person when I came home after the play today and I'd cut all the hair off.
"Because, you know, I looked like a drug dealer with that bad black dye job.'
Good Night, and Good Luck, made history when its penultimate performance on Saturday (07.06.25) became the first time a live Broadway show has been simultaneously televised and George - who lost out on the Best Actor in a Play award to Oh Mary! star Cole Escola - was "excited" that the CNN broadcast allowed "more people see it than just the people in Broadway".
He added: "I thought it wouldn't be bad for other people to be able to see this and see it at home for free.'
The former E.R. star praised Amal - with whom he has eight-year-old twins Ella and Alexander - for her ongoing support and celebrated her as the "bravest human being" he has ever met.
He told E! News of the human rights lawyer: 'I have this incredible partner who I couldn't be more proud of.
"She's the bravest human being I've ever met in my life. I am deeply proud of her and the fact that she's in any way proud of me, if just, I can't believe how lucky I am.'
The couple's twins are hoping their dad can introduce them to Taylor Swift one day, but George admitted he is always amused by the fact the youngsters never recognise the hugely famous people they often cross paths with.
He said:'They want to see Taylor Swift. The funniest part is that they have no idea of references. Robert DeNiro will be at the house and they're like 'Who's that?' They don't care.'
George previously admitted Amal, 47, wasn't a fan of his dark hair and had told him she would be "glad when it's gone".
He told 'Late Night' host Seth Meyers earlier this month: 'It looks like [I'm] going through some horrible midlife crisis. I'm 64 — midlife is a little stretch...
"We do a matinee, and then by the time we go to the Tonys that night, it'll be gone. I may have a shaved head.'

Nicole Scherzinger was 'never satisfied' with career
Nicole Scherzinger was "never satisfied" with herself until she landed her role in Sunset Boulevard. The former Pussycat Dolls singer - who first played Norma Desmond in the revival in London's West End before transferring over to New York's Broadway - credits the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical for changing her life because she didn't think she'd achieved her "full potential" before stepping onto the stage in the show. Speaking on the red carpet at the Tony Awards on Sunday (08.06.25), Nicole told E! News: 'I always felt like I wasn't living in my full potential, my full purpose, and I was never happy with myself, never satisfied. 'It's because I knew I had so much more to give, and this role in this opportunity allowed me to give all of me, and it's changed my life, and I'm so grateful for it.' The 46-year-old star believes her work on Sunset Blvd. - for which she won the Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical - has helped her find a better way to "connect" with people, She said: 'I'm so grateful that I'm able to connect with people on a deeper, soulful, spiritual level, that I could make a difference in these people's lives, because that's what we do it for. "That's exactly what we do it for. So I'm just so thankful.' But Nicole doesn't believe she could have handled her gruelling stage schedule without her faith. She said: 'I'm still tired because I just finished a matinee and cried my eyes out in that performance. I'm just grateful. 'I'm grateful to God, because God has carried me when I wanted to give up, and he has held me through this entire process. So I give all the glory to Him. Already. It's a very been a very healing process for me.' During her acceptance speech at the Tony Awards, Nicole urged people not to "give up" on their dreams. She said: "Growing up, I always felt like I didn't belong, but you all have made me feel like I belong and I have come home at last. "So if there is anyone who feels like they don't belong or your time hasn't come, don't give up. Just keep on giving and giving because the world needs your love and light more than ever. This is a testament that love always wins." The former X Factor judge - who previously won an Olivier Award for Best Actress when she plated the role in London - fought off competition from Death Becomes Her stars Megan Hilty and Jennifer Simard, Audra McDonald for her role in Gypsy, Boop actress Jasmine Amy Rogers to collect the coveted prize.

Brooke Shields reveals how her Tony Awards clutch bag has special connection to theatre
Brooke Shields took a clutch bag made from theatre curtains to the Tony Awards. The 60-year-old actress made an appearance at the annual ceremony honouring Broadway theatre on Sunday (08.06.25) evening at the Radio City Music Hall, and revealed that the red bag she carried with her was made from curtains that once hung at the famed venue before its renovation. She told PEOPLE: "When they renovated Radio City [Music Hall], like, 10 years ago, they tore down all the curtains, and then they made bags out of them, and my husband gave me — bought me a bag." The Blue Lagoon star - who has been married to Chris Henchy since 2001 and has daughters Rowan, 22, and 19-year-old Grier with him - has previosuly starred in productions of Grease, Cabaret, Chicago and The Addams Family over the course of her career, but thinks that she "never work on Broadway again" as she concentrates on her new role as president of Actors' Equity Association. Earlier this year, the former Hannah Montana star celebrated her milestone 60th birthday, and explained at the time that she hoped her book, Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old would spark fresh conversations about beauty ideals. She told Real Simple magazine: "I hope it opens up a conversation about what the ideals are and what beauty really means. The more I talked to women who are over 40, the more I realised that part of chasing youth is not just for themselves, but for other people. It's for partners, it's for the way you're looked at in public, and it's a dangerous, slippery slope. "We're not allowed to just grow and experience our life and be OK with it. "Beauty can come in different forms. It doesn't have to be associated with youth."
