It was quite the scene at George Clooney‘s villa in Italy today after a huge bomb scare threatened the lives of everyone around it. Okay I’m over-exaggerating, a lot.
While it may have not been a huge drama, there was a bomb-scare at his Italian villa today after military were called to recover about 500 pounds of hand grenades, mortars, and aircraft bombs from World War II were found by a fisherman in Lake Como which is just outside his villa.
Military and a bunch of divers were called on site to remove the bombs from the lake, a source said: “This is a very complex operation as the munitions have been in the water for a long time and are unstable.’That’s why we have taken the precaution of sealing off the entire area around the recovery operation and then the munitions will be taken to a cave where they will be safely detonated.”
It’s unknown if George Clooney was at his home or not but Donatella Versace also owns a villa in the same area.

You know those Hollywood men that drive women crazy and drive us men crazy for a very different reason because they are rich and just all around perfect? Well here is a list of some Hollywood guys that we actually love as much as women do because they actually seem like they would be fun to hang out with, well in my opinion anyway.
1. George Clooney
George Clooney is the quintessential guy’s guy. Not only is he popular with the ladies, but he’s into practical jokes, always seems in control and he likes fast cars and motorcycles. In Ocean’s 11, he made every guy want to be part of his crew, and on the red carpet he makes men think about how cool they would look in a tuxedo.
2. Leonardo Dicaprio
In 1998, after starring in the guy-Krypton Oscar winner Titanic, Leo’s cherubic face was plastered across teeny bopper magazines that ruined his rep with everyday bros. Thanks to some judicious role selection and a three-movie run with Martin Scorcese, Leonardo has since redeemed himself in the eyes of guys everywhere.
3. Denzel Washington
Ever since he came on the scene with his breakout role in the 1983 movie Cry Freedom, Denzel Washington has been walking the line between swoon-worthy hunk and politically-aware intellectual. Along the way, Denzel landed in movies like Training Day and American Gangster that showed just how badass this intellectual hunk can be.
4. James Franco
It might be his self-deprecating sense of humor or the fact that Judd Apatow just makes him seem so damn likeable, but for whatever reason James Franco transcends heartthrob status and is in with the guys. Sure he was named “Sexiest Man Living” by Salon.com, but he was also hilarious in the guy-centric Pineapple Express.
5. Robert Redford
Robert Redford may be past his full-on hunk days, but he still pulls off a rugged sense of cool that’s been much-emulated and rarely achieved. It helps his status with guys that he made probably the best buddy cowboy movie ever with Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.
6. Jon Hamm
It’s hard to believe that Jon Hamm’s breakout role in Mad Men came just three years ago. Since then, Jon has hosted Saturday Night Live twice and landed on both People and Salon.com’s lists of sexiest men. But don’t confuse him with his alter ego. Jon is quick to warn people off looking up to Don Draper too much and says he’s actually nothing like the brooding leading man.
7. Benicio del Toro
Benicio del Toro has said he doesn’t see himself as a hunk and he doesn’t know why he ends up on lists like these, but admits he’s always been popular with the ladies. His roles in guy favorites like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and Sin City, have helped make him a hit on both sides of the gender divide.
8. Brad Pitt
Brad Pitt is the cool guy that guys want to hang out with. Sure he’d probably always win the attention of the hottest girl in the room, but he’d also be a really awesome wingman. Brad won over the ladies first in Legends of the Fall, but by the time he played Tyler Durden in Fight Club, the guys couldn’t resist. He gets bonus points with guys for growing ill-conceived facial hair.
9. Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp is a one-of-a-kind cultural anomoly. He’s spent the better part of his career enjoying full-on heartthrob status. He’s flirted with androgyny. He spends about half his time in France and has insulted the United States in interviews. And still he’s adored by guys and girls alike. How could this be? Simple. Guys love pirates.
10. Robert Downey Jr.
Robert Downey, Jr. has some serious demons in his past, but that just seems to give him character. Not only is he the guy that guys would love to party with, he’s the guy whose stories would actually be interesting. He’s got a cocky attitude that works for him somehow, leading future co-star Chris Evans to remark, “I don’t think anybody tells Downey what to do, and that’s what makes [him] Downey.”
11. Jamie Foxx
Jamie Foxx has shamelessly played up his lady’s man status throughout his career, and while the way he’s pandered to the audience doesn’t earn him cool points, somehow it hasn’t hurt him either. Jamie got an inexplicable Mike Tyson-like head tattoo, he’s trotted out his Oscar-winning Ray Charles impression more than once for pop music, and yet he’s still cool enough to get Ron Howard to show up in his music video.
12. Paul Rudd
Look at his resume and you’ll quickly realize Paul Rudd has one of the coolest filmographies in Hollywood. He had his breakout in the 1995 chick flick Clueless, and more recently he starred alongside Jason Segal in I Love You, Man, which is basically how guys feel when they see him play his everybro schtick for laughs on the big screen.
13. Justin Timberlake
Sure he got his start making teenage girls scream with N*Sync, but with the help of a haircut, some snappy clothes, and a “D— in a Box,” J.T. successfully reinvented his image as guy friendly.
14. Alec Baldwin
How do you win over guys and girls alike? Being good looking and hilarious has worked out for Alec Baldwin. Tina Fey saved his career, but before 30 Rock, Alec’s mix of charm and quick wit was cracking up SNL fans with sketches like his classic “Schweddy Balls.
When you put a bunch of Hollywood stars together in a movie there is bound to be some egos clashing, most of the time they all get on with it and act professionally or the studio keeps it under wraps. This is not always the case, here is the biggest fights and feuds that have happened on-set of a movie.
Lily Tomlin vs. David O. Russell, “I Heart Huckabeesâ€
After watching Tomlin’s sour attitude and director Russell’s epic freakouts on the set of “I Heart Huckabees,” it’s hard to tell which person started the downward slide. Was it Tomlin, whose impatience with all the changes Russell was suggesting seemed to indicate she was having a senior moment and couldn’t keep up? Or was it Russell, who might have written a more solid script to begin with and maybe should’ve thought twice before calling his leading lady a bitch or a c*** in front of the cast and crew. Pity poor Jason Schwartzman, Dustin Hoffman, Isabelle Huppert and especially the cringing, giggling Naomi Watts, who had to sit there as the abuse flew perilously close to their heads. But hooray for whoever caught this dysfunctional mess on tape. It’s infinitely more gripping than the movie.
George Clooney vs. David O. Russell, “Three Kingsâ€
Russell has a hard time pleading that what happened with Tomlin wasn’t like him, since five years earlier he got into a feud with Clooney on the set of the Gulf War satire “Three Kings” that led to Clooney punching his lights out. In fairness to Russell, he told Clooney to punch him. In fairness to Clooney, Russell was picking on the little people on the set – an extra here, a driver there – and Clooney got so tired of it, he wrote Russell an angry letter and then took to giving him a piece of his mind directly in front of his face. We think that second assistant director Paul F. Bernard had the right idea – he walked off the set when he witnessed this nonsense, quitting his job on the spot. But Ice Cube, who played a soldier alongside Clooney, said the on-set conflict gave the final scenes of the film extra juice and he “wouldn’t mind if the director and the star got into an argument on all of my movies.” Yeah, but Cube’s from South Central Los Angeles, so “Conflict” is his middle name. We’re just sorry no one caught this sandbox quarrel on tape and made a disco remix out of it.
Christian Bale vs. Shane Hurlbut, “Terminator Salvationâ€
“What don’t you f***ing understand, Shane?” Don’t you know it’s unconscionable for a Director of Photography to walk where an actor can – gasp! – see him? Even if said Director of Photography was just doing his job, fiddling with some lights, setting up a shot? Bale was concentrating really, really hard on filming a scene in “Terminator Salvation” when unlucky Hurlbut got in the way and got a four-minute, expletive-heavy earful about what a horrible person he was and how he needed to be fired, that instant. Lucky for us, someone taped it. Even luckier, someone else turned the rant into an awesome disco remix. Bale’s career has yet to recover – surely no one’s thinking of hiring him for a romantic comedy or to play a hapless single dad anytime soon. Although, Bale is next set to star in “The Fighter” directed by (wait for it) David O. Russell. Maybe they should shorten the title by a couple of letters and call it a day.
Kim Cattrall vs. Sarah Jessica Parker, “Sex and the Cityâ€
Reports of on-set bitchiness between Cattrall and Parker are so frequent, there’s got to be some truth to them, right? During production of the movie sequel spun from the hit HBO series, “sources” were busy telling sites like icelebz.com and snarkerati.com that “while the cast is all smiles on the outside, the level of dislike is unbelievable,” making “co-stars Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis dread coming into work.” One site claims Cattrall’s irritability over her recent break-up with her younger chef lover means she’s “taking every chance to snipe.” Another says Parker was overwhelmed having to care for her newborn twins and was “too busy to comfort Kim or worry about her problems at the moment.” Both ladies officially scoff at these reports. Parker said to Elle magazine recently that “I don’t think anybody wants to believe that I love Kim. I adore her. I wouldn’t have done the movie without her. Didn’t and wouldn’t.” She should’ve added “couldn’t,” seeing as Cattrall is one of the core four, after all. Cattrall has always wielded her power mercenarily, using it to demand higher pay and to confirm the sequel before Parker could. If only they’d bring this catfight onto the big screen – that might make the sequel worth watching. Barely.
Sean Young vs. Darryl Hannah, Charlie Sheen and Oliver Stone, “Wall Streetâ€
Before Sean Young made an idiot of herself showing up on a studio lot in a Catwoman outfit to beg for a part in the next “Batman” movie, she made herself into a pariah by suggesting that she should get another actress’s role… while that actress was filming it. It was on the set of Oliver Stone’s “Wall Street” that Darryl Hannah was allegedly struggling to play Charlie Sheen’s materialistic girlfriend. Stone later admitted “Hannah was not happy doing the role and I should have let her go. All my crew wanted to get rid of her after one day of shooting. My pride was such that I kept saying I was going to make it work.” Young, who had the smaller role of Michael Douglas’s wife, had no interest in making things work: she told Stone to fire Hannah and give her the plum part instead. Sheen protested Young’s antics in grade four fashion – he taped a note to her back that read “I am a c***.” Young paraded around with that sign for hours before noticing. Stone also got so fed up with Young that he wrapped one of her scenes early and had her dumped at the bus station. Long after the movie came out, Stone agreed with Young that he should’ve swapped Young and Hannah’s roles. But it’s not like he, or anyone else of any distinction, has ever hired Young again.
Debra Winger vs. Shirley MacLaine, “Terms of Endearmentâ€
Speaking of grade four hijinks, have you heard the one where Debra Winger flipped up her skirt and serenaded her onscreen mother Shirley MacLaine with her, um, wind instrument while they filmed “Terms of Endearment”? These two were at odds almost from the moment they met in writer-director James L. Brooks’ apartment. MacLaine remembers thinking “Oh my goodness” when she saw Winger clomp in dressed in combat boots and a miniskirt. Their characters were supposed to be at odds, too, so presumably Brooks indulged their feud. Lord knows how far things actually went. Winger recently copped to getting into fisticuffs with MacLaine, telling CBS News Sunday Morning that “there might have been a scuffle. I don’t remember. I mean, we were wild, you know.” Oh, we know. Thanks be to gossip, we know.
Kim Basinger and Alec Baldwin vs. Everyone, “The Marrying Manâ€
Baldwin fell in love with Basinger while making the romantic comedy “The Marrying Man” in 1991 and became a married man himself shortly after. But if you know anything about how bitter their custody battle is, you can guess how volatile their courtship was. According to reports from flabbergasted crew members, between takes Basinger would tell Baldwin exactly what she wanted to do to him later in bed, not caring that other people could hear. She also didn’t wear underwear and often sat spread-eagled, forcing assistants to throw towels over her legs, and perhaps some crew members to walk around covering their own legs. Meanwhile, Baldwin would throw things whenever a scene didn’t go his way, at one point almost hitting an electrician with a chair. One crew member said, “You’ve read about all the tantrums, the chair-throwing, the phone-smashing. Living it was 100 times worse. If Baldwin slammed a door, Basinger would slam another door harder. It was like they were two little kids, having a contest to see who could be the brattiest.” A senior crew guy called their behaviour “vile, deplorable, despicable” and claimed that “if I were destitute and living on the street with no food and somebody offered me a million dollars to work with Alec and Kim, I’d pass.” Screenwriter Neil Simon also hated the experience of working with them. “With a play, I have only two people to please – myself and the director,” he said. “With this movie, it was 19 executives, a director who’d never done anything but animation before, and two stars who would tell you what lines they’d say and what lines they wouldn’t say.” Needless to say, the movie flopped. Too much drama behind the scenes, not enough left for onscreen.
Marlon Brando vs. Frank Oz, “The Scoreâ€
Oz was the voice of Miss Piggy. Brando had become a big piggy. They worked together for awhile on the heist flick “The Score” in 2001, until Brando got so fed up with being told to tone down his flamboyant performance as a homosexual crook that he started calling Oz “Miss Piggy” and telling him, “f*** you.” Other stunts the legendary actor pulled include: bringing in a note from his doctor saying he’s allergic to Oz so that he wouldn’t have to be in the same room as him; refusing to take direction from anyone but Robert De Niro, so Oz had to watch from offsite and send notes to De Niro via an assistant director; and taking off his pants so Oz had to shoot him from the waist up only. Oz later made this legendary understatement: “When you deal with someone like Marlon, you expect quirkiness.” If by “quirky” he means “jerky,” we totally agree.
Bill Murray vs. Lucy Liu, “Charlie’s Angelsâ€
We saved the best for last. Do you know why Bill Murray was replaced by Bernie Mac in the “Charlie’s Angels” sequel? Rumour has it that Murray hates Lucy Liu with a passion and refuses to work with her again. According to Variety, one day Liu complained about the writing of a scene she was shooting with Murray, then Murray complained about Liu’s critique, and soon their costars Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz were fleeing for their trailers, causing shooting to shut down for the day so Liu and Murray could cool off. Murray’s alleged to have turned to each Angel and said: “I get why you’re [Barrymore] here, and you’ve [Diaz] got talent … but what in the hell are you [Liu] doing here? You can’t act!” Liu got so enraged that she ran over and started throwing punches at Murray. Both actors later claimed they had a teensy bout of “creative differences” that was blown out of proportion, and was certainly not the cause of Murray pulling out of the sequel. Liu denied that production was shut down and said that “if I had punched him or anything, I would have remembered.” But Murray sounds more honest when he admits that “for 15 or 20 minutes there, we went to our separate corners and threw hand-grenades and sky rockets at each other.” The proof will be in whether we ever see them in another movie together. Who wants to hold their breath?
I absolutely love the last one, I can totally picture Lucy Liu flipping her shit and throwing punches at Bill Murray.
George Clooney, all cute at the Oscars with shaggy hair and his sparkly girlfriend, was hiding a secret on the red carpet. And no, it wasn’t a wedding ring, dream on!
Instead, still über-hunky Clooney was hauling around a different kind of silver accoutrement…
It was a flask!
Handsome George was reaching out to kiss this foxy femme and that gorgeous star, right and left, when he proudly displayed the goods.
Who knew this was George’s lady-killing secret weapon? Surely he doesn’t need liquid courage to charm all those Hollywood beauties?
I’m sure it was just an off night, king of like Kanye West.
