George Clooney Gushes About Wife Amal in Stirring Golden Globes Speech, The 53-year-old actor accepted the Cecil B. DeMille award in the same tuxedo he wore to his wedding to human rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin last year.
“Which means a whole new thing when you find someone to love,” Clooney said during his stirring lifetime achievement award speech. “Even better when you’ve been waiting your whole life, and when your life is 53 years. Cue, [Globes co-host] Amy [Poehler], start the jokes.”
“Amal, whatever alchemy it is that brought us together, I couldn’t be more proud to be your husband,” he said to his 36-year-old wife, before honoring the victims of the Paris terrorist attacks.
What he didn’t reveal onstage was that the slick black Giorgio Armani tux that he wore to the ceremony was the same one he wore to his September 2014 wedding. Talk about recycling!
“Guys have it easy, it’s not fair,” George later said backstage, sharing that his wife pored over the perfect dress to wear to her first Globes.
Earlier in the evening George and Amal made their red-carpet debut, stopping by ET to dish on their life as a newly-married couple and the possibility of children.
“We’re very happy,” he told ET’s Nancy O’Dell. Amal, in a black Dior gown and Harry Winston jewels, said that married life was “wonderful.”
As for the kids question, Amal had a revealing retort, telling Nancy, “You’re worse than my mother!”
