George Clooney Laughs at Fart Jokes

George Clooney may be known for his gentlemanly charm, but that doesn't mean he's above a good fart joke.
In an interview with Rolling Stone, the 50-year-old actor gets candid about a lot of things — namely, his crude sense of humor.  "Even the idea of a fart makes me laugh. Saying the word 'fart' makes me laugh," he tells the mag. "I have iFart on my phone. I have remote whoopee cushions. Farts. To me, there's nothing funnier."

Clooney also opens up about losing his virginity (at the age of 16), and growing up in the shadow of his father, a local TV newsman. "In the microcosm of Cincinnati, Ohio through northern Kentucky, my father was a big, big star. So that made my sister and me really visible," he says. "Everybody knew us, talked about us. If I scored 15 points in a basketball game, the paper would say 'Nick Clooney's son scored 15 points.'"It's fair to say that the days of living in his father's shadow are long gone for the Oscar-winning actor. In his latest film, The Descendants, Clooney plays Matt King, a land baron in Hawaii who tries to reconnect with his daughters after his wife falls into a coma. Clooney has high expectations for the dramedy, saying, "If it's not nominated for Best Picture, I'll be shocked. It's that good."
