The Clooney Connection

[MikeInNV]

Did anyone catch tonight's episode of Entertainment Tonight? My mom just called and said she was "half-watching" and they mentioned something about George Clooney buying a house from Stevie years ago. The price was something like $2.2 million, which they said woud be a steal by today's prices. Is this something we've heard before, and I've just forgotten?

Hey Mike, if I remember correctly it was the Fantasy-Land house that Stevie lived in the late 1970s. I believe she sold it back then 79-81(?) for that amount. Though Clooney would've not really even been a "star" yet then... so maybe he bought that house later? :shrug:

I was flipping the channels tonight and thought, hmm... that house looks like one of Stevie's old ones! And sure enough, they were talking about how George Clooney bought it off Stevie in 1994. She actually did quite a bit of press in that house back in the day. It was neat to see it again! :nod:

George let the cameras into his Studio City, California, home for a rare tour and showed fans what his diet consists of.

"There is a lady that makes salads for me and some sort of a juice thing," he said showing off his neatly stacked glass fronted fridge.

"One of my New Year's resolutions was to eat better and to do one of those cleanses. Really glad I did that."

The Descendants star has lived in the 7,354 square foot mansion since 1995 which he bought for $2.2 million from singer Stevie Nicks.

But although he splits his time between Los Angeles and his luxury mansion in Lake Como, Italy, George is very clear on what is needed to really make a place feel like home.

"Well there's a big difference between a house and a home I think," he said. "A house is a place which you would live in but a home is where your family and friends are a part of.

"I have a basketball court here and people come and play basketball and it's just a fun place to be."

The home is where the handsome bachelor also spends a lot of time with current girlfriend Stacy Keibler.

I enjoyed the tour. Stevie is very wealthy and she likes her privacy.
