GEORGE CLOONEY
Category: Entertainers
Company: Smokehouse Productions
Industry: Film
What Made Him Haute: Everything. He has been Hollywood’s most eligible bachelor for as long as we can remember, and his acting abilities are on par. The superstar is also known for his social and liberal political activism.

What Makes Him Haute Now: Still, everything, only now he is—unfortunately—off the eligible bachelor list and settled down with girlfriend and Italian model Elisabetta Canalis. Earlier this year, Clooney was a 2010 Oscar nominee for Best Actor for Up in the Air. Though he didn’t win, Clooney continues to thrive in success: TNT has given the green light to Smokehouse’s Delta Blues, a drama pilot. Clooney will work behind the scenes as an executive producer for the show.
