The famous actor George Clooney has won the hearts of many fans over the years. He has received major awards like the British Academy Film Awards, Golden Globe Awards, and Academy Awards. Some of his notable roles include movies like From Dusk Till Dawn, Batman & Robin, Out of Sight, Three Kings, and the Ocean’s series.

George Clooney was born to Nina Bruce, a beauty pageant winner, and Nick Clooney, a TV host. He has Irish, German, and English roots and is even related to President Abraham Lincoln through his mother’s family. Clooney grew up in Kentucky and attended Blessed Sacrament School in Fort Mitchell. Raised as a Roman Catholic, he got involved in political and social activism during his childhood in Kentucky in the 1960s.

In a chat, the famous actor talked about the important lessons his parents taught him. Clooney remembered, “You had to be involved. My mother and father were involved, and we were [taught] it is your civic duty… I remember my father saying, ‘Don’t come back and look me in the eye unless you stand up to [bullies and racists].’ I’m glad to have been raised that way.”

In his early years, the actor from Batman & Robin had a childhood connected to show business. His aunt was a famous singer and actor, known for her role in White Christmas with Bing Crosby. Additionally, his father Nick worked in radio and television broadcasts. At just six years old, George was even acknowledged as a stagehand on his father’s show.

He later decided he wanted to go to Los Angeles to become an actor. In an interview with The Guardian, the Hollywood star mentioned, “When I decided to move to LA to try to become an actor, my dad really went after me. I remember him saying, ‘You’re giving up your education!’” In the interview, he said that as a dad, he didn’t see himself as being in the wrong.
