The George Clooney Story, Part 2

ON THE EDGE OF A BUCOLIC ENGLISH VILLAGE ABOUT AN HOUR’S drive from London is a large house that's hidden from view by a cluster of old-growth trees. George Clooney lives in this house. Or, rather, it's one of his residences. In June, I took a train from Paris—where I had been attending Fashion Week—to Clooney's house for an Esquire cover shoot. At 9:00 A.M., Clooney walked out his back door and strolled to his pool house, where our photographer and stylist had established a base camp. Clooney was dressed in a dark-blue suit and white shirt, no tie, and carried a coffee mug. This was unusual. Most celebrities arrive to their photo shoots in casual gear because they're about to undress and put on clothes for the camera. Plus, the shoot was catered with gallons of coffee.
