Asda's George and Hollywood's George
A very distant descendant
Fri, 03/02/2012 - 13:43 by Gemma ExleyJust to clarify, the guy on the left is the lookalike and the guy on the right is George Clooney himself. They do look similar - in the sense that they've both got a face with eyes, a nose and a mouth. Neither have got a beard either, we thought we'd point out.
Here's David James Glendon, who has just won a ticket for this month's Oscars after beating 782 other people in a George Clooney lookalike competition held at an Irish bar.
The competition was organised by Kilkenny-based filmmaker and historian Gabriel Murray, who told the local paper:
"My company Olympia Films were allocated four tickets to the Oscars in March so we will be taking David with us. He will also be attending the Irish Film and TV Awards, which are held in Dublin next month."
Meanwhile, the winner said
"I decided to do it for a bit of craic, for the fun of it. I am delighted to have won. To go to the Oscars, well that would be anyone's dream come true."
Gosh, there will be so much confusion when Clooney's doppelganger turns up - imagine if he ended up on the podium collecting the best actor prize. It could happen. Although actually, we've just realised we were getting Clooney totally mixed up with the guy from the pub who looks nothing like him.
THIS guy so should've entered.
