Why George Clooney isn't godfather to Brad Pitt's twins

I guess that there have been rumors that, because of the close friendship (or “bromance”!) between Brad Pitt and George Clooney, are speculating George is the godfather to Knox and Vivienne Jolie-Pitt.

'Burn After Reading' - 65th Venice Film Festival

Well, Brad told Extra that it’s not the case. Why not? Brad said:

“He hates children. Are you kidding? I love the twins too much to subject them to George.”

Ha! Those two never fail to crack me up, honestly. I think the sad part is that somewhere someone will believe it because they have no sense of humor, but to me it just shows one more glimpse into the joking and teasing that goes on between George Clooney and Brad Pitt, along with others like Matt Damon.

    oh I forgot to add…. Of course George and Brad are like brothers and love teasing or make fun of each other.. I think it s so great… Funny … Long time ago I didnt think much about Brad s looks when I first saw him in Thelma and Louise the movie…. Now the older he gets, he looks much better with wrinkles LOL and Angie makes him the happiest man like he found happiness at last and LOVES those cute kids of his…

    I also think that “Godfather” is about faith and family. Let’s face it. George is cute and fun and probably a great friend… but a family man he isn’t.

    Nice post. It reminded me of the shirt Shiloh was wearing during the Hello photoshoot for the twins. It was a white shirt with ‘George’ printed on it.

    Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie want Bono to be godfather to twins
    Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have asked U2 frontman Bono to be the godfather of their newborn twins.

    The couple, who welcomed the arrival of a baby boy and girl earlier this month, were thrilled when Bono immediately accepted their offer.

    A source told the Sunday Mirror: “Brad and Angie think the world of Bono. They have been friends for years. Brad is a massive U2 fan and told Bono how much he admired him when they were introduced at a party a few years back.

    “Since then, they’ve become very close, which Brad is thrilled about. Angelina is inspired by Bono’s humanitarian work and gets on with his wife Ali Hewson. Ali’s given Angelina some clothes from her ethical clothing range Edun.”

    Brad and Angelina will make plans for a christening in the coming weeks. They have yet to agree on a godmother, but insiders suggest that Angelina wants to ask her ex-lover Jenny Shimzu to take on the role.

    As for the Godfather thing, I think it’s a good thing. Can you imagine leaving those kids with George for an hour???

    I think it would be so much fun to be a fly on the wall when these guys get together. The jokes and fooling around would be a laugh a minute.
