Amal Clooney - What do we Know About Her?

She is tall, skinny, a lawyer, wears ridiculously expensive clothes, and what else?

Beard who never gave birth to twins. A surrogate had the twins.

Recruited by George's Sunshine Sachs Fixers (same Fixers Weinstein used) to marry him as damage control after his unfortunate accident on Lake Como.

Was just a junior entertainment lawyer when George's people recruited her for the "wife" gig. His PR rebranded her a human rights lawyer and padded her resume. She had never led or won a case before she changed her last name to his. George's PR also scrubbed the internet of her "before" photos as she was ghastly before all the work she's had done.

She has an LLM which I believe is equivalent to a U.S. Masters Degree not a J.D. Her father donated very expensive equipment to her university thus the entrance to prestigious school.

She claims to have been in a refugee camp when her family left Lebanon and ate only rice for months. In reality she and her family left Lebanon in her arms dealer uncle's private jet and stayed at his chateau in France until they made their way to the U.K.

Her arms dealer uncle is Ziad Takieddine and he is the major supplier to Hamas and Hezbollah.

All of her awards, Time magazine cover and UN speaking engagements are purchased for her by George's PR just like Meghan and Harry's awards, magazine covers and UN engagements are purchased for them. No expertise required, just a check.

She has a boyfriend.

She knows what George did to the Como twink and doesn't care. She's fame hungry as is her mother. She has Backgrid on speed dial just like Meghan. She and her mother love to pap stroll for Backgrid in NYC.

Her mother shoplifted a designer purse in Milan and pulled the "Do you know who my son in law is" card. Her sister went to jail for DUI (Thailand?). One of her half-brothers is ALLEGEDLY a known or convicted p edo.

Her "Clooney" name is used to get attention for cases handled by her law firm but she doesn't actually work on the cases. She may show up at the end to read a speech that was prepared for her. She is disliked by her colleagues at the law firm as she doesn't actually contribute anything but her name whereas they actually have to work.

They were at the Sussex wedding because of the Sunshine Sachs connection. Sunshine Sachs was Meghan's PR firm at the time. As mentioned, Sunshine's Fixers cleaned up his mess on Lake Como thus George owed Sunshine a big favor as Sunshine saved his career.

She and her mother have Georgie boy over a barrel. They know his secrets and they call the shots in his life. I hope those two witches make his life miserable.

by Anonymousreply 8September 29, 2024 9:20 PM

Adding for the sycophants and PR interns who will inevitably swoop in to angrily dismiss what I said at @r8:

The Lake Como young man was doxxed in 2017 and that site immediately shut down. It is not a made-up story.

The blind is not the origin of the story. The accident happened in 2013 and the blind wasn't even published until 2016. The blind does have a couple of red herrings to cover their ass, i.e. jewelry and the beard being the clean-up person. She didn't clean up his mess, professional Fixers did that, she was hired afterwards.

George simply looks miserable and exhausted. Yes, he is fabulously wealthy & famous. I'm sure he loves his twins. However, the constant need to be seen as a world leader for Justice (witness last week's Albies) by both George & Amal is tiring. The huge "award" party was just a fun time for the self-interested Hollywood elite. George is in the downturn of his movie career - so let's see what the future holds for this happy couple.

She was totally given a massive PR hype when she and Clooney made their deal. I know enough lawyers and none had ever heard of her. She's supposed to have had this international human rights profile. She didn't. She looked right (model-esque), could be hyped on paper, and was the right age (not robbing the cradle, young enough to "have kids" but a mature person). I think she was given a huge payout.

by Anonymousreply 48October 1, 2024 5:21 PM

In regards to R8's comment about how she gets assigned to cases but doesn't do much on them and it's designed to increase her profile - again, I believe that.

I used to work at the Manhattan D.A.'s office when JFK Jr. was there. He was rarely in the office. Cases were worked on by other assistant DA's and then handed off to him right before the trial. Not that he ever worked on major cases anyway - he was in a lower level crime unit. The DA at the time was Morgenthau and his family had been close with upper echelons of the Dem party since Roosevelt administration.

I did ride the elevators with him a few times - Jesus was he beautiful and such a hot body. But his job was more of a part-time gig to make him look like he had a profession - he really didn't. He left soon after to create that stupid George magazine.

I wrote this the last time her name was brought up -- pre-marriage according to Wiki she worked in Washington on the Exxon defense. The thirstiest couple in philanthropy worked their Markle wedding invite into a charity affiliated with King Charles' Trust.

I DO believe she's intelligent - so I'm not saying she's a dummy at all. But what's also strange is her hopscotch jumping around all over the place in her career in her late 20's and early 30's.

I honestly don't understand that - unless she was working pro Bono on cases? You usually need to stay in some path to build up a reputation, but she just veered from one thing to another at such a relatively young age. I just don't see how people could have seen her as such hot shit that they HAD to have this 20 something junior legal associate on cases.

R8 is correct about the above, except that he appears to be her first cousin once removed not her uncle as R14 points out. I cant confirm anything else R8 wrote but would not be surprised if most of it were to be proved true. God knows what other connections she has through her family on both sides, corruption is absolutely rife in that region and culture, but R67 is likely correct in saying that George would be well advised to stay well in the closet if he is indeed gay.

by Anonymousreply 79October 6, 2024 12:38 PM

The first time someone said here that she had no legal reputation before she married Clooney, I didn't believe it so I spent an entire evening googling her career credentials. I couldn't find any human rights work at all before 2013 when she met George, except a 6 month internship at the UN. She was a second-string litigation lawyer in 2013, which is exactly what you'd have sent out to Lake Como with Sunshine Sachs in the circumstances. So I completely believe R8, except that I have no views on whether she did or didn't bear the children.

I also found an interview where Clooney, some time after their marriage, was asked about his meeting with Amal. He said, "My agent [or manager] said, 'I'm sending out the woman you will marry'". Clooney obviously meant us to hear this as "my agent has clairvoyant powers", but I heard it as "'This is an order, George. I'm not kidding.'" Naturally, Clooney didn't mention WHY she was being sent there.

Apparently, a lot of people had a hunch they were meant to be, because George's agent called him to say he should take this meetup seriously.

“I got a call from my agent who said, ‘I met this woman who is coming to your house, who you’re going to marry,’” George said. “It really worked out that way.”

“I met George when I was 35 and starting to become quite resigned to the idea that I was going to be a spinster,” she said.

Clooney has been very smart about "confessing" the truth as if it was a joke or at least humorous. Once, asked about those rumors about his sexuality, he responded "I'm not gay, I'm gay, gay, gay." It was incredibly effective in shutting down the gossip to an extent (DL exempted). Then there's the above story about how he met Amal. I'm sure his agent was setting up the old lavender marriage thing so instead of creating a whole falsehood about it, he told it like it was and made it sound like the two met cute.

The twink in question didn't die, R84 and R85, but allegedly he was seriously injured. I don't know whether it was ever confirmed that he was permanently paralyzed, but he was hospitalized.
