He has integrity as far as his work is concern.

An endorsement is about money. My music is from the heart."<BR/><BR/>Not content with slamming his rival's commercial appearances, the GLADIATOR heart-throb rubbishes Clooney's acting ability and career motivation. <BR/><BR/>He adds, "The job is to take on other characters, otherwise you could just call every character you play the same name. What's the character in this film, George? George, is it? George plays George in the new movie, George.<BR/><BR/>"I believe if you take on characters for a living, you can't make yourself into an icon in order to sell a pair of shoes."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-30735638837889690952007-06-19T09:40:00.000-07:002007-06-19T09:40:00.000-07:00George Clooney has hit back at Hollywood rival Russell Crowe, after the Gladiator actor slammed stars who appear in commercials. The Antipodean actor was particularly scathing of Clooney, Harrison Ford and Robert De Niro, who have all plugged products on television outside America. Crowe said, "I don't use my celebrity to make a living. To me it's kind of sacrilegious - it's a complete contradiction of the f**king social contract you have with your audience." But Clooney has hit back - and suggested Crowe uses his celebrity to promote his rock band 30 Odd Foot Of Grunts. He says, "I'm glad he set us straight. Because Harrison, Bob and I were putting a band together called Grunting For 30 Feet, and that would also fall under the heading of 'bad use of celebrity'.
