Celebrity Feuds: When Hollywood is Like One Big High School

George Clooney and Russell Crowe

Back in 2013, Clooney aired some dirty laundry during an interview with Esquire, saying that Crowe needed to apologize for “insulting the sh*t out of me.” Clooney claimed that he picked up a fight with him for no reason at all. Crowe had stated that George Clooney, Harrison Ford, and Robert De Niro are “sellouts.” Clooney made a joke about starting a band with Ford and De Niro, but Crowe retaliated with, “ Who the f*$k does this guy think he is? He’s a Frank Sinatra wannabe. ” Apparently, Crowe tried to make amends, but Clooney wasn’t interested.

Clooney told Esquire, “The truth is that [Crowe] did send me a book of poems to apologize for insulting the [expletive] out of me, which he did. He picked a fight with me. He started it for no reason at all. He put out this thing saying, ‘George Clooney, Harrison Ford, and Robert De Niro are sellouts.’ And I put out a statement saying, ‘He’s probably right. And I’m glad he told us, ’cause Bob and Harrison and I were also thinking about starting a band, which would also fall under the heading of bad use of celebrity.’”
