Sandra Bullock Slams Tabloid Suggestions That George Clooney Was Making Eyes At Her

Sandra Bullock is putting the kibosh on tabloid suggestions that George Clooney might be making the moves on her.

British tabloid The Sun published a photo of the pair from the Venice premiere of their new film “Gravity,” saying that Clooney was “making eyes” at his co-star.

Bullock told The Associated Press on Thursday “he was not making eyes. Maybe cross-eyes, but that is about the extent of his goggle eyes.” Besides, she added, each has enough “dirt” on the other to command “a level of respect and understanding. I adore George.”

Clooney said in a comment released by Warner Brothers that he and Bullock have known each other before either had success in films “so there is no pretense. We are just friends.”
