George Clooney: I Avoid Pools When Sandra Bullock Is Near!

Oscar winner Sandra Bullock called out George Clooney when she accepted the award for Best Actress on Sunday, saying the actor threw her into a pool in 2000 at Joel Schumacher’s birthday – and George is looking over his shoulder waiting for payback.

“George Clooney threw me in a pool years ago,” “The Blind Side” star said on the Kodak Theatre stage during the Oscars. “I’m still holding a grudge.”

On Tuesday, George told Access Hollywood that he steers clear of pools when Sandra is around.

“Sandy and I have been friends for 25 years… and I do stay away from pools when she walks by,” the actor said in a statement to Access on Tuesday morning.

As for George’s scowl when Oscar hosts Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin took a few jabs at him during the show’s opening monologue – a source close to the “Up In The Air” star told Access it was all planned and that he was in on the joke.
