George Clooney fancies Paul McCartney's girlfriend

It seems George Clooney has taken a bit of a shine to Paul McCartney's new girlfriend Nancy Shevell.

After meeting Sir Paul and 47-year-old Shevell in New York's Carlyle Hotel, the Hollywood hunk told pals: "I wouldn't say no!"

While eying up Nancy, George, 46, complimented Paul, 65, on his healthy glow and joked that divorce from Heather Mills had obviously served him well.

Over drinks in the hotel bar, George -- who's dating former cocktail waitress Sarah Larson -- was overheard drooling: "Paul McCartney's girlfriend is definitely keeping him young!

"He's done pretty well for himself - I wouldn't say no!"

But even though Clooney, 46, is one of Hollywood's most eligible bachelors, the 65-year-old former Beatle has little to fear.

He and Nancy recently enjoyed a romantic Caribbean holiday where they were seen kissing and cuddling on the beach.

While his ex-wife, Heather, who scooped a $48.6million divorce settlement, tries to secure lucrative TV deals in LA, Paul has returned to London to look after their four-year-old daughter, Beatrice.
