George Clooney: ‘I Don’t Think of Myself as a Movie Star’

George ClooneyGeorge Clooney refuses to believe he is a movie star.

The Ocean’s 11 hunk insists he isn’t worried about protecting his image, as he is more concerned about being a good actor than a celebrity.

“If you actually think of yourself as a movie star, you stop being an actor,” Clooney told a Scottish newspaper.

“If you start to protect the image you have created then all you are going to do is repeat the same parts over and over again.

“You become a caricature and the fan base will eventually leave you.

“For a long time I thought work was the only necessity but now I think the only necessity is not to wake up at 65 and not have done what you wanted to do.

“As I get older my priorities are changing. There has to be room for friends and family and things like that.”
