The Rumors Are False

George Clooney is NOT engaged! (THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!)

I mean, I know that him and girlfriend of less than a year Sarah Larson are getting more and more serious by the day, and that she technically is the only girlfriend he has ever brought to the Oscars, blah blah blah, but still he has not made that big step just yet. (THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!)

Reports of the engagement were posted in the British version of Marie Claire, where a restaurant worker from the Italian town where Clooney's villa is located was quoted as saying that Clooney and Larson were engaged. The reports were in an article under the headline, "George Clooney to Marry?"

Clooney responded through his rep by saying that "these reports are not true."

Phew...America's (and obviously my) favorite bachelor is still, well just that, our favorite bachelor!
