For Hollywood actor and humanitarian activist George Clooney, his wife, international human rights lawyer Amal Clooney, “makes every room a little smarter and a little better.” To George, Amal says, “I’ve learned what courage looks like when I watch you.”
The couple headlined Rappler’s Social Good Summit on November 16, 2025, where they spoke of their work at the Clooney Foundation for Justice, bringing their legal aid project to the Philippines… and George being named “Sexiest Man Alive.”
Well, listen, I met and married the smartest, most beautiful, but also the most dedicated
human being I've ever met.
Someone who I feel like...
Don't make me cry on stage.
She makes every room a little smarter and a little better.
And so, what have I learned from her?
I've learned about integrity, I've learned about compassion, I've learned about all those
elements that make us better as humans.
So that's what I've learned from my wife.
We're just going to keep clapping.
Yeah.
Come on, guys, go home, go home and tell that to your wife.
George said this.
I've learned what courage looks like when I watch you.
And eloquence, and humor, and I've seen what an amazing father looks like, and many, many
things.
But, yeah, George is the best communicator I know, and if he's standing up to make the
speech, he can make you laugh and he can make you cry, and he can also convince.
And so, in that sense, it's the same job that we're both trying to do, which is advocacy
for change, and hopefully moving the needle in the right direction whenever we can.
So, I've learned a lot from him.
I was also the two times sexiest man alive, I want to point that out.
Not one, two times.
It should be three.
I agree.
No, but I'm so sorry to ask this, because I saw him in an interview saying that he doesn't
actually, you were asked, it was CBS that asked you, you know, would you check the cameras,
would you check the lighting, because you were named the two times sexiest man.
By the way, it's actually true.
It takes him five minutes to get ready for anything, and it's hugely frustrating for
those of us for whom it takes more than five minutes.
