George Clooney Personally Kicks In $1 Million to Haiti Relief

George Clooney is putting his money where his all-star organizing mouth is.

He's not the first—and we hope won't be the last—but the consummate movie star is the latest to make a $1 million donation to the Haiti relief efforts.

He joins the rarified world of Sandra Bullock, Gisele Bündchen and Brangelina in making the milestone personal donation, which, as it happens,

is his second seven-figure offering in as many weeks.



Clooney was already part of the $1 million sum kicked in by Not On Our Watch, along with Matt Damon, Brad Pitt, Don Cheadle and Jerry Weintraub.

1. He's wonderful to do it but it's like me giving 50 bucks.

2. Everything being relative...
$50 is a good amount for most of us to give. If you can afford $50, you're doing well enough.

3. I loves me some George Clooney. I knew he'd give generously and he did.
He's a great guy, and very liberal. DUers should love him...
