I often wonder how any hollyweird type could have any true genuine friends. How would you even know if they are sincere or truthful.
The are a lot of celebs who keep old friends from before the fame for that reason, and often some trusted helpers end up being best friends too by the proof of their loyalty and decency during the fame.
In 2013 George Cluney had 14 of his best friends to dinner. These were people who had helped and supported him in the years before he made the big time. He gave each of them a bag containing $1,000,000.
For these gifts, he paid a tax bill of about $3.5 million.
Nice way to say “Thank you” to your friends.
