Hollywood elitist and longtime Democrat activist George Clooney has officially joined the growing list of wealthy, left-wing celebrities who preach “American values” while quietly distancing themselves from the United States.
Clooney, along with his wife, Amal Alamuddin Clooney, and their two children, has reportedly obtained French citizenship through a naturalization decree.
The couple’s 8-year-old twins, Ella and Alexander, were included in the process.
According to Fox News, the Clooneys uprooted their family from Los Angeles to escape what Clooney described as the “culture of Hollywood,” the very system that made him rich, famous, and politically influential.
George Clooney told Esquire in October that after the birth of his twins, he made the deliberate decision to move his family out of Hollywood.
The longtime Democrat donor explained that they now live on a farm far from Los Angeles, distancing themselves from a culture he believed would have denied his children a “fair shake” at life.
“You know, we live on a farm in France. A good portion of my life growing up was on a farm, and as a kid I hated the whole idea of it. But now, for them, it’s like—they’re not on their iPads, you know? They have dinner with grown-ups and have to take their dishes in. They have a much better life.”
Clooney went on to explain that he feared raising his children in Los Angeles.
“I was worried about raising our kids in L. A., in the culture of Hollywood. I felt like they were never going to get a fair shake at life. France—they kind of don’t give a shit about fame. I don’t want them to be walking around worried about paparazzi. I don’t want them being compared to somebody else’s famous kids.”
George and Amal Clooney purchased Domaine du Canadel, an 18th-century wine estate and farm in Brignoles, Provence, in August 2021.
By late 2024 and early 2025, the French estate became the family’s primary residence as they sought to raise their twins away from “Hollywood’s paparazzi culture.”
On December 27, 2025, a naturalization decree was published in France’s Journal officiel, officially granting George, Amal, and their twins French citizenship.
Clooney played a central role in the coordinated media and donor pressure campaign to force Joe Biden out of the 2024 race.
Following Biden’s disastrous June debate performance, Clooney kicked off the calls to put old Joe out to pasture with a column for the New York Times demanding that he step aside.
He wrote for The Times, “We are not going to win in November with this president.”
He continued, “This isn’t only my opinion; this is the opinion of every senator and Congress member and governor who I’ve spoken with in private.”
After Clooney’s column, the chorus calling for Biden to step aside became more vocal.
But, after Kamala Harris’s embarrassing loss to President Donald Trump, he has faced backlash from liberals for his key role in the ouster, and he isn’t happy with Barack.
Italy has a MIGA govt. George would be uncomfortable.
Well, well, well . . . how hypocritical of him. . . .
Is he promising not to obsess from France over Trump...like Rosie?
I assume this has to do with the release of the Epstein files.
It’s rumored Clooeny and Obama loved them some Little St. James Island, and often.

Clooney's wife wanted to live in a Muslim country so Clooney obliged.
Thoughtful husband.
Dual citizenship. Clooney can now vote in the United States and France.
Ten bucks says he and/or his wife are neck deep in some NGO fraud, and know they’re on the DOJ hit list.
Faux human rights lawyer which is cover for anti-Israel antisemitic activist. Good riddance. George married poorly…
HE and his kind helped to turn L.A. into a SH**THOLE and now he runs away.
