George Clooney: I Am Not Advising Obama Actor, activist, and United Nations ambassador … wears many hats. But there’s one role he doesn’t have: Political consultant.

The actor is shooting down reports claiming he’s been advising presidential hopeful Barack Obama.

“I have never texted or e-mailed Senator Obama. And I’ll offer a million dollars to anyone who could prove otherwise, ” Clooney said Tuesday in a statement released by his publicist, Stan Rosenfield. “In fact, I’ve only talked to the Senator once in the last year and a half. On the phone.”

Not true, said Clooney.

“I’ve spent more time with Senator %26#91;John%26#93; McCain … than I have with Senator Obama …,” he said. “Although I support Senator Obama, I would never be dumb enough to offer policy advice to either candidate. They seem to be doing fine without me.”
