George Clooney Says He is Glad He is Not in Competition With Rob

Last week, Up in the Air actress Anna Kendrick blabbed that her leading man George Clooney had displayed his jealous side whenever he talked about her Twilight Saga co-star Robert Pattinson. And when we caught up with George at last night’s New York Film Critic’s Circle Awards, the Oscar-winner told OK! that he’s happy he doesn’t have to compete with R-Pattz for movie roles.

“Thank God I don’t have to,” the Fantastic Silver Fox explained to OK!. “He’s young and handsome and talented.”

It was on The View that Anna revealed George’s streak of R-Pattz envy.

“Whenever I came back [from shooting Twilight, it was like, ‘Oh, sorry, this isn’t the Twilight set,'" she recalled. "'You’re not working with Mr. Handsome.’ He called Rob ‘Mr. Handsome.’”

To help him cope, Anna got Rob to sign a copy of his April GQ cover for Clooney: “To George: Best of Luck. Hang in there. Love, Rob.”
