He has dated a slew of beauties, including Italian TV presenter Elisabetta Canalis, British model Lisa Snowden and currently former WWE wrestler Stacey Keibler.
But over the years the 50-year-old Hollywood heartthrob has continuously been the target of gay rumours.
And now the Oscar-nominated actor has spoken out about the speculation in an interview with U.S. based national gay and lesbian news magazine, The Advocate.
Not a care in the world: George Clooney has told U.S. based national gay and lesbian news magazine, The Advocate that he doesn't care if people think he is gay
The Descendants star says that he doesn't care if people think he is gay and would never deny or define when it comes to his sexuality, because it would be 'unfair and unkind' to his close friends who are homosexual.
'I think it’s funny, but the last thing you’ll ever see me do is jump up and down, saying, "These are lies!" That would be unfair and unkind to my good friends in the gay community,' he told the publication.
'I’m not going to let anyone make it seem like being gay is a bad thing.
Happy: The 50-year-old Hollywood heartthrob is currently dating former WWE wrestler Stacy Keibler
'My private life is private, and I’m very happy in it. Who does it hurt if someone thinks I’m gay? I’ll be long dead and there will still be people who say I was gay. I don’t give a s***.'
Clooney, who is also an advocate for gay marriage, says that the current government's stance on the marriage equality is archaic.
'It’s always been this albatross that stood out to me as the final leg of the civil rights movement… One day the marriage equality fight will look as archaic as George Wallace standing on the University of Alabama steps keeping James Hood from attending college because he was black,' he said.
A fine bromance: In the interview he also boasts about his 'bromance' with his Ocean's Eleven co-star and close pal Brad Pitt
'So it’s encouraging to know that this too will seem like such a silly argument to our next generation. There are even a lot of young conservatives today for whom marriage equality isn’t an issue. It always takes government an extra generation to catch up to the people.
Clooney's close pal Brad Pitt has joked in the past about the gay rumours surrounding his friend, saying that he wouldn't marry Angelina Jolie until his friend could marry his own partner.
Clooney says that Pitt's joke is effective because it points out the 'ridiculousness' of marriage inequality.
'Brad has also joked that he’s not getting married until I can legally marry my partner. He’s been funny about it, because he knows that the best and most effective way to end marriage inequality is to point out the ridiculousness of it,' he says.
Advocate: George, seen here with girlfriend Stacy, is an advocate for gay marriage
'Gay marriage doesn’t affect anyone else or change the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman. It’s not about singling out one group and giving them special rights; it’s about giving everybody the same rights.
In the interview he also boasts about his 'bromance' with his Ocean's Eleven co-star.
'I do think we’ve set the bar very high. People think Brad and I hang out all the time, but the truth is that we see each other very rarely, maybe a couple times a year. I’ve had great fun spending time with my friend again over the awards season," he said.
'Not only do I enjoy him as a person and respect his talent, but I also love what he does in the world. I can’t speak highly enough about how hard he works at making the world better. I’m very proud to call him my friend.'
Funny guy: George is a huge favourite in the Hollywood community due to his hilarious humour and kind nature. Here he is seen larking about with Sandra Bullock
Clooney has been dating Stacy Keibler for the last six months and the couple recently put on a stunning turn on the Oscars red-carpet on Sunday night.
It was a nervous night for Clooney as he went up for a Best Actor and Best Adapted Screenplay at the Academy Awards.
And despite losing out on the Best Actor accolade, Keibler made sure he went home with an Oscar of his own as her dress appeared to have been inspired by the statuette.
Attending her first Academy Awards on Clooney's arm, she looked stunning in a gold Grecian-style Marchesa creation.
