George Clooney Refused to Raise His Kids in Hollywood Because ‘They Were Never Going to Get a Fair Shake at Life,’ Moved to a Farm in France Where ‘They Don’t Give a S— About Fame’
Clooney:
>“Yeah, we’re very lucky. 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.
>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.”

I appreciate him shielding his kids from the spotlight while they’re so young. They didn’t choose his life.

Are they really calling a chateau with a vineyard a “farm”

So, I’m remembering how he helped tank Biden campaign, and this mfr does not even live here? Nor raise the next gen of his family here?

Rich ppl in my experience have a somewhat loose definition of the word farm

The reason he made this move is that Princess Diana was chased to her death by paparazzi while he was in the middle of a very public dispute with other paparazzi. He looked at that whole predatory ecosystem and basically said: nope, not my family, not my kids. https://www.reddit.com/r/Fauxmoi/s/OcN1PELAVb

Hollywood, George. Not Los Angeles. Rich white people crack me up. They always act like Los Angeles is nothing more than their little lily white rich bubble. That’s Hollywood. Los Angeles is actually an incredibly diverse city filled with working class people, but guys like George and tourists who are too afraid to leave their sheltered worlds always act like everyone their is as privileged as them.

So, he’s going to send his kids to the village school?

I can’t see Clooney and not think about Hunter Biden now. That guy hates Clooney’s guts lol, and rightly so.
