Fabio: "Clooney Is a Scumbag" - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

catlover79 · 11-19-2007, 01:08 PM

From imdb.com:

Actor Fabio has branded George Clooney "a low-class scumbag" after allegedly insulting female diners at a Hollywood restaurant. The romance icon stunned diners at the swanky Madeo eaterie when he exchanged fighting words with Clooney on November 2. But Fabio insists he was defending guests at his charity function and was forced to take action when a female dining companion complained Clooney called her "a fat cow." He says, "(George) was drunk and thought people were taking pictures of him. So I went to the table and explained to him that we were having a charity dinner and I said, 'You're more than welcome to come to my table and see if there was a picture of you.' I apologized and he started being rude so I put him in his place. After I put him in his place - you know I'm three times his size - he got a little scared. I went back to my table and as soon as I sit down he paid his bill, got up and he started insulting the girls. He called the women names. At that point I lost my temper. I went after him and he ran out of the restaurant. You have to be a low-class, scumbag to start calling a woman a name. If you're a man, you should never. You should be a gentleman. These women were with me and as a man I defend them. He was lucky he ran out of the restaurant. He's not even half a man."

I love to see the matter settle with another episode of FOX Celebrity Boxing.

That would be awesome. Too bad that bird couldn't have flown into Clooney's face. (If you couldn't already tell, I am not a Clooney fan.)

That's what I was thinking. This is the first time I've ever heard anything like that about George Clooney.

Having seen George Clooney all these years, he's never seemed like anything other than a class act. I find this very difficult to believe.

It's sounds like a really bad fanfic. Fabio chasing George Clooney out of a restaurant.

The fight scene should be good...Clooney spinning Fabio around and around his head, by his long hair!

November 7, 2007 -- DON'T sit George Clooney next to former romance model Fabio. On Friday, Clooney and gal pal Sarah Larsen were having dinner at L.A. eatery Madeo next to Fabio and a group of women. All was well until one of Fabio's pals started taking pictures of her friends. According to numerous eyewitnesses, Clooney, assuming the woman was taking snaps of him, asked her to stop - prompting Fabio to explain that the shots were of his group, not Clooney, and to tell the superstar, "Stop being a diva." Clooney started arguing back, and he and Fabio then got into a shoving match. "The waiters broke it up before it got out of hand," a witness told In Touch. Clooney then paid his check and left before finishing his meal. According to another In Touch witness, Ron Marotto, "George looked annoyed when Fabio went to his table. George stood up, dropped the F-bomb and then went to push him . . . George was drinking . . . He wasn't drunk, but he certainly wasn't stone sober, either." Fabio's manager told the magazine, "George is lucky he didn't end up in the ER." Clooney's rep declined to comment
