Did Elisabetta Canalis cheat on George Clooney?

These are photos of George Clooney and his latest girlfriend, Elisabetta Canalis. I couldn’t resist this one, because Elisabetta face is killing me. The other guy is killing me too – but Elisabetta is making the same kind of “WTF?” expression. What is she saying with her eyes? It’s lost in translation – something like “Oh God, act sober, act cool, don’t pull a Sarah Larson.” I’ve had to admit it before, but I’ll do it again – I was wrong about Elisabetta Canalis. I thought she would only last a few months. She and George have now been dating about five months. He’s taken her on red carpets, he’s traveled around Italy with her, he’s busted his hand doing something kinky. It’s true love. Or whatever facsimile Clooney enjoys.

Anyway, Lainey Gossip reported that there’s a rumor going around Italy that Elisabetta is cheating on Clooney. Ha! So much for Elisabetta being a “co-pilot” in Clooney’s life, right? Well… the reports are actually pretty sketchy:

George Clooney took Elisabetta Canalis out for sushi yesterday. The Italian Queen is still very much a part of Clooney’s life even though Italian tabloids are reporting that she stepped out on George recently with Clarence Seedorf, a soccer player. Thanks to Giulietta for sending along the link. Apparently Elisabetta was flirting heavily with Seerdorf and Italian gossips are suggesting she may have f-cked him in the hotel.

The article is amazingly funny after translation. They write with such cheese flair and lack of political correctness, so blatantly and yet (for them) so obliviously offensive it’s actually kind of hilarious. My friend LB who is Italian translated for me. I have not edited her comments which are bracketed because they cracked me up:

When George is away Elisabetta dances. From one moment to the next, everyone expects pictures of George in the company of another beautiful girl. Instead, no. The one to be papped in the company of another is actually she – the beautiful Canalis. The other in question is Clarence Seedorf, of Milan (soccer) and former teammate of Elisabetta’s ex, Vieri. [she dated Vieri? lucky bitch]. The couple, black and white as is all the rage [WTF? italians are so un p.c.] was papped by Novella 2000 and in the photo in question they can be seen in intimate poses, exchanging kisses and tendernesses. [whatever – you know what i mean]. The encounter took place in London where she remained with her assistant for fashion-related work after Clooney’s Up in the Air presentation. The two met at a luxurious London hotel while George was back across the ocean.
So is Elisabetta cheating on George?

Please.

She is many things, but she is not stupid. The others before her? The Sarah Larsons of the world? They were stupid. You don’t get to where Canalis has gotten by being stupid. So it’s doubtful that she’s being unfaithful. Is your smutty sense tingling? Because mine is. Who’s to say she’s not sharing Seerdorf’s friendship with George? Perhaps he’s a wonderful conversationalist. Maybe they have the same preferences. This is how she keeps it interesting, see?

I think Elisabetta “keeps it interesting” by not sugar-coating her relationship with George, honestly. She’s there for sex and to be someone pretty on his arm for the Oscar campaign. She sticks around because he’s great for her career and because he lavishes gifts on her in lieu of an actual adult relationship based on love, trust, and all that jazz. Of course, that’s just my take. I know people are going to start in with the “Clooney is gay” stuff, but I’ll just say again that I don’t think he is. I think he likes it kinky and professional. And Elisabetta knows it.
