On Sunday, June 8, George Clooney attended the 2025 Tony Awards, where he was nominated for his first Tony Award, for Best Actor in a Play for Good Night and Good Luck. On the red carpet during an interview with E! News, he shared that his children were not aware of who his famous friends were, but they happen to be fans of Taylor Swift. The actor shared. "They want to see Taylor Swift.” According to Clooney, the funniest part is that they are not familiar with other key figures. For example, when Robert DeNiro visits their house, “they're like, 'Who's that?' They don't care."

George Clooney has two children, 8-year-old twins Ella and Alexander Clooney, with his wife, Amal Alamuddin Clooney. The actor also gushed about his children’s admiration for Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande in Wicked and expressed that they are awaiting the sequel. Though Clooney lost his big Tony nomination to Cole Escola for Oh, Mary!, he has no shortage of admiration for other artists, especially Taylor Swift.
