George Clooney has been busy promoting his new movie which he also directed, Ides of March, (which also stars Ryan Gosling) and he also covers this week’s issue of Parade magazine. Here are some of the highlights of the interview in the issue:
On why he avoids social media: “I don’t tweet, I don’t go on Facebook. I think there’s too much information about all of us out there. I’m liking the idea of privacy more and more. There will be funny things, like I’ll read something I’ve said about a woman somewhere. And I haven’t spoken about my relationships in 15 years.”
On how aging has changed his career: “I look at myself onscreen and go, ‘I don’t look like I did when I was 40—I know that.’ The people I’ve respected most in the industry over the years—Paul Newman, for instance. I just loved the way he handled growing old onscreen. It’s understanding that you’re now basically a character actor.”
On how he handled rejection as a young actor: “I had to stop going to auditions thinking, ‘Oh, I hope they like me.’ I had to go in thinking I was the answer to their problem. The greatest lesson I learned was that sometimes you have to fake it. And you have to be willing to fail.”
On why The Ides of March is relevant: “We were in preproduction on this film in 2007, before the Obama election. And then we realized that a good portion of the country was elated with what happened in that election, so we had to shelve the movie until people were cynical again. I didn’t think it would be quite this quick [Laughs].”
On the practical jokes: “There’s good fun in watching those play out. And, hey, my friends are rough on me, too. Brad Pitt’s brutal, and Matt Damon. My friends used to change my outgoing phone message all the time. This was the old days, when you had a phone machine. They would change the message to something horrible and there was nothing I could do to change it back. That was always brilliant.”

On being recognized: “It’s like being in a dream. You don’t know anybody, but everybody knows you, everybody reacts to you. You can be walking along in a dream, through a pretty normal world, and then bam, everything seems to be a response to your presence. Everything seems to be driven by you. And that’s notable at first, and you deal with it. And then – and it happens every time – you become aware it’s a dream. Right about then, when you think you have it figured, and that acknowledging that will make it easier, it inevitably becomes a nightmare.”
On why it’s pretty sweet to be an adult: “Sometimes I think that the one thing I love most about being an adult is the right to buy candy whenever and wherever I want.”
On puberty: “I went through puberty in a theme park. I’m grateful. That place was a landscape to me. I had adventures every day….Backstage at Disney World, there are stories. Mickey Mouse with his head off, drinking coffee on break. Pirates on the phone. Ghosts in line for food. It just made me see things.”

“I get bored working out inside, so the beach has been my place lately,” he explained. “I run, I swim, I play paddleball, basketball, do some mixed martial arts. I like mixing this up.”
Whatever Kellan does..it works.

Kirsten Dunst is the September 2011 issue of ELLE magazine (the UK edition). Here are some of the quotes from the magazine:
Her tendency to go for the wrong guy: “We all want the bad guy who doesn’t give you what you want. I did a lot of sitting in my car, listening to sad music, crying over boys.”
On her unique smile: “I love my snaggle fangs. They give me character and character is sexy. People comment, but the only person who ever told me to fix them was my mom … I just went my own way, like daughters do.”
