Hello! sorry for fake Clooney conversation

Celebrity magazine Hello! has apologized to George Clooney for running an interview that the star says was “completely fabricated.”

Quotes from the article — in which the actor supposedly talked about his marriage to British lawyer Amal Clooney — were picked up by other publications around the world.

But Clooney said in a statement: “I have not given an interview to Hello! magazine.”

Hello! said it had bought the interview in good faith from an agency, Famous. In a statement Friday, it apologized “unreservedly to Clooney and his wife Amal for any distress that publication of this piece may have caused them.”
