Sara Foster revealed she once had a very awkward date with George Clooney
The daughter of music producer David Foster treated the last event The world’s first podcast while talking to her sister Erin.
The 44-year-old actress said that supermodel Cindy Crawford and her husband Rande Gerber were behind her relationship with Clooney three decades ago.
“I got into a relationship with George Clooney about 30 years ago. It was such a blah blah. Sorry, I had to say it,” Foster claimed.
She said she was about 24 at the time and met Clooney along with Crawford and Gerber, but the connection was immediately lost.
“It was such a hard no,” she said. “I remember thinking, ‘Oh, he’s so old.’”
Foster further shared her thoughts on age gap relationships.
She called the dynamic unappealing, commenting, “I’ve never understood how a 19-year-old likes a 40-year-old. I always thought that was so weird.”
She admitted she felt “offended” by the situation, adding: “He felt so old.”
“I’m sure George Clooney is a nice guy, but I just remember the four of us sitting there and thinking, ‘I’m dying,'” she said, noting that she was already heartbroken over an ex.
She later clarified that Clooney was probably not behind the scheme. “I don’t think it was George who said, ‘Oh, hook me up with Sara Foster.'”
The date ended awkwardly when she started crying about her ex. “So I think he was like, ‘This girl is not okay,’” she joked.
Foster later moved on and found love with tennis star Tommy Haas.
