George Clooney's Fake Wedding Plan for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie  3/1/06

George Clooney tried to stage a fake Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie wedding at his Italian home, using children posing as the superstar couple. After reports the pair were planning to wed in a hotel in Italy, Clooney teased the press by claiming they would tie the knot at his home on nearby Lake Como. He then intended to stage a fake ceremony for the benefit of spying photographers. 

Clooney explains, "Someone started a story that Brad was getting married at my place in Italy, so we tried to sort of spread the rumor for a while. "I wanted to get a bunch of kids and dress them up in tuxedos. And I wanted them to send helicopters over my house. They'd be flying over, going: 'Get in closer!' "But everyone figured it was made up."
