George
Clooney "Date" Night Auction Axed 3/14/08
A George Clooney 'date' auction has been pulled from website eBay.com
after a charity mix-up.
Auction Charity bosses had set up the chance to accompany Clooney to
his Leatherheads premiere in Los Angeles on 31 March (08) in an effort to
raise cash for the Boys & Girls Club Of America.
But the item was not as advertised to them, and Clooney had never
agreed to walk the red carpet with the winning bidder.
The auction was scheduled to go live on Thursday morning (13Mar08), but
it will no longer go ahead.
An Auction Cause spokesman says, "It was all a big
misunderstanding. We've contacted George Clooney's representative and apologized."
