George Clooney and Brad Pitt Devise Wedding Prank  11/22/05

Hollywood pranksters George Clooney and Brad Pitt have been secretly planning a practical joke to fool the paparazzi - by staging a fake wedding at Clooney's Italian mansion.

Spurred on by reports that Pitt was planning to wed Angelina Jolie at pal Clooney's lavish villa on the banks of Lake Como, the hunks devised a cunning plan to deceive the media - and it still might happen.

Clooney reveals, "There was a story going around that Brad was going to get married at my house in Italy and it was sort of catching on.

"So I called Brad up and I said we should sort of let it leak out and then hire a bunch of kids dressed up to pretend to be getting married on that day and let everybody rent helicopters and spend a fortune."
