The eyes have it: George Clooney wanted that wide-awake look

George Clooney has admitted that he has had cosmetic surgery.

The 45-year-old actor, who holds the title of sexiest man alive, revealed his surgery secret to actress friend Julia Roberts in a TV interview.

Asked what had been the last biggest change in his life, he told her: "I had my eyes done. Can you tell? I think it's important to look awake."

Roberts, 39, who interviewed the Ocean's Eleven film star in his LA home for Oprah Winfrey's Oscars special, said she had not had any plastic surgery "yet".

Just another typical celebrity that pretends he cares for the poor, but would rather spend his money on getting cosmetic surgery.
