GEORGE CLOONEY - CLOONEY GOES BEHIND THE CAMERA AGAIN

Hunky actor GEORGE CLOONEY swapped the spotlight for life behind the camera at last night's (9SEP03) Democratic presidential debate.

The CONFESSIONS OF A DANGEROUS MIND director was filming footage for his new HBO show K STREET, which revolves around the world of Washington lobbyists.

Clooney and business partner STEVEN SODERBERGH are producing the show for their studio SECTION 8, and the OCEAN'S ELEVEN star admits being an A-list celebrity makes the art of film-making more difficult.

He tells American gossip site PAGE SIX.COM, "It makes it hard to be a voyeur. (The things I don't like) are the same things as acting - the food."
