GEORGE CLOONEY - CLOONEY HAS FUN WITH HIS OSCAR

GEORGE CLOONEY had fun with his Best Supporting Actor Oscar - by using it as a photo prop at his mansion in Italy. The movie star took his Academy Award to Europe with him as he chilled out after the Oscars - and insisted all visitors posed with it. He says, "There's always great people who stop by. So whoever came by I made them take a picture... and they all had to give, like, their own made-up acceptance speech. There's some really funny pictures." Those that feature among Clooney's snapshots include revered US newsman WALTER KRONKITE.
