You can call George Clooney gay all you like, and he won't deny it.

That's not to say the 50-year-old star of "The Descendants" is pining for a real-life bromance with Brad Pitt. No, it just means that Clooney doesn't believe there's anything wrong with being gay.

In the new issue of gay and lesbian magazine the Advocate, Clooney says he finds the rumours that he is attracted to men "funny" but that he refuses to "jump up and down, saying, 'These are lies!'"
