The Results Are in: Most Miss Max

PetSugar — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 12:00:51 -0800

As an animal lover, I understand that pets are important fixtures in people's lives and, for those in the public eye, it's easy to see celebrities' bonds with the cute pets that share their homes and lives - and feel a connection to them as well. So, as part of our Best of 2007 coverage, I surveyed PetSugar readers to see which celebrity's pet you missed seeing, hearing, or reading about during 2007 and you said . . .

With half the votes, George Clooney's pot-bellied pig is the pet you missed the most last year! He lived to 18 (while being arthritic and partially blind), which is a ripe, old age for an animal weighing in at over 300 lbs. Rumored to be called "Max the Star" by George himself, this chubby fellow would squeal for his meal every morning and was truly treasured and pampered by his celebrity dad who considered the pet to be his longest relationship.

The Good German Premieres in LA

George, Cate and Tobey all came out for the premiere of The Good German last night in LA. The film, which was shot all in black and white, is said to be inspired by the movie Casablanca. Cate wore quite a dress to the showing but the only thing that seemed to be on George's mind was Max, his pet pig who died over the weekend. He's so broken up about Max's death that he got teary eyed when he was asked how he was doing, Clooney said:

"I'm good. I just got home this morning, or this afternoon, so it's strange not having him sitting on the carpet in the house, but, you know… sad, actually.

Recalling his best memory of Max, who was often featured in interviews with Clooney (who referred to him as "Max, the star"), the two-legged star said, "Oh, there are plenty of them. He got me in a lot of trouble that pig, in general, (and) scared the hell out of a lot of delivery people, too."

Poor George! Eighteen years is a long time to have any pet. Hopefully being at the premiere and with his castmates cheered him up a little. For more pics of George, Cate, Tobey, Beau Bridges, Cindy Crawford, Constance Marie, and Maggie Grace, just read more

Clooney's Pig RIP

PopSugar — Mon, 04 Dec 2006 09:46:43 -0800

George has often talked about the longest relationship he's ever had and it's with his pet pig Max. His faithful companion of 18 years died this weekend while George was out of town promoting The Good German. However, we can all be comforted by the fact that Max led a long happy life. At 18 years of age, his vet said that Max was the oldest pig he had ever seen. Here's more:

"He just died, like an hour ago," PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive, 45, tells USA Today.

"He was as old a pig as the vets had ever seen. I was really surprised, because he's been a big part of my life," says Clooney, who even sometimes shared the same bed with his pet.

"It has been a bad year for my pets," Clooney tells the newspaper. "I had a bulldog that died this year, too. It's strange how animals become a bit part of your family. They really become a big issue with you."

The pig, in fact, was sometimes featured in interviews with Clooney, who called him "Max, the star."

As for finding a successor, "No," Clooney insists. "I think Max covered all my pig needs."

Our thoughts are with you George. Rest in peace, Max. More pics of Mr. Clooney looking hot as always at The Good German premiere last Friday night, so read more
