Clooney’s Citizenship Tour: From Hollywood Heat to French Wine and US Sanctions

KEY POINTS

  • Amal Clooney risks US sanctions after involvement in an arrest warrant for Israel’s prime minister.
  • George Clooney and his wife have sought French citizenship mainly due to Trump’s 2024 re-election.
  • Other celebrities like Ellen DeGeneres and Courtney Love have also moved abroad, citing political frustrations.

In a globe-trotting plot that reads like an A-list spy comedy, George and Amal Clooney’s jackpot move to French citizenship wasn’t just about escaping west coast smog or paparazzi, but dodging a UK government warning about potential US sanctions due to Amal’s role in issuing an Israeli PM arrest warrant. Meanwhile, celebs like Ellen, Robin, and Courtney have staged exotic escapes to England, Ireland, and Spain, fleeing the Trump fandom like it’s a bad sequel. Clooney, who campaigned energetically against the 2024 Trump re-election, has now officially traded the Hollywood Hills for French hillsides, showing that when US political drama heats up, a Parisian passport is the ultimate vacation pass!
