George Clooney could charm any woman in the world, but he cannot get his paws on tickets for the London Olympics for love nor money.
The Hollywood star is the favorite to land the Best Actor Oscar this year but his mind is on a bigger prize — front-row seats for the track and field events at the Games this summer.
"I think it's fantastic that the Olympics are coming to London," Clooney said. "I think you should always try to take politics out of sport and the London bid did that."
Clooney, whose latest movie "The Descendants" has been nominated for a host of Academy Awards next month, said, "Track and field is something that I really want to come back and see. I'm trying to see if I can get some tickets. I'm a big fan of London. There are only a handful of great cities in the world and it's one of them."
