George Clooney’s latest ex-girlfriend calls him cold and controlled
By Alexandra Heilbron on September 9, 2011 | 2 Comments
Elisabetta Canalis, 32, who was George Clooney‘s girlfriend for almost two years, is speaking up about their relationship. The Italian TV host, who is preparing to make her U.S. TV debut on ABC’s Dancing With The Stars, granted an interview to Chi magazine. She said, “I have always seen cold and controlled men as the right ones for me. You have to accept that Prince Charming who is coming to save you is not going to happen – it works against you,” adding, “I’m a bit of a tomboy, but when it comes to love I am a doormat.” Because her relationship with the much-older Clooney was so public, Elisabetta felt as if she was under a microscope following the breakup, so she made the decision to compete on Dancing With The Stars as a way of moving on. “I went to the United States, because at the moment I could no longer face the world. Watching my life being dissected was not easy for me. Here in Los Angeles I have found serenity. I’ve also found work. It was a difficult time for me, but you have to get on with things. In the past I would self destruct when it came to love – I was immature, throwing myself into things but now times have changed, I want a relationship where you understand the other person.”
