George Clooney

My favourite hero is George Clooney.  He isn't only an American actor, and popular in the world.  He is also a film director, producer and screenwriter.  He has received three Golden Globe Awards and an Academy Award.  He is known as an active man of the United Nations Messengers of Peace.  He is famous for his humanitarian work.  George Clooney organized the Telethon Hope for Haiti Now, which collected donations.  I like not only his heroes but all his films, which he produced.

In 2007 he cast his hands and shoes in cement at the Grauman's Chinese Theatre.  I thought that actors just play their roles and earn money .

But when I found out what George Clooney did and does for the people in the world, I was surprised.  I'd like to tell not about the actor but about George Clooney, the man.  He is interested in all that happens in the world.  He knows about all disasters and tries to help them.

He isn't even afraid to be arrested. He has been arrested this year because of his protesting at the Sudan Embassy in Washington.

The great actor even went to Sudan to see everything with his own eyes.  He donated millions of dollars.  He also helps homeless people and supports the families of victims of September 11.

I want to say that many famous people are popular but they are also real.  So they can feel somebody's pain and understand their problems.  My hero could spend his money just for himself but he doesn't.  I don't know if I'll have that much money.  Even if I don't, I'll try to do everything to help  the people.
