Amal Clooney Turns Heads at Venice Film Festival as George Clooney Pushes Through Illness to Promote Netflix Film

The Venice Film Festival had a glamorous moment last night as Amal Clooney turned heads on the red carpet while supporting her husband George Clooney.

At 47, Amal looked radiant and youthful in a fuchsia mini dress with a dramatic train, drawing attention as George, 64, battled a sinus infection.

Last-Minute Beauty Prep for the Cameras

The Mail can reveal that Amal had a non-surgical facelift in her hotel room just moments before stepping onto the red carpet.

The human rights lawyer underwent a 111SKIN treatment, which included wrinkle-minimizing wand movements and a facial massage designed to lift, firm, and brighten the skin.

The 90-minute session used products worth over £2,200 and cost around £240, giving Amal a fresh, camera-ready glow for the premiere of Jay Kelly.

Amal’s Red Carpet Presence Steals the Spotlight

It’s no secret that Amal often upstages George at high-profile events.

Known for investing in non-surgical treatments to maintain her youthful appearance, she effortlessly commanded attention on the Venice red carpet.

Despite feeling under the weather, George made a spirited appearance for the premiere.

He had been kept away from press conferences and photo calls due to a “serious” sinus infection but managed a 30-minute walk up the red carpet, arriving at 9:35 pm for the 9:45 pm premiere.

As he exited the car, George checked on Amal, asking, “Are you OK?” before heading to the cameras.

He spent about 20 minutes signing autographs, chatting with festival director Alberto Barbera, and greeting co-stars Laura Dern and Adam Sandler.

At times, he had to clutch his throat and inform fans, “I can’t speak!”

Adjusting the Festival Schedule

George’s illness had already caused him to cut short a press junket for Noah Baumbach’s competition film earlier in the week and skip a dinner with the cast and crew.

Nonetheless, he remained in good spirits and engaged with the fans and media at the Jay Kelly premiere.

The Clooneys in Venice

The couple is staying at the luxurious Cipriani Hotel in Venice while promoting George’s new Netflix film.

They were spotted earlier in the day leaving the Excelsior Hotel, Netflix’s festival base.

Jay Kelly sees George portraying a Hollywood star who “always plays himself,” questioning his life choices despite constant adoration from fans and staff.

The film, directed by Noah Baumbach, promises a mix of self-reflection and humor as George takes on the title role.
