George Clooney shares the 'uncomfortable' question his 7-year-old twins asked him and wife Amal

George Clooney shares the 'uncomfortable' question his 7-year-old twins asked him and wife Amal

The Wolfs star admits he doesn't know how to answer this specific question from his kids

Kids can come out with the funniest things.

Sometimes it earns them viral fame - just like the 'apparently' kid, who took over the internet with his adorable TV news interview 10 years ago.

There's just no avoiding awkward conversations with children - not even if you're Hollywood megastar George Clooney.

The Wolfs actor, 63, and his wife, international human rights lawyer Amal Clooney, 46, are proud parents to seven-year-old twins Alexander and Ella.

Amal first revealed she was pregnant with twins on CBS talk show The Talk in February 2017.

She gave birth four months later on June 6 2017. While the couple have been keeping their children out of the spotlight, they've still been sharing hilarious details of their cheeky personalities with us.

And there's one question Alexander and Ella ask that makes their actor dad sweat.

The Oceans 11 actor told E! News last month that while his children understand what a lawyer is, they're not clued up on what he does for a living.

Clooney admitted: “I don’t want them to for the most part,” as he revealed he doesn't know what answer to give them when they ask.

The star recalled: “But they did say to me one day when they came home from school,'What’s ‘famous?' Which we didn’t want to explain."

In the interview, Amal added, “They know you’re an actor. I think. They find it intriguing.”

Clooney explained how he had previously attempted to explain his lead role in 1997's Batman & Robin to son Alexander.

He said: “My son dressed up as Batman not long ago. And he said, ‘I’m Batman.’ I told him I was Batman. He goes, ‘Not really.’ And I was like, ‘You have no idea how accurate you are.'"

Alexander and Ella have been largely raised in Italy, with Clooney having owned a huge villa in sought-after Lake Como since 2002.

Clooney bizarrely revealed that both his kids speak fluent Italian, while he and Amal do not. During a 2020 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Clooney joked: "We've armed them with a language."

He went on to detail Alexander and Ella's cheeky attitudes, explaining: "I'll say, 'Go back in and clean your room,' and they'll be like, 'Eh, papa stronzo,'" which literally means "turd," though colloquially it's an equivalent to 'a**hole.'"

He added: "I'm from Kentucky, English is a second language to me."
