During the 2025 Tony Awards on June 8, George Clooney shared insights about his and Amal Clooney’s 8-year-old twins, including which global superstar truly amazes them—a revelation that unfolded during a red carpet discussion, underscoring how George Clooney shares details about twins at Tony Awards. With celebrities like Robert DeNiro visiting their home, it turns out the twins are unfazed, unless the name is Taylor Swift.
George Clooney’s Children Remain Unimpressed by Most Celebrities
Amal and George Clooney are no strangers to star-studded gatherings, yet their twins, Ella and Alexander, typically show little interest in the Hollywood icons around them. Speaking with E! News on his first Tony Awards attendance, George offered a rare look into his experience as a parent to the pair. He explained that even when acclaimed actor Robert DeNiro pays a visit, the twins remain nonchalant:
“The funniest part is that they have no idea of references. Robert DeNiro will be at the house and they’re like ‘Who’s that?’ They don’t care,”
—George Clooney, Actor
Taylor Swift Makes a Lasting Impression
Despite sharing space with famous faces, Ella and Alexander reserve genuine excitement for global pop icon Taylor Swift. George confirmed their enthusiasm for Swift, pointing out that his children are, without a doubt, Swifites in the making:
“They want to see Taylor Swift,”
—George Clooney, Actor
The twins’ taste in celebrities doesn’t end there. According to George, they also admire performances by Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande in “Wicked,” and they eagerly await the film’s second part:
“They’re looking forward to the second part,”
—George Clooney, Actor
How the Twins’ Personalities Have Grown Over Time
Since their birth in 2017, George and Amal have largely kept their twins out of public view. Occasionally, George has commented on their unique personalities as they grow. In 2020, he described Ella as reserved in social settings:
“Ella is very shy around adults,”
—George Clooney, Actor
However, both twins have developed playful, mischievous sides. During a 2021 interview, George joked about his parenting approach:
“My whole job, really, is to teach them terrible things,”
—George Clooney, Actor
He shared how his daughter’s personality shifted after seeing her brother draw laughs for his antics:
“My daughter has now picked up the mantle. She used to think it was really gross, all the things we did, but then she saw how many laughs Alexander got and now she’s taken it up, too.”
—George Clooney, Actor
George Clooney Reflects on His Marriage with Amal
While at the Tony Awards, George was open about his relationship with his wife, Amal. He spoke admiringly of her, celebrating her qualities and their partnership:
“She’s the bravest human being I’ve ever met in my life. I am deeply proud of her and the fact that she’s in any way proud of me, if just, I can’t believe how lucky I am.”
—George Clooney, Actor
The Clooneys consistently make headlines for their ability to balance family life with public roles, often keeping their children out of the limelight yet occasionally sharing glimpses that reveal their unique personalities and family values. As their twins continue to grow, the world may see more unexpected celebrity influences—especially when big names like Taylor Swift are involved.
