We’re sad to report that George Clooney’s good friend Max has just passed away. Max, the 300-lb pig that lived with Clooney
in his Hollywood Hills bachelor pad has gone to a better place. Max was
by Clooney’s side during thick and thin. They lived with each other for
18 years and at times slept in the same bed. And they say Clooney has
commitment issues, he managed to commit to his pig!
"He just died, like an hour ago," tells USA Today.
"He was as old a pig as the vets had ever seen. I was really surprised,
because he's been a big part of my life," says Clooney.
In 2005 there were reports that Max had died but Clooney issued a denial
statement.
"It has been a bad year for my pets," Clooney tells the newspaper. "I had
a bulldog that died this year, too. It's strange how animals become a bit
part of your family. They really become a big issue with you."
Max was also featured in certain interviews with Clooney who called him
"Max, the star."
