George Clooney is the leader of the modern day Rat Pack with his pals Brad Pitt and Matt Damon filling in the other spaces. Clooney oozes cool and sophistication and manages to mix being talented with great box office success.

Many see his well-dressed, prankster ways as making him the Cary Grant of the 21st century. Clooney has recently become firmly grounded as a writer, director, producer and actor, being nominated for two and winning one Oscar in 2006 alone. He also topped this list last year.
