HELLO! Canada celebrates Hollywood style—and its 5th anniversary—with George Clooney!

EXCLUSIVE COVER STORY and PHOTOS: Leading man George Clooney talks life, fame and friendship

PLUS: a retrospective on five years of unparalleled celebrity coverage

TORONTO, Sept. 8, 2011 /CNW/ – The country’s #1 Canadian magazine on the newsstand, HELLO! Canada this week is celebrating not only today’s kick off of the Toronto International Film Festival®—but its own fifth anniversary!

To mark the occasions, naturally HELLO! Canada chose one of its favourite A-list Hollywood icons to grace the cover of this special issue. George Clooney, who will be in Toronto for the festival, is featured on the cover and in an exclusive interview inside the pages of HELLO! Canada. The star of the new film The Ides of March, screening at the festival, talks life, fame and friendship, sharing with HELLO!: “I’ve made mistakes in my career and I’ve made mistakes in judgment in my life over the years. The secret is how you handle it.”

PLUS, we feature exclusive new photos of the handsome leading man with new love interest Stacy Keibler.

This special issue, on newsstands today, is the first of three celebrating “HELLO! Hollywood Style.” The subsequent issues, hitting newsstands Sept. 15 and Sept. 22, will feature exclusive reports and glamorous new photos of all the A-list celebrities in Toronto for the film festival.
