George Clooney is all about embracing the gray hair!
While the 63-year-old actor is currently sporting dyed black hair for his Broadway theatrical debut as Edward R. Murrow in Good Night, and Good Luck (based on the 2005 movie he wrote, directed and starred in), Clooney joked that he much prefers his natural look.
Clooney made the admission on Thursday, April 24, at the unveiling of his caricature portrait at New York City’s famed Sardi’s restaurant.
“I like the hair color. It’s much better than my hair color right now,” the ER icon said as he held up his portrait, which depicts him with his signature silver hair.

“That’s better. It’s gray, mostly gray. There we are, thank you so much,” he added, per People.
Sardi’s is a popular restaurant among celebrities and theatergoers in the heart of New York City’s theater district. During Thursday’s portrait unveiling, Clooney also took a moment to make a crack about his longtime pal, Brad Pitt. When asked to sign the portrait, he quipped, “You got it — Brad Pitt,” per The Hollywood Reporter. (Clooney and Pitt, 61, have collaborated on the Ocean’s movies, Burn After Reading, and most recently, Wolfs.)
Clooney recently revealed that his wife, Amal Clooney, 47, and their twin children, Alexander and Ella, 7, are also unsure about his new look.
“Oh, it’s not good. It’s not good,” he joked of his new ‘do on the Monday, April 21, edition of CBS Mornings. “I’m not used to it. You never get used to it. I started getting gray when I was 25. So I’ve been gray most of my life. So it’s not my favorite look, and my wife? She thinks it’s funny.”
As for his kids, “They laugh at it, because nothing makes you look older than being 63 and dyeing your hair,” he said.
