George Clooney has admitted that he is thrilled to still receive compliments about his appearance.
The 46-year-old actor revealed that he was once wary of receiving favourable comments about his looks, as he feared that they were being used to undermine him.
However, growing older has resulted in the movie star adopting a rather different attitude towards the praise.
"Well, you know, people have been nice to me most of my life. I mean, fairly kind," Clooney explained. "But there was a time when compliments about your appearance were used to make it sound as though you weren't bright, in some way - so much so that you almost wanted to avoid them.
"But you get to an age when you'll take any compliments you can get - you know, 'Yeah, thanks' - so when people are trying to be nice, I'm never bothered."
