Clooney criticises Paris Hilton

George Clooney has criticised Paris Hilton, saying her financial success doesn't make her a good actress.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Clooney said: "There is a funny thing that happens when you are a young actor. You equate financial success and getting jobs with whether or not you are good at it.

"And it still happens. That's why there is Paris Hilton. Now I'm in trouble with Paris Hilton."

Hilton will next appear in the horror musical Repo! The Genetic Opera.
