Brad turns to Clooney

London - Brad Pitt has reportedly turned to George Clooney to help him get over his split from Jennifer Aniston.
The Hollywood heartthrob, who announced his separation from the former Friends beauty earlier this month, has been seeking comfort from his Ocean's Twelve co-star and George has even joked that Brad has threatened his position as one of Hollywood's most eligible bachelors.
George, who is currently romancing British TV presenter Lisa Snowdon, has also offered for Brad to stay his Italian villa for as long as he wants in a bid to get away from the intense media scrutiny.
A source told Britain's New magazine: "George has been a rock to Brad.
"But he's been teasing him about how he's taken his place as Hollywood's oldest, most eligible bachelor.
"George has suggested to Brad that he should get away from the madness and go to Italy. He's worried about him."
Last week, it was revealed Jennifer had moved out of the Hollywood home she shared with Brad and was seeking comfort at the home of her stylist, Chris McMillan.
A source said at the time: "When she returned from her holiday with Brad she went straight to Chris's house.
"She couldn't face going back to the house they shared. She found the idea too upsetting.
Chris has been a great shoulder for her to cry on over the years and he's there for her now."
Brad and Jennifer, who married in July 2000, announced they were separating earlier this month after "much thoughtful consideration" but pledged to remain "committed and caring friends". - femalefirst.co.uk
