George Clooney begs the media: Don’t post photos of my kids, it’s about their lives! – PRAVDA.sk

Actor George Clooney has been involved in public affairs for years. Now, however, he has embarked on the protection of his own family. He wrote an open letter for tabloid media, namely the “British Daily Mail and other media”.

The Hollywood star sent an open letter to news agencies and the world’s largest publishers, asking them not to publish footage of his children or the children of other celebrities. As he said, he was prompted to do so by recently published photos of only the one-year-old child of actress Billie Lourd, which the British Daily Mail was the first to show the world.

“We would like to ask you not to place the faces of our children in your publication,” he addressed the request directly to the Daily Mail. However, other words have already been addressed to other tabloid media. “I am a public figure and I often accept photos that intrude on my privacy as part of the price I pay to do my job. But our children have not committed themselves to anything like that. “

“The nature of my wife’s work is that they face and bring terrorist groups to justice, and we do everything in our power to keep our family safe,” Clooney continued in an open letter.

“But we cannot protect our children if their faces appear in any publication. We have never sold a photo of our children, we are not on social networks and we never publish photos because we would endanger their lives. It’s not a paranoid sense of threat, but real-world problems with real-world consequences, “commented Clooney, 58, who concluded the letter, saying he hopes the media will realize their responsibility.

“I hope you will agree that the need to sell advertising is no greater than the need to prevent innocent children from being targeted.”

Actor George Clooney and his wife Amal Clooney have been the parents of the twins Elly and Alexandra since 2017, but any photos of the children have so far been published without showing their faces. In 2014, most of the world’s media committed to the so-called “No kids policy” in which they do not publish images of children of celebrities and celebrities, or overlap or blur them in joint photos. The only exceptions are authorized shots or social events, such as premieres, where the stars bring their branches officially and expect to be photographed.
