Fabio has decided to — shocker! — capitalize on his latest round of 15 minutes of fame as a result of his cat fight with George Clooney, telling OK! magazine that:
“I was doing a charity for the 11-99 Foundation, which benefits the widows and children of officers killed in the line of duty [at the now-infamous dinner at Madeo]. I had dinner with six women and a photographer woman and we were just having fun, having dinner and taking pictures. All of a sudden one of the ladies said to me, ‘There is this gentleman a few tables behind you that keeps insulting me, keeps giving me the finger.’ She’s like, ‘This gentleman behind you called me a fat cow.’”
“So I turn and it was him,” Fabio says of Clooney. “He was drunk and thought people were taking pictures of him. So I went to the table and explained to him that we were having a charity dinner and I said, ‘You’re more than welcome to come to my table and see if there was a picture of you.’ I apologized and he started being rude so I put him in his place. After I put him in his place — you know I’m three times his size — he got a little scared. I went back to my table and as soon as I sit down he paid his bill, got up and he started insulting the girls. He called the women names. At that point I lost my temper. I went after him and he ran out of the restaurant. He has no class.”
Calling a woman a “fat cow” is never acceptable — but in George’s defense, the chick obviously WAS a fan of dairy products ’cause Fabio is the biggest cheese ball alive.
What saddens me most is that George is a mean drunk. Although that explains why he always screams at me when I break into his house — he’s just had too many vodka tonics! Now I know you don’t mean it when you threaten to throw me in jail, Georgie!
In all seriousness, the Fabio cat fight has killed the dream for me. Yes, a little part of me died when I saw George flipping off the long-haired cheese ball. May be time to find a new obsession, er… boyfriend. Oh, Georgie. Didn’t we almost have it all…?

Er,uh…this is indeed hard to take.
With all the cell phone cameras around today,
celebrities should always expect to be
photographed when they go to public places.
I mean, if I don’t want be seen, I simply
don’t go where people will see me. I stay
home with my Wild Turkey.
The story is even more difficult to take
because, evidently, no one was even TRYing
to photograph gorgeous George. Also,
Clooney always seemed to be the epitome of
Hollywood class and gentility.
WTF?

I like having that chick-magnet in the media, coz it’s a good ice breaker to get the conversation flowing on a first date. But it always comes down to he’s Fabio, and I’m not! Oh well, so much for trials and tribulations of being a non-hunk. At least I have the power of the keyboard.

What the Fruzen Gladje indeed Kathleen. If any of this is true about Georgie, the dream will be over for me too Candy. Years and years of good will and a good rep in Hollywood to lose it all for a tussle with Fabio? And George is the one who punched David Russle, the Three Kings director, in defense of an extra! I hope someone comes forward soon to clear this up, cause I’m not convinced of Fabio’s version. I can’t handle the truth!
Remember the Gladje!

Laugh all you want, but Fabio would have kicked Clooney’s teeth down his throat and George knows it. (Personally I think it would have been great for Fabio’s career if he had kicked the shit out of him) !
