George Clooney is Spice Girl inspired

Washington (ANI): Hollywood star George Clooney has revealed that he draws inspiration from Geri Halliwell for his charity work. The Oscar winning star insists that he is motivated by the Spice Girl's humanitarian efforts. "She was always my favourite Spice Girl; I loved her feisty approach and the fact she wasn't afraid to have an opinion," Contactmusic quoted him as saying.

"Her work with Unicef and (sexual health charity) Marie Stopes in the Third World was inspiring. "And her address at a UN Youth summit in 2000 was brave - it's so easy to not get involved and she just gritted her teeth and went for it," he added.

Clooney has recently been named as the United Nations Messenger Of Peace on for his humanitarian work on behalf of refugees in the Darfur region of Sudan.
