George Clooney auctioned himself off for an ‘intimate’ night in New York City on September 24.
The event raised over $500,000 for charity through Charitybuzz and DailyMail.com has the exclusive photos.
‘George was amazing, he was such a great host and spoke with everyone – he is hilarious!’ a source told DailyMail.com. ‘He was incredibly charming.’
‘His wife Amal was there too and she was very kind, gracious and accessible, a real delight, everything you would expect from her.’
Amal was not photographed at the VIP event, however.
The lucky winner of the charity – who asked to remain anonymous – brought a guest to the private cocktail event with the ER veteran followed by a dinner party that included two dozen other people.
Guests included Head of Charitybuzz Access (private members’ club) Ramona Brodsky, Charitybuzz CEO Ben Erwin, and Rory Tahari, Partner at Tahari Capital.
