Smirking George Clooney brushes off Megyn Kelly 'smug' saga as he mocks his dye job while receiving portrait


George Clooney made a self-deprecating joke while receiving a beloved Broadway honor on Thursday.

The actor - who recently paid Donald Trump a rare compliment- was honored on Thursday with his portrait put on display at the iconic Manhattan restaurant Sardi's, a time-honored tradition for Broadway performers. The film portrayed the conflict between legendary newsman Edward R. Murrow (David Strathairn) and the Red Scare propagated by Wisconsin Senator Joseph McCarthy, with Clooney playing producer Fred W. Friendly. Clooney and Heslov created the original film as a response to the U.S. war in Iraq, and they revived this story to hold up a mirror to Donald Trump.
