"I want to adopt Shailene. Because she's 20 and smart, and I figure she has a big career ahead and can support me."
Stacy Keibler better prepare herself, George Clooney is ready to adopt … well sort of.

In a recent interview quick-witted George joked that if he ever decided to have children he would adopt his co-star Shailene Woodley who plays one of his daughters in his Oscar-nominated movie The Descendants.

"I want to adopt Shailene. Because she's 20 and smart, and I figure she has a big career ahead and can support me," he said. "So, I'm looking to adopt very successful people."

During an interview with The Insider 50-year-old George, was told he would make a good dad to which he replied "I think so too."

Jokes aside, George has previously said that being a dad just doesn't interest him and when asked about playing an onscreen father of three in The Descendants, he said, "It sucks. I didn't like it."

This is what makes George so appealing. He has a fantastic sense of humour. A very quick witted man. I love that he doesn't take his image, or the press too seriously. Wonderful.
