Bad Boy Past: The former E.R. hunk confessed he focused on three things during the few years he studied at Northern Kentucky University — drinking, drugging and dating. “I partied a lot, got drunk a lot. All the designer drugs were OK – Quaaludes and cocaine,” he told Playboy in 2000. “I absolutely know how to have a good time.”
Ginger Lynn Allen
Porn star Paramour: George blew the top right off the charts when porn star Ginger Lynn Allen revealed he was an “11” in the sack. His equipment? It scored a whopping “12.” Allen, who met Clooney on the set of the short-lived show Sunset Beats when she guest-starred on an episode in the early ‘90s, claims she participated in a six-month romance with the A-list silver fox. According to Allen, Clooney was the “manliest man” she’s ever met.

You can’t live like this.’” Clooney said that for a three-week period he began to believe he “may have to do something drastic” about his pain.
