Elisabetta Canalis' Maxim Spread Makes Clooney's Choice Perfectly Clear

By PopEater Staff Posted Oct 20th 2009 08:17AM

We don't know much about George Clooney's girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis, but a new photo spread in Maxim proves one thing beyond a shadow of a doubt: the model/actress is smoking hot. A discerning gentleman like Clooney, we imagine, could have his pick of the pretty ladies, so if you can make it past the steamy photos after the jump, we'll give you a bit of a tutorial on who Miss Canalis is. Seriously, we dare you to look at the pics after the jump.

>> Elisabetta Canalis is the new co-host of the Italian version of Total Request Live. (Carson Daly, the first host of the original, American broadcast, recently had a son with his girlfriend, Siri Pinter. Carson's off the market, but Clooney has a beautiful substitute in Elisabetta.)

>> Canalis had a small role ("Lady in Castle") in 'Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo,' starring Rob Schneider.

>> Canalis was a "velina" in one of Italy's most popular television shows, 'Striscia la notizia'. As we understand it, a velina is akin to a Fly Girl - a job that launched Jennifer Lopez to fame. J. Lo? Meet E. Can.

>> Canalis has reportedly posed nude and semi-nude for a number of magazines, including GQ.

>> George Clooney's sweetheart has, in the past, been linked to Italian soccer star Christian Vieri and actor Hayden Christensen. Canalis tells Maxim, "Before in love I used to play much more. Now I don't want to waste any more time with wrong relationships."

See the entire photo spread of the lovely - and well-rounded - Elisabetta Canalis in Maxim.

She makes tons more sense than the last one... and, she is incredibly beautiful. She also appears to have self-esteem- something the last one seemed to lack.

Funny, I noticed the same thing about her demeanor. She IS drop dead gorgeous and seems very confident of herself - a match for George (who looks like he's lost weight).

WHY WOULD GEORGE's NEW GIRL UGLY UP HER BODY WITH TATTOOS ? BEING INDEPENDANT , LIVING HER LIFE ,ALL THAT STUFF ,YES , BUT HER FACE AND BODY ARE WHAT GOT GEORGE AND WILL BE WHAT KEEPS HER IN THAT CIRCLE AND WILL BE HER LIVELYHOOD AFTER GEORGE .THE TATT's MAKE HER HARD (for me) TO LOOK AT HER . THANKS BUT NO THANKS . JACK

By JBaer

Don't get too excited, folks. Next year at this time Maxim will have a shoot of Clooney's NEXT girlfriend.

By Heather

That's the most honest comment yet.

Elizabetta Canalis is a hugely popular star and model in Italy. She would have gotten the MAXIM spread even if she were NOT Clooney's girlfriend.

By susansdjewel

This one looks similar to the last one. It is clear Clooney likes dark haired women and women with pretty much the same type of figure.

By Maureen

Eh, whatever. All these chicks look the same. If George Clooney dated a 500 lb black woman, that would be news.

By Ginger

Maureen, that's was funny! But now I can't get the image out of my head. I see her with orangey, red hair, and wearing hot pink chiffon. George is goregous in his tux as usual. And no I'm not racist, I'm black too and have a sense of humor.

By Dor

I wonder when George Looney is going to come out of the closet ??? He's sooo gay !!

By Grace

I guess it would be too much to expect that George date someone who is a normal, attractive woman that is not interested in show business and posing in magazines.

By Julia

And why should he? He is surrounded by these beautiful women, and is attracted to them. Why should he not date them?

By mike

damn, he gets the good stuff

By HELLO CHRISTIE

He is the good stuff!!!

By Debra

Elisabeth is a beautiful women. I hope she is the right one for George because he deserves to be happy.

Good luck to both of them.....

By Fran

GO by GEORGE !!!!!!! shes beautimous and so are YOU

By MARIE

TOO BAD GEORGE DOESNT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH HER. COME ON GEORGE COME OUT OF THE CLOSET ALREADY
