The actor-turned-activist dropped his plans to travel to Yerevan, Armenia where he was supposed to attend the award ceremony of Aurora Price for Awakening Humanity, reported E! online.
"I really would have been (in Yerevan) but if I came there and my wife had twins while I was there, I could never come home," he said in a video address.
Last year, however, Clooney, 56, was able to be on hand at the ceremony and serve as the co-chair of the award's prize selection committee.
