George Clooney has said that casino owner Steve Wynn, who allegedly called Barack Obama an "as*****" but later claimed not to have made the comment, did indeed say it and that there were witnesses.

In a released statement to People Magazine, the Academy Award winner asserted that Wynn said he didn't call the president an "as*****" which was false and that the business magnate shouted that he had voted for an "as*****" and then called Obama the same thing numerous more times as the dinner came to an abrupt end.

The 'Ocean's Eleven' star asserted that there were eight people at the table, eight witnesses and he did in turn, called Wynn the same body part, and walked out.

 

Clooney added that the 72-year-old Wynn was one of the richest men in the world and he should be congratulated for it, but he needed to take off his red sparkly dinner jacket and roll up his sleeves every once in a while and understand what most of the country was actually dealing with.
