Despite only having been engaged for one month, it seems that George Clooney and fiancée Amal Alamuddin will beat good friends Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to the altar.With rumours rife that George and his lady love are already making plans for a September ceremony following a whirlwind romance, Angelina has confirmed the likelihood that her pals will marry before she does.Speaking to Entertainment Tonight at the LA premiere of new movie Maleficent on Wednesday,the 38-year-old revealed that she and Brad have no current plans to tie the knot two years after becoming engaged.'Probably George,' she responded to the question as to who will marry first out of the two couples.She added to USA Today: 'We don't have any plans to get married at the moment. Nothing is organised. Nothing is ready. I don't have a dress.'While Brad and Ange may not be in any rush to make their nine-year relationship official, their persuasive children may just sway them in the end.The doting mom-of-six told ET their brood have 'a lot of crazy ideas' when it comes to where the wedding will take place, adding: 'I'm sure most of them will win out'.'So yes, they'll be the ones deciding when it comes and how it's done, I'm sure,' she laughs.The couple, who met on the set of Mr & Mrs Smith back in 2004, are of course parents to Maddox, 12, Pax, 10, Zahara, nine, Shiloh, eight, and twins Knox and Vivienne, five.
Meanwhile, notorious bachelor George - who once stated that he would never marry again following his brief four-year union to Talia Balsam from 1989 to 1993 - seemingly can't wait to walk down the aisle with his betrothed.Rumours are swirling that the 53-year-old actor and the UK human rights attorney, 36, will either wed in Highclere Castle - the setting of British TV show Downton Abbey - or in Clooney's favoured vacation spot of Italy.While the star of course has a home on the water in picturesque Lake Como, People reports that the couple will 'likely choose a more secluded locale', with a party to follow afterwards near the bride's hometown in Lebanon.Though the location may not be locked down just yet, Cindy Crawford, who is a close friend of the pair's, recently let slip that the wedding will definitely be happening in the next few months.'It's in September,' she confirmed.Meanwhile, it seems that Amal is rubbing off on her Oscar-winning fiancé, with the star reportedly eager to launch a career in politics following their wedding.George is said to be gearing up to take part in the next US election, with a source telling the Daily Mirror newspaper: 'He has big ambitions and aims to get into politics imminently. He wants to do more humanitarian work and hopes to join the Democrats' 2016 election campaign.'The producer and actor, who rallied for President Barack Obama ahead of the 2012 election and co-founded humanitarian aid organisation Not On Our Watch with several friends - including Matt Damon and Brad Pitt - six years ago, reportedly believes Amal will help boost his chances of securing an official role in the next government.The insider explains: 'George is thinking of how he can get more involved. Now he has Amal by his side it will give him more credibility to run for office.'The Gravity star previously insisted that while he felt very strongly about highlighting certain issues - such as the genocide in Darfur - he had no political aspirations.In February he said: 'I like the ability to shine light and make it loud. But boy, the idea of administrating and legislating. What a nightmare.'
