It’s a little bit The Hangover. And a little bit — well, EVERY WOMAN’S FANTASY! A Norwegian bank has banked on George Clooney’s universal appeal and created a TV commercial whereby a woman wakes up – hungover – to discover she’s married to the actor.
Swoon.
Watch the ad and then tell us … who would YOU love to wake up and discover you were married to?

Where is Rob Lowe on this list?
loading...
Hugh Jackman. All day, every day. If I woke up in his bed with a wedding band on my finger, I would quite likely immediately die of joy.
Though I would also be content with Adrian Brody, Jason Mraz, or Christopher Meloni. So…yeah. That is my Christmas wish list. Dear Santa, please comply.

Adam Levin – 1st choice always
Michael Buble (when he was fit)
Dominic Monaghan
Kit Harington
Carmine Giovinazzo
Josh Duhmal
To name a few

Okay, weird choice… Science/weird-fiction writer China Mieville. Won the Arthur C. Clarke award for science-fiction writing at the age of 28, Marxist, political activist, Dungeons & Dragons geek, and looks like THIS

I actually met him randomly last year. Was shopping in my Myer for my (suddenly very inconvenient) boyfriend when he happened to step onto the same escalator I was taking. I dashed off after him like a thirteen-year-old girl in pursuit of Justin Bieber, accosted him the ladies’ accessories department and said something like; “Ghjdfskhgkbvjn.”
All poise. Not.
loading...
Fwwooooaaaaar!!!!! I doubt there’d be much sleeping going on to be doing the waking up next to
loading...
Gael Garcia Bernal
loading...
That is perfect.. George all the way for me!!!
loading...
Simon Baker!!
loading...
I woke up next to his brother once! He’s very nice too
loading...
details!
loading...
Apart from the very yummy George, just 2 others:
Nathan Fillion
David Boreanaz
that will do
loading...
Okay, What does George Clooney have that I don’t….come on…people tell me!!!…Okay….never mind…I SAID NEVER MIND!….:)
loading...
I don’t get the fascination with George Clooney. Or Brad Pitt.
But I’m weird.
loading...
I know what you mean…they’re both almost too good-looking/pretty, which I’ve never found particularly sexy in men. Having said that, I think they’re both terrific actors, and I reckon George would be an absolute corker to hang out with… smart, funny, informed and articulate.
loading...
A girl can only wish… Also would do:
Alex O’loughlin – if he does not talk or act
Brad Pitt
Ryan Gosling – Yum
Hugh Jackman
loading...
Awesome ad. Believe it or not, my current ‘freebie’ is Jon Stewart. Even my husband understands how that brain and that snark appeals to me!
I wouldn’t be devestated if I woke up married to George Clooney. I think I’d rather Matt Damon – I”d love to just sit around and talk politics with him. Well. Not JUST sit around and talk politics…..
And the primal, neanderthal part of my brain that doesn’t care about their mind (we all have one…I try to supress it, but I cannot lie) I’d love to wake up married to Shemar Moore. Sigh. I would NOT talk politics to him!
Jeremy Northam (Mr Knightley); Colin Firth; Brad Pitt; Ryan Gosling;
loading...
Yes! Shemar Moore is delicious!!
loading...
Jon Stewart… I already have dibs on him – sorry Melissa! ;-D
loading...
George would do, although Colin Firth would be my first choice
loading...
I’d forgotten about Colin Firth. So I’m now adding Colin Firth & Ryan Reynolds to my list!
loading...
Colin is my first & only choice. He is lucky I am happily married or I would have him stripped & tied down quicker than you can say “oh Mr Darcy”..its my little fantasy.
loading...
Yes, Colin Firth. Or Hugh Laurie
loading...
Paul Walker. All the way.
loading...
Funny!
If I had the choice I’d replace George though… as much as I like him there are far more interesting men I’d like to find myself married to
David Tennant – with his original accent (as someone already pointed out)
Colin Firth
Ewan McGregor
Jonny Lee Miller
Damon Albarn
Jarvis Cocker – slightly weird I know…
Thom Yorke -perhaps even weirder…
to name a few. I just prefer to be married to a Brit in my dreams
loading...
Momentarily blonde – I’m with you on the Jarvis Cocker thing. Looking at pics you wouldn’t get it but I recently saw Pulp live and I’m SOLD. There’s something about that man, he definitely has sex appeal
loading...
I know! I regret not having seen Pulp recently, but was fortunate enough to see them in London sometime in the mid nineties and there’s definitely something about Jarvis!
Then again I’ve always been a sucker for specky, geeky looking Brits – don’t get me started on Graham Coxon, I spotted him in London once and followed him into a Paul Smith shop when he finally noticed me, then I blushed furiously and walked the other way. I was such a sad girl
loading...
What a funny ad! George Clooney would be a dream to wake up to! Other choices for me would be :
Brad Pitt
Jude Law
Enrique Iglesias or
Wentworth Miller
SWOOOOON!!!!!
loading...
Oh! Too cute…
loading...
I wouldnt mind waking up next to Enrique Iglesias or Will Smith or Matthew McConaughey…not to say…waking up to Clooney is pretty good too!!
loading...
Saw George Clooney last week at at the toronto film festival…. a bit too much. Ryan Gosling on the other hand… yes please
loading...
yes omg! Ryan Gosling is soooo hot
he does that to me :p
sorry for sounding like a teenage girl
loading...
George Clooney doesn’t really do it for me. I guess it’s because he reminds me of someone who I don’t like very much. But if George is doing it for so many others, then bring it for ‘em!
I say, let them do a parade of handsome, well known men in a series of ads, that would be very cool. I’d request Trent Reznor
loading...
George Clooney would do me fine- in fact I cant think of anyone I would prefer
loading...
Yes, I imagine. Please do not wake me up. Thank you.
loading...
Huh, Paul Simon. Shush, age differences are all in the head.
loading...
I’ll take George, the hotel suite, the dress and the holiday house thanks!
loading...
Ryan Gosling. Hello. My new favourite eye candy. Yum.
loading...
Chris Martin. I would pee my pants
loading...
Maybe I am old as no-one yet has said
Colin Firth or
Ewan McGregor
loading...
Yes – Ewan McGregor please!
loading...
Mr Depp
loading...
I’ll have Alcide from True Blood please. I would choose Eric (again, True Blood) but I’m a bit worried he’d be too hungry and suck me dry.
loading...
We obviously have the same taste. I’m glad you spelt out Alcide’s name. I thought it was was L.C. which was kind of weird. I’m loving Eric in his current ‘little boy lost’ incarnation on True Blood. What a great actor.
loading...
Leonardo Dicaprio
Hugh Jackman
Andy Lee
Ryan Gosling
Matthew Le Nevez (from Offspring)
loading...
Oh yes, Matthew Le Nevez…. Thumbs up!
loading...
Hugh jackman as wolverine
Ryan rynolds
Ryan gosling
Matt Damon
God , George oh George. Its been way too long for me .. Ahem .
loading...
Javier Bardem, Callan Mulvey or Don Hany for hot, brooding masculinity. Jon Stewart for his smarts, wit and silver fox looks. But my top two would have to be Colin Firth or Alan Rickman, both of whom would be men I’d be happy to wake up to every morning (hell, why either/or… I’d like to wake up with both… it’s MY fantasy! ;-D)
loading...
Alan Rickman – yes! That voice!
loading...
I am going to have to be polygamous on this one:
Hugh Jackman
Jensen Ackles (Dean in Supernatural)
Jared Padalecki (Sam in Supernatural)
Sean Bean (back when he was young in the Sharpe series)
Eric Balfour (Duke from Haven)
Kevin Sorbo (back in his Hercules days)
Ok I am going to stop now…
loading...
Oooh yeah… Sean Bean! I don’t usually go for fair-haired blokes, but he is tres sexy and manly.
loading...
Jensen Ackles every time. Though I hadn’t thought of Eric Balfor, mmmmmm.
loading...
Eric has a super hot body!
loading...
I second Jensen Ackles, is it weird that I still found him incredibly hot when he played a serial murderer in My Bloody Valentine??
loading...
He is just hot plain and simple. I dont think it would matter what role he played, with that brooding look he gives, I am gone.
loading...
I like George but I think Lawson Blake (Rodger Corser) from Rush would still do it for me.
loading...
That’s hilarious!
I’m currently obsessed with The Tudors so I’d have to say the guy who plays Charles Brandon … He is sooo sexy!
loading...
Oh my god. Agree. Especially in the first season when he gets with King Henry’s sister. Drooling.
loading...
Henry Cavill. I am in love. Now, to nobble his showjumper fiancee…..
loading...
He is beyond hot & we’ll get to see him soon as Superman…hmm think I need rescuing
loading...
Oh, I forgot about him! He is a little delicious..
loading...
Thank you soooo much Mamamia – and George – you made my day!!!
loading...
Vincent D’Onofrio (‘Bobby Goran’ in Law and Order: Criminal Intent), though more a few years ago than now (though now too, just less)
The red headed guy from ‘Life’
Jenny McCarthy
loading...
Detective Goren – back off, lady!
loading...
I am SO relieved I’m not the only girl with a thing for Goren! My friends think I’m crazy but there is something about his character that I find so sexy.
loading...
Damian Lewis from ‘Life’, I forgot about him! LOVED that character!
I was upset when they cancelled that, no more redhead perving :p
loading...
Ah Clooney . . . Good choice by the advertisers.
For me? Wouldn’t mind waking up married to Tom Welling from his Smallville days. Sigh . . . . .
loading...
Meh. If I were 20 years older and Richard Gere were 20 years younger and I woke up married to him…. I’d probably have a coronary
loading...
I second that! I’d love to wake up next to Richard Gere circa 1990. He is looking a bit old now but 20 to 30 years ago he was damn fine.
George CLooney is my number one favourite of all time though….I’d like nothing better than waking up next to him. I used to watch ER as a teenager just to perv on him. Mmm…..
loading...
Don Hany. The things I would do to that man…..
loading...
Yes me too, miss Offspring and East West 101.
loading...
Don Hany. Gosh. I think I need a little lie down
loading...
Daniel Craig does it for me. Those steely blue eyes…
loading...
Oh yes please! I just came back from Lake Como empty handed and without a George sighting so I’m down for this!
loading...
Ha, me too! We stayed in Domaso for a week in July and I spent the entire time keeping my eyes peeled in case George happened to pass by. We (my husband and I) went up and down the lake a few times and I think I saw his house but no George
I wonder how many women at any given time are holidaying somewhere ’round there and desperately hoping to run into him? Had a very nice holiday anyway so can’t complain!
loading...
LOL, I love it! I’d never even heard of Lake Como until George bought his first house there
Definitely one of my favourite locations in Italy, truly gorgeous either with or without George.
loading...
Dannii Minogue…..but before she had the nose job and the rest of the work done.
Tempany Deckett when she was on H & A..
Mrs Oliver, a neighbour. She always gave me such lovely smiles !
loading...
Bradley – That’s objectification, I mean when we do it, it’s objectification.
loading...
Lol, shut up, I’m a girl and I’d do her too….Or Jessica Alba
loading...
Angelina Jolie for me
loading...
I went to highschool with Tempany Deckert. Nice chick. Her Mum was my Home Ec teacher..lol
loading...
If I were a guy, I’d probably go for Zooey Deschanel, or Beyonce. Mmm..
loading...
Matt Smith. With the bow tie.
ETA: Throw in Rory, too.
loading...
Good call. Keeping with the theme – David Tennant; with his own accent.
loading...
Absolutely! Hotness personafied
loading...
Yes, yes, yes!
loading...
David Tennant – definitely – but he would have to be silent!
loading...
1. cam gigandet (bad guy in twilight, volcheck from the OC or burlesque guy)
2. jake gyllenhaal
3. channing tatum (dear john guy)
4. chuck bass from GG (personality is so so sexy)
5. Nate from GG
6. leonardo dicaprio
7. romeo (from home and away)
8. the other two river boys from H&A
loading...
Patrick Reid from Offspring.
I don’t know his real name, and don’t want to. It will spoil the illusion of the Patrick persona that I get butterflies over.
loading...
Patrick Reid…aahhhh
I didn’t think anyone could replace Dr Chris and let me tell ya, I’m a total convert.
loading...
hmmmm I would not complain one little bit if I woke up married to Roger Federer. He is all sorts of wonderful. What a great post for a Tuesday afternoon. Daydream to continue….
loading...
How cheeky, he really plays on the whole sexiest man in the world tag very well. I think it would be cool to have a conversion with George, but I would not pork him, not really my type.
My dream man is Ayrton Senna…unfortunately he died so no can do.
