GEORGE CLOONEY today testified in the fraud trial of fashion label GC Exclusive. The clothing company falsely used the actor's signature in its adverts.
"I am here because I believe in justice. I am here to speak because some people are trying to use my name to gain advantage not over me but of others," said Clooney, according to the Daily Mail.
Vincenzo Cannalire, Francesco Galdelli and Vanja Goggi, who created GC, reportedly conned buyers and suppliers into thinking Clooney had officially backed the label. The trio were accused of forgery, fraud and receiving stolen goods, as well as using Clooney's name to promote the clothing line. The defendants deny all claims.
Clooney gave evidence for two hours. The trial's judge, Pietro Caccialanza, had to call for order and halt proceedings as the furor from fans made it difficult to hear from other witnesses.
