George Clooney and wife Amal step out for the 45th Kennedy Center Honors ceremony held at The Kennedy Center on Sunday night (December 4) in Washington, DC.
The 61-year-old actor is one of five honorees for the event, alongside musicians Amy Grant, Gladys Knight, U2 and American composer, conductor and educator Tania León.
The Honors recipients are recognized for their contributions to American culture through the performing arts—whether in music, dance, theater, opera, motion pictures, or television.
Amy was joined by her husband, singer Vince Gill, Bono‘s wife, Ali Hewson, Ariana DeBose, Isla Fisher, Sacha Baron Cohen, Sheryl Crow, Brandi Carlile, Norah O’Donnell, Richard Kind, Matt Damon and Luciana Barroso also stepped out to show their support for everyone.
“To be mentioned in the same breath with the rest of these incredible artists is an honor. This is a genuinely exciting surprise for the whole Clooney family,” George said in a statement about the honor.
The televised ceremony will take place on Wednesday, December 28 at 8 p.m. on CBS, and will be available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+.
If you missed it, George recently opened up about his marriage proposal to Amal.
