Amal gifted something unusual to George Clooney on his 55th birthday

Hollywood superstar George Clooney says his wife Amal gifted him a lawn mower as his 55th birthday present. The actor joked that he celebrated his birthday with "crying and drinking", reported People magazine.

"We have a beautiful front lawn at our house in England and I used to mow lawns when I was a kid. So she bought me this giant riding lawn mower that is sitting at the house right now and I'm very excited about putting that to work when I'm home," Clooney told ET Canada at Cannes Film Festival.

The actor was at the festival to promote his upcoming film, Jodie Foster-directed Money Monster with co-star Julia Roberts.

Roberts said she could see Amal's influence on Clooney, who married his barrister wife in 2014.

"Only when we're at their house I see the influence. In a beautiful way that all wives kind of have a beautiful, loving influence over their husbands." Clooney added, "I would concur because there is no version that I could not concur. I would get into trouble."
