'Duck' son Robertson makes nice in Fox interview

"Duck Dynasty" star Willie Robertson chose not to quack back.

In one of his first chances to comment on the dust-up surrounding his outspoken father and co-star Phil Robertson, the younger Robertson had only kind words for the A&E network and New Year's wishes for the nation in an appearance Tuesday night on Fox News's "All-American New Year" special.

"We're just glad to be back to work, and A&E and us are fine," Willie Robertson said in a live appearance with wife Korie from Steamboat Springs, Colo.

Fox hosts Bill Hemmer and Elizabeth Hasselbeck gave him several chances to address the firestorm surrounding the suspension of his father over anti-gay comments, but without quite ducking the question, Willie Robertson chose not to take the bait either.

"We're looking forward to getting back to making some funny shows. It's a New Year so we're ready to break in a New Year and start it all over again," Robertson said. "We're ready to move on, you know. I think we all learned a lot and we're just ready to move on, and the family's happy, and we're ready to go. I've got to make sure my guys are back there building duck calls."

Asked her thoughts on the suspension by Hasselbeck, Korie Robertson took the same conciliatory tone.

"Hey, I'm just glad the family's all together, the best thing about the show is we get to do it as a family," she said. "We're all happy, happy, happy."

The cable channel reinstated Phil Robertson on Friday, nine days after suspending him over the anti-gay comments made to GQ magazine.

The suspension sparked brought out legions of defenders who felt he was being censored by the network.

George Clooney’s Mystery Lady Revealed

No one thought the world’s most eligible bachelor would stay single for long, so when George Clooney was snapped spending time with a beautiful brunette, it didn’t come as a big surprise.

But, up until today, the identity of the woman in red Clooney dined with at Berners Tavern in London last week was unknown. However, E! has now identified the lucky lady as British lawyer Amal Alamuddin. (A rep for Clooney did not respond to omg!’s request for confirmation.)

Alamuddin, with her long dark hair and exotic looks, is quite different from the “Gravity” star’s most recent ex, blond former pro-wrestler Stacey Kiebler, except for the model-esque physique obviously!

The previously unknown Brit, who attended Oxford University, isn’t afraid of the limelight. Alamuddin specializes in international law, human rights, extradition, and criminal law and is currently representing a very high-profile client: WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange in his fight against Sweden for extradition.



In fact, all of the barrister’s (the British word for lawyer) cases focus on international rights issues and she has frequently served as an adviser to the United Nations, offering guidance on Syria and terrorist attacks in Lebanon — topics that are sure to interest longtime political activist Clooney.

That’s not the only thing they have in common. Alamuddin was voted the most eligible barrister bachelorette in all of London in 2013, a title the two-time winner of People’s “Sexiest Man Alive” crown will surely appreciate.

With awards season just around the corner, and Clooney’s “Gravity” practically a shoo-in for nominations, Alamuddin may need to get ready for much more of the limelight. One thing’s for sure, she’s bound to have great cocktail party conversation!
