Why Is George Clooney’s Arm In A Sling? (UPDATES)

Here is a nice image of George Clooney and ex-Baltimore Ravens player Jonathan Ogden from Sunday's Ravens game. What is wrong with this picture? CLOONEY IS WEARING A SLING. An odd-looking, kind of mechanical sling, to boot. But why? Because he recently had elbow surgery, TMZ reports, giving no further details on the operation.

The Famous reached out to the 50-year-old star's publicist for comment. (Perhaps Stacy Keibler beat him up, like Clooney said she would. Or maybe not.) The former wrestler-turned-trophy girlfriend humble-bragged on Twitter: "You kno its love when your boyfriend has elbow surgery 2 days ago and takes u to a #ravens game...especially when he's a Bengals fan."

Update: Clooney's rep, Stan Rosenfield, tells the Famous: "He had the surgery on Friday and he is doing fine." (Several years ago, the actor underwent painful back surgery after which he contemplated suicide, which was a rare somber confession for the publicly peppy A-lister.)
