An Ode to George Clooney by a Fellow Kentuckian and Fan

A few of my favorite actors are Johnny Depp and George Clooney – they would be EVEN if they weren’t born in Kentucky, but I do love that little fact. I got an e-mail a few days ago from a woman who currently lives in Manhattan but was born in Clay County (Manchester) and raised in Butler, Kentucky. Her name is Lisa Ashe and she’s apparently a George Clooney fan as well.

She passed along this video she’d like to share with the readers of Genuine Kentucky and I’m SO glad she did – it’s a lot of fun! I love the bluegrass sound of her voice and music – they’re a great fit. The UK grad has a degree in theater and wrote the song she sings in the video below. You can learn more about Lisa by visiting her website, http://www.LisaAsher.com.

Thanks Lisa!

Check out the cool old pic of George Clooney I found. My oldest daughter said he looked like Velma on Scooby Doo… and, sadly I must agree. But a very cute Velma, right… right?… Am I right?
