'Lonely' Clooney feels sleepless

Los Angeles -  Actor George Clooney says he feels "lonely" while attending public events and says he goes through "a very tough time" sleeping.

"Turning off the television causes me to think, and once I start that vision roaring, I have a very tough time getting to sleep. I'm able to numb out. Without question, I wake every night five times," femalefirst.co.uk quoted Clooney as saying.

"Anyone would be lying if they said they didn't get lonely at times. The loneliest you will get is in the most public of arenas - You will go to a place and end up in the smallest compartment possible, because it's a distraction to everybody, and you end up not getting to enjoy it like everyone else," he added.
