George Clooney reveals he didn't buy wife Amal a first wedding anniversary gift, saying there's no need for 'fireworks' after the pair celebrate with dinner date

George Clooney and wife Amal celebrated their first anniversary with a dinner date, but the actor seems to have skipped a gift.

Clooney, 54, told Extra's AJ Calloway he was taking a low-key approach to the couple's first anniversary, joking that there was no need for fireworks because there are plenty more years ahead.

'We had our first-year anniversary two nights ago,' Clooney said while at a screening of his cult film O Brother, Where Art Thou? The New York Film Festival on Tuesday.

Make them green with envy in an emerald dress by Versace

They have just celebrated their first wedding anniversary, and now Amal Clooney is helping husband George mark another milestone.

They attended the 15th anniversary screening of O Brother, Where Art Thou at the New York Film Festival, and Amal looked as radiant as ever for the occasion. She's still got that newlywed glow about her!

She wore a gorgeous green dress, and whilst it's a simple style it sure does make a serious statement. It hails from the Versace Fall 2015 collection, and as you can see from the picture on the right, green is the color to be seen in this season according to the Italian fashion house.

The pleated skirt and asymmetric hem on this little number is perfect to show off Amal's impossibly long legs, and if you fancy giving your LBD a well-deserved night off too then you're in the luck. Her exact dress isn't available to buy, but an almost identical Versace version is up for grabs at Farfetch (click right).

'I had to start off by (going to) a Jerry Weintraub event... and then afterwards she and I got to sneak out and have a dinner,' he told Extra.

Host AJ teased him 'That was it, just a little dinner?'

'What are you gonna do, shoot off fireworks?', Clooney joked.

'You know, sometimes you just go to dinner,' he went on.

'This is the paper anniversary you don't want to go too crazy on the first, you know, you've got a lot more to do,' he said.

And the actor also revealed that his pal Cindy Crawford once ended up in bed with him after mistaking him for her husband Rande Gerber.

'She can't help herself,' he joked.

'No, it was one of the funnier, like, drunken nights out at their house where we, we, you know, had a couple of drinks and then couldn't go home and went to sleep and she thought I was Rande...and she hopped in my bed. That was pretty funny.'
