George Clooney showed off the two loves in his life on Monday night.

The Hollywood actor took both his mother and girlfriend to the Los Angeles premiere of his new movie Up In The Air - in which he stars as Ryan Bingham, a corporate downsizer who travels the country delivering bad news.

The 48-year-old star proudly walked up the red carpet with his girlfriend of five months, 31-year-old Italian TV presenter Elisabetta Canalis, and mother Nina Clooney, 70.

George - who has recently been inseparable from his new girlfriend - even poked fun at Elisabetta.

He said: "This is my mother... and then this random woman just came up!"

His mother Nina was heard joking "so, I guess you're my date tonight", when George was dragged away for interviews and she was left with Elisabetta.

This is not the first time George has brought his mother and a girlfriend to one of his film premieres.

In 2004, he shared the red carpet with his then-lover, British model Lisa Snowdon, and Nina at the premiere of 'Ocean's Twelve'.
