George Clooney and girlfriend Stacy Keibler walked hand in hand on the 2012 Oscars Red Capet Sunday February 26, 2012 held at the Hollywood & Highland Center in Hollywood.

The statuesque beauty, Stacy, 32, stunned in a metallic gold strapless Marchesa dress, Lorraine Schwartz jewels and Judith Leiber clutch. George, 50, was nominated as Best Actor for his work in The Descendants and looked handsome in a classic Giorgio Armani tuxedo.

Before the big event, Keibler Tweeted, “We are off!!!! I feel like I’m going to the prom. #oscars SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!”

What did Clooney think about his prom date? “She looks good, huh?” he asked Access Hollywood’s Billy Bush. “By the way, she’s not wearing a dress –she’s just been sprayed gold.”
