LOS ANGELES: British human rights lawyer Amal Clooney, who is married to actor George Clooney, feels

a “certain responsibility” being in the public eye, but wants to use her new found fame for “good”.

“I think it’s wonderful that celebrities would choose to spend their time or energy or, you know, the spotlight that they have to raise awareness about these causes,” Amal told NBC News, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

“I don’t really see myself in the same way because I’m still doing the same job that I used to do before. If there’s more attention paid — for whatever reason — to that, then I think that’s good.

“I think there is a certain responsibility that comes with that. And you know, I think I’m exercising it in an appropriate manner by continuing to do this kind of work.”

George had said he thinks Amal is smart, he often feels like an “idiot” when they sit down for a chat.
