Matt Damon has fallen victim to one of George Clooney's pranks.
This time, the "Monument's Men" star, outdid himself by killing three birds with one stone. The three birds meaning Matt Damon, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler.
Damon explained the scenario during his appearance on "The Late Show With David Letterman" Wednesday night.
"I'm sitting at home and I get two fruit baskets, and they're the size of your desk - I'm not kidding! They're the biggest things I've ever seen. And one says Letter No. 1 with an envelope attached, and the other says here's Letter No. 2 with an envelope attached. I open the first envelope and it's this apology from Tina and Amy saying, 'We really thought you could take a joke. We're sorry we hurt your feeling.'"
The second letter was far more hilarious and telling. The 43-year-old actor read, "'Dear Matt, if your note is part of some George Clooney prank, as I very strongly suspect it is, you A-list amateurs are gonna have to step it the f-k up. We are not some easily confused starlets you're dealing with here. We are grown-ass professional comediennes. Please accept this fruit as a token of our sincerity. Best wishes, Elizabeth 'Tina' Fey and Amy 'Boston' Poehler.'"
Clooney read the letter he had written at a Sirius XM Town Hall event.
"I sent her a letter saying, 'Dear Tina, it's from Matt. Look, it sounds hypocritical because I laughed at the jokes about George and Leo, but you know, that's sort of what people think about them. But when you called me a garage man, it just seemed like low hanging fruit, it just seemed like an easy joke," Clooney explains.
He continues, "And you know, I don't want an apology, I don't want anything else, I just want you to know that my kid now calls me the garbage man."
The 52-year-old actor can say he's gotten revenge for Tina Fey's joke at the Golden Globes describing Alfonso Cuaron's "Gravity" as "the story of how George Clooney would rather float away into space and die rather than spend one more minute with a woman his own age."
There seems to be more in store for the Golden Globe hosts.
Clooney has promised, "That's the appetizer. And what's coming now, the main course, it's pretty brutal."
