George Clooney already has an Oscar under his handsome belt.

But we have a feeling the Emmy Award he's been assured of will mean more.

Earlier today, The Academy of Television Arts and Sciences announced it will present the charitable actor with its Bob Hope Humanitarian Award at this year's ceremony on August 29.

Citing Clooney's efforts as the head of Hope for Haiti, as well as his fundraising for victims of Hurricane Katrina and his involvement with Darfur, John Shaffner - chairman and chief executive of the TV academy -  said this was "an obvious choice."

We agree.
