Sarah Larson: I met George Clooney at his birthday party

Cocktail waitress first partied with the Hollywood star 'three or four' years ago

As George Clooney's girlfriend, cocktail waitress Sarah Larson is dating one of the planet's most eligible bachelors.

The couple were believed to have met for the first time at the June 2007 Ocean's Thirteen premiere at the Palms Casino Resort on Las Vegas - but Sarah says this isn't so.

'It was on his birthday three or four years ago at Whiskey at [Vegas's] Green Valley Ranch,' she tells the Las Vegas Review Journal. 'I was with some friends. We were all dancing, taking pictures, being silly.'

George was with a group of pals and, at the time Sarah - who was working as a cocktail server at the venue – was dating someone else.

They met up again when George, 46, arrived in Vegas for the Ocean premiere last summer, reports People.com.

'He heard I was working at Moon [nightclub],' says Sarah. 28. They 'hung out' and a month later George invited Sarah to go to Italy.
