Not everyone is a fan of George Clooney and his wife, Amal Alamuddin.

The Inquisitr is reporting that during a Time Warner shareholders meeting held on Friday in Atlanta, GA, a female shareholder slammed the couple.

"An unhinged female shareholder launched into a lengthy rant about George Clooney and his wife, attorney Amal Alamuddin," a source claimed.

The Wrap reported that the unnamed woman said to Time Warner Chairman and CEO Jeff Bewkes, "I have a compensation question...How much have we paid George Clooney for 'Gravity?' How much money went to Amal Alamuddin, a foreign fiancée and spouse? To her family, to Lebanon, to the mayor of Rome to officiate at the wedding? To Arab contractors to renovate his home in London? Are there violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act? His marriage to a 37-year-old Lebanese lawyer is problematic at best."

The shareholder allegedly continued her rant by insulting Alamuddin's physical appearance and work. She said, "Ms. Alamuddin has been portrayed in the press as a sexy, international civil rights lawyer. She is not. She is a criminal lawyer. A defense attorney who puts the worst tyrants back on the streets."

Bewkes reportedly tried to end the tirade. He answered the shareholder's question about where Clooney's money was going by stating, "In terms of what any of our actors, directors, writers make as citizens of the United States, they're free to spend their money where they choose, and it is not something that our company has any influence over, or power about, nor do we have knowledge of it, and we should not further detour this meeting to discuss those matters."

The Hollywood Reporter stated that the majority of the questions and proposals at the meeting had "political overtones."
