Amal Clooney Is Officially the Most Fascinating Person of 2014

Amal Clooney topped Barbara Walters' list of Most Fascinating People of 2014, giving us all one more reason to feel painfully inadequate by comparison. Formerly Amal Alamuddin, the human rights lawyer beat out names like Taylor Swift, Oprah Winfrey, Elon Musk, and David Koch for the title, proving that her intrigue outshone that of everyone else for the entire year.

Find out just how fascinating Amal is in the clip from ABC's Sunday night special, above.

Sure, she's married to George Clooney, but Amal is also smart, stylish, and cultured. Click through the photo gallery below to learn more about her.
