George Clooney may be making big bucks as the face of Nestlé coffee company, Nespresso, but he's not spending it on what you might think.

The 52-year-old actor and well-known activist recently told the Guardian the money he earns from the campaign goes towards funding a satellite keeping watch on Sudan and its leader.

"Most of the money I make on the [Nespresso] commercials I spend keeping a satellite over the border of North and South Sudan to keep an eye on Omar al-Bashir," the actor said of keeping watch on the Sudanese dictator, known for his heinous war crimes. 

"Then he puts out a statement saying that I'm spying on him and how would I like it if a camera was following me everywhere I went and I go," he continued,  "Well welcome to my life Mr. War Criminal. I want the war criminal to have the same amount of attention that I get. I think that's fair."

Clooney has long been an advocate for human rights and runs The Satellite Sentinel Project, which uses satellite technology to track the movement of the Sudanese army and warns civilians of upcoming attacks, according to the Huffington Post.

Clooney was also arrested in 2012 during a protest at the Sudanese embassy in Washington, D.C.

"We're here to ask two very important questions," he said at the time. "We need immediate humanitarian aid into Sudan before it becomes the worst humanitarian crisis in the world and...the second thing we ask is for the government in Khartoum to stop killing their own men, women and children...stop raping them and stop starving them."

According to the Huffington Post, al-Bashir is thought to have most recently fled the country in order to avoid arrest for war crimes and human rights violations.
