Kelly Brook and Billy ZaneKelly Brook and Billy ZaneCould Kelly Brook really go from being a dud Big Breakfast presenter to America's First Lady?

No, it's not a film script for a Martine McCutcheon-style Love Actually scenario - but real life... if her man Billy Zane has anything to do with it.

Billy has decided that he rather fancies being the US President - and wants Kelly by his side in the White House.

An exec on Billy's new movie, The Last Drop, told the Daily Mirror at the Cannes Film Festival: "When he first discussed standing for President, everyone thought Billy was having a laugh.

"But he explained that he'd looked into funding.

"He said Ronald Reagan went from actor to President, so he doesn't see his lack of experience as a hindrance."

The source added: "He told co-stars Nick Moran and Michael Madsen he thought Kelly being British wouldn't affect her popularity as First Lady."

According to the Mirror, Zane has the support of millionaire pal Ivana Trump and plans to launch his bid in about eight years' time.
