60s sex siren now wants to be French Prez

Here's all you need to know about the next French presidential candidate Brigitte Bardot

Brigitte Bardot likes it loud. During the prudish 50s and the swinging 60s, the French actress' explosive sexuality took USA by storm. The 'sex kitten' didn't turn into an obscure hag once the wrinkles made their appearance, though. BB, as she is known among fans, turned into a vocal animal rights activist, and at 76, is now planning to run for the post of French president in the 2010 elections.



Current President Nicolas Sarkozy 'took her for an idiot' by not keeping to his manifesto that promises to outlaw traditional Muslim treatment of animalsu00a0-- that's her reason to run for Prez.In a letter published in the French press, Bardot wrote: Because you do the opposite of what you say, I am studying a proposition from the Independent Ecology Alliance to be their presidential candidate in 2012.

What this means is that if elected, the controversial, outspoken septuagenarian might enforce a law that bans halal meat and ensures that animals are stunned before their throats are slit. After the ban on burqas, we are not too sure how the five-million strong Muslim population in France is going to take BB's move.

All that BB has said

In an interview with a French glossy:
ufffdCarla Bruni (who) is as beautiful as she is badly brought-up.


In a section in the book titled, Open Letter to My Lost France:
...my country, France, my homeland, my land is again invaded by an overpopulation of foreigners, especially Muslims.


In a letter to Sarkozy:
Someone's voice is needed to defend animals as neither the Right nor the Left give a damn!


On Sarah Palin:
By denying the responsibility of man in global warming, by advocating gun rights and making statements that are disconcertingly stupid, you are a disgrace to women and you alone represent a terrible threat, a true environmental catastrophe.
