Anderson Swept Away By Clinton

Actress GILLIAN ANDERSON has discovered the secret behind former U.S. President BILL CLINTON's sex appeal - lingering eye contact.

The X-Files star was shocked to find herself falling under Clinton's spell when they met recently, and she's convinced every woman he meets experiences the same thing.

Anderson recalled her meeting with the former president during an appearance on The Late Show in America on Monday night (28Jul08).

She said, "We all, mostly women, lined up. And when he gets to you, he takes your hand and makes eye contact. After he leaves and he moves on to the next person, he looks back at you and seals the deal.

"When I got home, I expected to have a message from him, and I didn't. I bet women across America expect it too."

Clinton sealed his unwanted reputation as a ladies' man following his White House sex scandal with intern Monica Lewinsky.
