Kevin Spacey would rather be a drug addict than a politician.

The 'Telstar' actor insists that despite being a close friend of former US President Bill Clinton he has no plans to follow in his footsteps and run for office.

He told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "I would never ever think about going into politics.

"I would rather become a crack addict. I think you can be just as effective in public service."

I will never renounce being American but there is a part of me that is British now

One reason why Spacey does not want to run for election in America is his continued love of the UK.

The 49-year-old star is even thinking of applying for dual citizenship after seven years living in London.

He added: "I love living in London. I can say with all sincerity that London is my home.

"I was in New York before. It is a great city but my focus for the next six years will be in Britain.

"I will never renounce being American but there is a part of me that is British now. I may go for that dual citizenship, who knows."

Although Spacey is happy with his career he confessed he would love to appear in a James Bond movie.

He added: "I would love to play the villain in Bond but they haven't called yet. It would be fantastic."
