Dennis Quaid had to pile on the pounds to play former U.S. President Bill Clinton in new movie The Special Relationship and he found the ex-leader's love of McDonald's to be a great help.

Quaid also had to have his eyebrows shaved to play the President

The actor admits he visited the fast food chain at least once a day while he was preparing to play Clinton - because it was an easy way to pack on weight.

He says, "I gained about 25 - 30 pounds and that consisted of having eight meals a day but at least once going to McDonald's, just like he did - except I didn't jog there like he did".

Quaid also had to have his eyebrows shaved to play the President.

He explains, "He has no eyebrows really... He does have some, but they're really thin".
