Rome - Italian porn star and former parliamentarian "La
Cicciolina" has offered to give herself to Iraqi President Saddam
Hussein in exchange for world peace, according to an interview
published on Friday.
"I offer myself to Saddam in exchange for universal peace," the
Hungarian-born actress, whose real name is Ilona Staller, told
Catalan daily El Periodico.
"I would do it holding my nose and closing my eyes. I would do
it for peace," she said, adding that she had already made the offer
to the Iraqi leader during the 1991 Gulf war.
When asked if her well-known stunt of exposing her breasts
during political appearances in Italy had not undermined her
credibility, the porn star answered: "My breasts have never done
anyone any harm, while (Osama) bin Laden's war has caused thousands
of victims."
La Cicciolina, who on Thursday attended the opening of
Barcelona's 10th erotic film festival, was formerly a deputy for
Italy's Radical Party.
She made an unsuccessful bid for a seat in the Hungarian parliament in April. - Sapa-DPA
