Claire Sweeney, 37, is a British TV personality. According to Wikipedia, Claire Sweeney is best known for playing the role of Lindsey Corkhill in the British soap opera Brookside. Ms. Sweeney now claimed that former President Bill Clinton had once wanted to flirt with her on a party in Russia but she rejected the request and thought he was a “dirty dog.”

TV presenter Claire Sweeney has revealed she was chatted up by Bill Clinton at a fancy dress party.

The former Brookside star was at a bash in Russia, hosted by Cliff Richard, when Clinton, who was U.S. President at the time, approached her, dressed as an admiral.

Sweeney, who was at the party with her then-boyfriend businessman Tony Hibbard, told Channel Five’s The Wright Stuff: ‘Clinton came over and started chatting me up.

‘I thought: “You dirty dog”.

‘His bodyguard then came over and said: “Mr President, we need to go”.’

However, Clinton managed to shake off his bodyguard and swiftly made a beeline back to Sweeney, who was dressed in a saucy Dangerous Liaisons-style outfit.

The 37-year-old asked him: ‘You don’t want to go, do you?

‘He said “How can you tell?”

‘I said “Because your left leg is dancing”.’

To which 62-year-old Clinton is alleged to have responded: ‘My middle leg will be dancing soon!’

Sweeney, who played Roxie Hart in the musical Chicago, joked: ‘I shook his hand but decided I was going home with a clean dress that night!’

Do you think Sweeney is fame whoring? Anyway, it’s interesting to see how will Bill Clinton respond to Ms. Sweeney’s claim. We guess he will deny her claim.
