RENO APPROVES OF PAL SARKOZY'S WIFE

Movie star JEAN RENO is a big fan of France's First Lady, former model CARLA BRUNI - because she's good for his homeland, and for his friend, leader NICOLAS SARKOZY. The Da Vinci Code star is impressed with Bruni's outspoken nature, and he thinks it's good to have a First Lady who doesn't always agree with her husband.
He explains, "She's accepted because she speaks very frankly. She's not always on the same boat as him, and sometimes she can say things which are not in his politics.
"So she can say, 'I don't agree with that.' People are very happy about that because they feel that she's free but in love."
And it's that which makes Reno happy - because Bruni has lifted his friend's spirits: "He was very sad after the divorce (from second wife Cecilia in 2007). It was difficult for him, so I think she is very good for him."
