We've got the answer to that and several other, um, interesting facts Mitt and Ann Romney coughed up during an interview with Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan.
Kelly Ripa: Who would you pick to play each other in the movie?
Mitt: Uh, let’s see. Let me think about that. For me, my favorite actor is Gene Hackman, so I’d like Gene Hackman.
Kelly: You’d like Gene Hackman to play your wife?
Romney: No, to play me! Oh, to play her? Oh! [LOTS OF LAUGHTER/Crosstalk]
Kelly: Is this your first marital fight?
Ann: I bet Gene would really think that would be a great idea.
Mitt: You know, what was that movie he was in? Birdcage when he… [crosstalk] No, I think for her maybe Michelle Pfieffer.
Kelly: That’s actually perfect.
Ann: Oh, he’s made it easy for me, Gene Hackman.
Kelly: What’s the most embarrassing thing besides this show you’ve ever done?
Mitt: I’ll tell one of her (tells story of falling on her butt in Dubuque that you all know already).
Ann: We had the unbelievable pleasure of spending the night at the White House and the next morning I was like, exploring everywhere. And I was supposed to be at meetings and Mitt was like, "Ann you’re supposed to go," and I said "No, I’m exploring." I went into one door — I was with Anita Perry, by the way, I’ll put blame on her. And Anita and I were like, "We wonder what’s behind this door?" It was George Bush having a massage. [CROWD GOES NUTS]
Kelly: Which George Bush?
Ann: George W, and he was covered up but I was so embarrassed that the next time I did see him I didn’t know what I was going to say to him. We were going down the elevator from the White House going to an event together and I walked up to the elevator and am just like blushing, blushing, blushing and he looks at me and he winks as he does and says, "I look pretty good, don’t I?"
