Stacy Keibler wants to star in romantic comedies.

The 33-year-old model walked the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival without her boyfriend George Clooney, and admitted she plans to steal his spotlight on the big screen by becoming an actress. "Romantic comedies are more my speed. I feel like that's more my personality. I'm usually happy, smiling, joking and having a good time so I think those kind of roles suit me. Comedy and dramedy is what I'm better at," she said.

The striking star has had small guest parts in How I Met Your Mother and Men at Work, but is hoping to progress to the silver screen as soon as the right role comes along. "[I would] If the right opportunity came to work with the right director and the right people..." she added.

However, Stacy failed to name George - who couldn't attend as he was filming in Germany - when asked which A-list actor she'd like to work with. "I loved Tom Hanks. He was always one of my favorites. I remember thinking as a little girl, 'I wish I could work with Tom Hanks. He was so brilliant in Forrest Gump," she gushed.
