Myleene Klass plans to crack America

Presenter has caught the attention of US bosses

Myleene Klass gave birth to daughter Ava in August last year

Myleene Klass has revealed she was approached to host a prime-time show on MTV in the States.

But the 30-year-old presenter, who currently fronts CNN show The Screening Room, says she reluctantly had to turn down the role due to other work commitments. Yet it's given her a taste for doing something in the US.

'America is a huge market and I’d love to work over there,’ she tells The Sun. ‘Working for CNN has opened the door to America for me.

'I love doing it – I get to go all over the world to report on different things. It’s amazing MTV tapped into what I do and, fingers crossed, it’s still in the pipeline for me.’

But former Hear'say singer Myleene, whose career took off again after appearing in I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2006, says she could never live abroad permanently.

‘I really want to do America but London is always going to be the place I call home,’ she says.

She's back on our screens later this month presenting Miss Naked Beauty with Gok Wan.
