Bleeding Love singer Leona Lewis wants TV bosses to take her song lyrics literally - she is desperate to land a role in hit vampire series True Blood.

The British pop star admits she is obsessed with the blood-sucking show and is hoping to swap the stage for the small screen by sinking her teeth into her first acting role.

She tells Britain's Sugar magazine, "I'm totally mad over shows like True Blood. I'd die if someone asked me to be in something like that. It'd be a dream come true."

However, Lewis would settle for a part in the Twilight movie franchise, alongside Robert Pattinson - because she has a crush on his werewolf co-star Taylor Lautner.

She adds, "I'm obsessed with the Twilight films. Everyone seems to fancy Rob, but I'm definitely Team Taylor! I think he's really hot."
