Russell Brand has the hots for Uma

Uma Thurman is being pursued by womanizing British comic star Russell Brand.

The actor - who can soon be seen starring alongside Kirsten Bell in 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' - thinks he would be the perfect man for 'Kill Bill' star Uma.

Russell told Nuts magazine: "Uma Thurman is lovely. She's like a gorgeous statue that's come to life. I just want to crawl up onto her lap and pretend to be a baby."

However, Russell is not saving himself for Uma, and revealed he slept with a weather girl when he was in the US shooting 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall'.

He said: "I must say it was tremendous fun. I just said, 'Hello, give us a cuddle, please,' and she went, 'Right, here's the weather.' Let me tell you, it was stormy that night, with a very warm front!"

Russell, who is set to become a global star after winning rave reviews for his performance in the movie, also says he based his character Aldous Snow on a combination of different rock stars.

He added: "I based Snow on a number of people - one of whom was Sir Mick Jagger, who, in his heyday, was a gloriously aloof, sexually androgynous prince of decadence. And more laterally, Oasis stars Liam and Noel Gallagher."

Uma is currently dating businessman Arpad Busson.
