While Oprah Winfrey was deemed the best secretary of state.

A spokesperson from , which commissioned the survey for the US Lottos, Powerball and MegaMillions, said: "The US is home to many popular faces.

“As recent history has shown, celebrity and political power in the USA has become even more inter-linked, with Arnie being governor of California – and of course, Donald Trump becoming president.

“But this has historical precedence too, former president Ronald Reagan who was in power in the 1980s, was a former actor too.”

The research also found 34 per cent of adults believe celebrities with huge platforms have a ‘duty’ to share their political views with others.

But 39 per cent admit they don’t like it when celebrities air their thoughts about politics over social media.

A third (34 per cent) believe a celebrity’s fame better qualifies them to connect with voters, than someone who is a career politician.
