France's President Nicolas Sarkozy's wife Carla Bruni-Sarkozy welcomes the guests at a state dinner at the Elysee Palace, in March 2008 in Paris.

French first lady Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, whose celebrity romance with President Nicolas Sarkozy sent his ratings into a tailspin, is proving a hit with the public in her new role, a poll showed Sunday.
According to the CSA poll, published in Le Parisien newspaper 10 days after the former supermodel-turned-singer wowed crowds in Britain on her first state visit, nine in 10 French people see her as "elegant" and "modern."
Bruni-Sarkozy's immaculately turned out appearance at Sarkozy's side during their March 26-27 visit to London drew admiring comparisons to Princess Diana and Jackie Kennedy in the British press.
Sixty-percent of respondents expected she would help to modernize France's image abroad, and 47 percent that she could help to promote French culture.
Another 73 percent described Bruni-Sarkozy as "nice". Sixty-nine percent thought she was "intelligent" and 61 percent "discreet" in the role of first lady.
But a majority of respondents, 64 percent, warned the first lady would not improve their view of Sarkozy, whose approval ratings have been stuck under the 40-percent mark since February.
A TNS-Sofres poll published in Le Figaro on Saturday showed the president's confidence rating steady at 37 percent, with 60 percent of respondents saying they did not trust him to solve France's problems.
Sarkozy's ratings plunged 20 points at the end of last year, as his divorce from his second wife Cecilia and highly-publicised romance with Bruni gave voters the impression he was neglecting his pledges on the economy.
Sarkozy married Bruni-Sarkozy on February 2. Cecilia married a Moroccan-born events organizer in New York on March 24.

上周日公布的一項民調顯示，法國新任第一夫人卡拉?布呂尼-薩科齊時下人氣大漲，而總統(tǒng)尼古拉斯?薩科齊則因大搞名人戀，導致其民眾支持率一路下滑。
該項在《巴黎人報》上公布的調查結果顯示，九成的法國民眾認為這位前超級名模兼歌手“優(yōu)雅”、“時尚”。十天前，首次陪丈夫出訪英國的布呂尼受到了當?shù)孛癖姷淖放酢?/font>
布呂尼于上月26日至27日陪同薩科齊訪問倫敦期間，憑其近乎完美的穿衣術贏得盛贊，英國媒體甚至大贊其堪比戴安娜王妃和杰奎琳?肯尼迪。
60%的受訪者希望這位新任第一夫人能讓法國的國際形象變得“現(xiàn)代化”，47%的人認為她能促進法國文化傳播。
73%的法國民眾認為布呂尼“迷人”，69%的受訪者認為她“有智慧”，61%的人認為她作為第一夫人表現(xiàn)得“端莊得體”。
盡管如此，但多數(shù)受訪者（64%）表示，這也無法挽回他們對薩科齊總統(tǒng)本人的看法，薩科齊的民眾支持率自今年2月以來從未突破40%。
上周六在《費加羅日報》上公布的一項TNS-Sofres調查顯示，目前薩科齊總統(tǒng)的民眾支持率一直停留在37%，60%的受訪民眾不信任他能解決好法國目前的各種問題。
薩科齊與第二任妻子塞西莉亞離婚，之后又與布呂尼高調談情，這使得選民認為他沒有認真對待當初改善法國經(jīng)濟的誓言。因此，在去年年底，薩科齊總統(tǒng)的民眾支持率陡降20個百分點。
薩科齊于2月2日與布呂尼完婚。其前妻塞西莉亞則于上月24日在紐約與一位摩洛哥籍公共活動策劃人結婚。
