Ashley Judd says she won't be running for a spot in the U.S. Senate, representing Kentucky.

"Regretfully, I am currently unable to consider a campaign for the Senate," Judd tweeted Wednesday. "I have spoken to so many Kentuckians over these last few months who expressed their desire for a fighter for the people & new leader.

"While that won't be me at this time, I will continue to work as hard as I can to ensure the needs of Kentucky families are met by returning this Senate seat to whom it rightfully belongs: the people & their needs, dreams, and great potential.

The beautiful Double Jeopardy star, 44, continued, "Thanks for even considering me as that person & know how much I love our Commonwealth.
