Gerard Butler: 'I've got Washington in the palm of my hand!' Gerard Butler posts comedy snapshots of his weekend in the capital By ELEANOR GOWE (MAIL ON LINE)

After a night schmoozing at the Correspondent's Dinner at the White House, Gerard Butler decided it was high time for a spot of sight seeing.

The star posted a photograph on his Twitter page showing him pretending to hold the U.S. Capitol Building in his hand.

'I've got Washington in the palm of my hand,;' he wrote on his Twitter page, perhaps also in reference to his latest movie Olumpus Has Fallen in which he saves the capital from terrorist attack.

In another shot, he posts a picture of himself enjoying a 'Man Date' with Piers Morgan on their way to the Correspondent's Dinner, looking dapper in a suit and bow tie.
