Victoria Beckham To Star In U.S. Hit ‘Gossip Girl’ Victoria Beckham |
Victoria Beckham is set to join the cast of hit U.S. drama Gossip Girl - playing herself.
The former Spice Girl thrilled viewers with a cameo role in Ugly Betty in 2007 and now she's landed another prime time job.
Beckham was approached by actress Blake Lively to appear in the show - and producers quickly snapped her up, according to Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper.
A source tells the publication, "Blake and co-star Leighton Meester are fans of Victoria's designs, and have both worn her dresses.
"Blake attended the unveiling of Victoria's new collection in New York last month, alongside the series' stylist Eric Damen.
"The trio started chatting and Victoria revealed she was a huge fan of the show. From here, Blake pleaded with her to guest star in an episode and ran the idea past producers. She (Beckham) isn't an actress and wanted her role to be very tongue-in-cheek."
