Victoria Beckham Washington, Oct 19 (ANI): Victoria Beckham a.k.a Posh is set to appear on hit U.S. drama Gossip Girl.

The wife of soccer ace David Beckham is set to play herself in the show.

According to Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper, the former Spice Girl, who did a cameo role in Ugly Betty in 2007, was approached by actress Blake Lively to join the cast - and producers quickly snapped her up.

“Blake and co-star Leighton Meester are fans of Victoria’s designs, and have both worn her dresses,” Contactmusic quoted a source as telling the publication.

“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,” the source added. (ANI)
