Victoria Beckham lands Gossip Girl role

Former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham has signed up for a guest role in Gossip Girl.

Victoria Beckham has agreed to a cameo in hit TV show Gossip Girl, The Mirror reports. While the former Spice Girl has confessed to being a huge fan of the show, insiders say it was Gossip Girl stars Leighton Meester and Blake Lively's love of Victoria's clothing line that paved the way for the cameo. "Blake and co-star Leighton Meester are fans of Victoria's designs, and have both worn her dresses," a source claimed. "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. Victoria isn't an actress and wanted her role to be very tongue-in-cheek. And an idea for her to play Ed Westwick's long-lost mother was quickly vetoed. Victoria joked that she'd rather play his ex-love interest!"
