Hilary Duff to Join Cast of Gossip Girl
From Disney Channel to Gossip Girl
Gossip Girl actresses are becoming singers and singers are becoming Gossip Girl actresses. To be fair, Hilary Duff was an actress long ago, but now it's been announced she's joining the cast of Gossip Girl.
It seems as though the public has some very mixed reactions about the news. Maybe lots of us still think of Hilary Duff as the teeny bopper from the Disney Channel's Lizzy McGuire. But the truth is, she's all grown up and actually an extremely talented actress. How do you feel about Hilary joining the cast of Gossip Girl?
The now 21-year-old Hilary Duff has signed on to a multi-episode role as Olivia Burke, a movie star who is attending NYU to attempt to get a typical college experience (yeah right, like she's going to get a typical experience with Gossip Girl!). Her character will be roommates with Jessica Szohr's character Vanessa and she'll be engaging in some flirting with Penn Badgley's character of Dan.
Hilary's Gossip Girl debut is on October 5, the third show of season three. We wonder how many episodes Duff will last for. And furthermore, if she'll do a singing number with Leighton Meester and Taylor Momsen.
Are you looking forward to seeing Hilary Duff on Gossip Girl or would you rather she stay away?
