Victoria Beckham, now living in Los Angeles, is going Hollywood. Despite her recent denials about being interested in an acting career, Beckham (aka Posh Spice) is taking a first step by playing herself in an episode of the ABC comedy Ugly Betty – which screens on Showtime in the Middle East.
Well, it’s not technically “acting if she is going to be herself in front of the cameras.
In announcing the casting Thursday, the network said Beckham will play a celebrity bridesmaid at the wedding of Wilhelmina Slater (Vanessa Williams) and publisher Bradford Meade (Alan Dale).
Posh moved from England to LA in July after her soccer-star husband, David, signed a five-year contract to play for the Galaxy of Major League Soccer.
At the time, she denied that she had aspirations for an acting career. She s been keeping herself busy while her hubby, David Beckham, bends it on US soccer fields.
Posh is slated to take part in a Spice Girls reunion tour beginning December, and has launched her own fashion label called dVb ass well as her own line of fragrances.
