After a few years as one of the brightest stars of "reality" (well, sorta) TV, Lauren Conrad is taking the plunge into real acting!
Entertainment Weekly reports that the Hills starlet has signed on for a guest star as herself in the season finale to the second series of ABC Family's college soap Greek!
Series creator Sean Smith spoke to EW about Lauren's role, saying she'll be playing a "spiritual adviser" to Spencer Grammer's character in a dream sequence reminiscent of Frankie Avalon counseling Frenchie in Grease. "Casey and LC are best friends," Smith told the mag, "Casey has a big decision she has to make, and she's like, 'LC, what do I do? Advise me!"
Although Lauren's episode won't contain any Hills references, Smith assures Hills fans that he kept their favorite show in mind while writing Lauren's scene. "There are a lot of 'likes' to make it sound more conversational," he claims - he even hints at the possible inclusion of a trademark Hills pause or two!
The episode featuring Lauren is currently scheduled to air on October 28th. We're setting our TiVos now - after all, this is the role Lauren was born to play!
Are you pumped for this? We sure are!
