Hilary Duff:The Newest 'Gossip Girl'

Hilary Duff: The Newest ‘Gossip Girl’Hilary Duff got her start playing the sweet and wholesome titled character in the Disney series, Lizzie Maguire. Now Duff is making her television comeback in a not so wholesome show.

A CW spokeswoman confirmed that Duff will be mingling with Gossip Girl's Upper East Siders as they get ready to make the transition to college. The 21-year-old actress has signed on for a multi-episode stint as Olivia Burke, a movie star who enrolls at New York University seeking a conventional college experience (the Olsen twins were not available for comment). Duff’s character will be roommates with Vanessa (Jessica Szohr) and get her flirt on with Dan (Penn Badgley) who is unaware of Burke's fame.

In December, Duff confessed to being a fan of the show. No word yet on if the former Disney teen queen will interact with her favorite character, resident bad boy Chuck Bass.

The third season of Gossip Girl premieres September 14. Duff’s storyline begins in the fourth episode airing October 5.
