Taylor Swift is being lined up to appear in 'The Vampire Diaries'.

The singer - who recently completed filming her first movie, 'Valentine's Day' - has caught the eye of bosses on the hit US drama series who say they would "kill" to get her playing an undead creature.

Developer Kevin Williamson said: "I'm desperate to have Taylor come play a vampire. Wouldn't she make an amazing Kristen Dunst circa 'Interview with the Vampire' type? I cannot tell you how hard I'm trying to get her - I would kill to have her on the show."

Despite his determination, Kevin believes Taylor - who was honoured with four prizes at the Country Music Awards (CMAs) this week - would turn down the role.

He added to E! News: "She's too big for 'Vampire Diaries' now."

Taylor is currently rumoured to be dating her 'Valentine's Day' co-star Taylor Lautner - who plays warewolf Jacob Black in hit vampire movie franchise 'The Twilight Saga' - and recently begged movie bosses to give them a private screening of their new film.

She said: "I haven't seen 'Valentine's Day' at all. So hopefully we'll get to do a private screening because we both wanna see it so bad 'cause our scene was so much fun to do."
