Victoria Beckham is set to star in an episode of 'Ugly Betty'.

The former Spice Girl, who is married to soccer superstar David, is being lined up to play herself in an episode of the hit US show.

Actor Eric Mabius, who plays fashion magazine Mode's editor-in-chief Daniel Meade in the series, let slip that bosses have made initial steps to secure Victoria - who is moving to America in July when David begins his contract with MLS soccer team Los Angeles Galaxy - for a cameo role.

He said: "Victoria is keen and so are we. We can see her fitting in as a cameo now she is about to be big in the US."

The mother-of-three is desperate to be a huge success Stateside and is hoping her appearance on the show will help raise her profile.

Since her Spice Girl glory days, Victoria has become a style icon and reinvented herself as a fashion designer.

The 33-year-old penned her own style guide, 'That Extra Half An Inch: Hair, Heels And Everything In Between', and designed a range of jeans for label Rock and Republic.

Although her denim range was a huge commercial success, the collaboration ended acrimoniously last year.

The company were said to be furious after Victoria quit and wouldn't let her use the embroidered crown logo.

Victoria is currently designing a new range of jeans which will be released under her own label DVB.
