The Pop Stars Keep Coming: Kesha Will *Also* Appear on 'Jane the Virgin'
She joins Britney Spears for season two.
Update, 9/1: Seems Brit Brit isn't the only pop singer heading to Miami—Kesha has just signed on to guest star in season 2 of Jane the Virgin as well, according to E! News. But unlike Britney, who will be playing herself, Kesha will be playing Annabelle, a new next door neighbor of Jane who is not a fan of living next to a crying baby.
The role will come into play on episode two, and will be Kesha's first acting role, and it seems Kesha is super excited:
Stoked!!!!! I’ll be making a guest starring appearance on @CWJanetheVirgin on @CW! 💃💃September 1, 2015
And she's not alone. Gina Rodriguez is quite pumped, too:
And considering Rodriguez has name-dropped other celebs she'd love to have on her show, we'd say this is only the beginning.
Original story, 8/11: Everything about this is amazing: Britney Spears is heading to Marbella Hotel, as she'll be joining the cast of Jane the Virgin for an episode in season 2, reports Time.
The performer will have a small part as Rogelio De La Vega's "nemesis." De La Vega is a telenovela superstar and father to Jane Villanueva, played by Gina Rodriguez.
See u at the Marbella Hotel soon, @hereisgina @jaimecamil! 🙈 Guest starring on one of my favorite shows EVER @CWJaneTheVirgin #DreamComeTrueAugust 11, 2015
"We are so thrilled that Rogelio's 'nemesis'—Britney Spears—has agreed to appear on Jane The Virgin in episode 205," Jennie Snyder Urman said in a statement. "Personally, after hearing about their long-standing feud (from Rogelio's point of view), we are eager to hear Ms. Spears' side of the story, which we assume is quite different. #TeamBritney"
