Hillary Duff, once a hot commodity in Hollywood, is now lending some heat to Gossip Girl.

"The actress-designer-pop chanteuse will play Olivia Burke, a movie star who enrolls at NYU in search of a traditional college experience. She ends up rooming with Vanessa (Jessica Szohr) so it's safe to say she'll be majoring in Drama!"

seriously?
this is going to be awful.
terrible.

I do not think that Hillary Duff si a good idea! She ruined the episode of CSI that she was in and even though I used to like her singing, I am a fan no longer because she ruins things! Sorry to be so negative but...thats the way I feel

ohh nooo:( THATS AWEFUL. ITS GUNNA WELL PUT ME OFF THE SHOW:( dont put her on it :( shes a disney channel actor

she's simply the Best!!! :D

I think this is probably a terrible idea. If she plays a trashy, snotty, dumb LA type actress who gets into a ton of cat fights with Vanessa I suppose it could be amusing. If they actually try to play her off as another classy upper east sider it is going to be a disaster.

:D mmm lets see

Seriously? Not Hateing On Hillary Duff Or Anything But My Opinion Is That She Is Not Good For The Part.

:(

It is not a good idea, she just doesn't fit in with the show at all. She will have to try very hard to convince the audience otherwise.
Why pick her anyway, I'm sure there are plenty of other more suitable candidates.
And I swear its spelt with one l.
Hilary? I don't know :)

please say this is some sick joke. the girl can't act
