When you want to conjure up some ratings magic, a special guest star always helps. And if you can get the star to commit for a few episodes during May sweeps, well that's even better. With that in mind,
the CW has signed Michelle Trachtenberg for a multi-episode arc on Gossip Girl.
Michelle, who has a loyal following from her days as Dawn on
Buffy the Vampire Slayer, is going to play Georgina Sparks on
Gossip Girl. Georgina is a character from the books that are the basis for the series about a bunch of upper-class, uptown Manhattan high school kids. Georgina shows up directly from a stint in rehab, and quickly begins screwing up Serena van der Woodsen's life.
The part of Georgina will appear for a few shows, and reportedly Michelle had competition for the part, i.e. Mischa Barton. Michelle has a new movie with Topher Grace and Anna Faris in the can,
Kids In America.

Wow she looks beat in that picture. Or just older, don't know.
Her Sex Scene in Six Feet Under felt creepy. She still looked so young and... I don't know. I remembered her Buffy days and... I dont't know. It was an opportunity to emancipate herself from the role but I felt like watching a buff black guy having sex with a sixteen year old girl. *shudder*
But then again who could say no, even the "gay" guy couldn't...
