Exclusive: Hilary Duff joins 'Gossip Girl'

Is the Upper East Side big enough for Serena, Blair and the Duffster?! We're about to find out because the onetime tween sensation is joining Gossip Girl for a multi-episode arc, sources confirm to me exclusively.

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!

Duff will debut in this season's fourth episode, slated to air Oct. 5.

Gossip producers spotted an opening in Duff's schedule after NBC passed on her comedy pilot Barely Legal.

What say you, Gossip gurus? Do you approve of Duff's casting? Thoughts on who she'll be paired with romantically? (My guess: Dan.) Sound off below!

I'm no fan, but man, everytime I see Hilary, I just sigh and wish she'd stayed with 90210 as Annie. Instead, where stuck with Shenae, though she's finally at least trying to act.

Why all the hate for La Duff? I love Hilary. I think she'll do great on Gossip Girl.

I, too, wish she would've stayed with 90210. She would have been great on that show.

I didn't know she was supposed to be on 90210. I think she would have been waaaay better than Grimey.

GLad to see her on TV again. I used to watch Lizzie when I was babysitting lol.

I don't mind Hilary Duff. She's much better then 99.9% of the other young hollywood actors.

Yeah I'm starting to warm up to Duff, after seeing her in some guest appearances such as on Ghost Whisperer. Though I think going to GG is a step down for her now, I would have probably liked her on the improving 90210 as a vixen.
