Lindsay Lohan is about to get Ugly! That's right folks - the movie star and constant paparazzi target is joining the cast of ABC's Ugly Betty for six episodes.

Beginning with the season two finale of Ugly Betty on May 22, Lohan will "play a mean girl from high school who suddenly resurfaces in Betty's life." When the series returns in the fall, the actress will continue her role for another five episodes.

Is this a case of the starlet not able to find work in the movie business or just simply a part of the ongoing trend of movie stars flocking to the small screen? Either way, adding a star of Lohan's caliber certainly speaks volumes about the future of this fantastic series.
