Girls Aloud have reportedly signed up to appear in a new soap set in the music industry.
The online soap, called The Secret World Of Sam King, is based on the early career of Simon Cowell and follows the fortunes of a post-room boy who has an eye for spotting talent.
He sets up a secret office in his stationery cupboard and successfully launches new acts right under his bosses noses - is that what Simon Cowell did with Sinitta?
The show is being produced by Girls Aloud's record label and other acts rumoured to appear in the series include Duffy, The Feeling, Razorlight and even Amy Winehouse! Personally, we can't see that happening.
Several members of Girls Aloud are said to be keen to launch an acting career and the soap will give them the perfect opportunity to showcase their talents.
The soap is expected to debut on Bebo later this year.
Do you think Girls Aloud have what it takes to make it in the acting world? Should they stick to the singing or are you excited about this new soap? Let us know what you think...

Posted by: a.masefield on Thu Jul 17 01:38PM | Report abuseHow many of these fevered egos are there? Why do soap stars, and manufactured pop stars think they can just start "an acting/music career"? They have bugger all talent in their own field, so why polute another? Since when did apearing in a soap qualify as "acting" anyway... Are they to be "playing themselves" as is usual for these sort of things... 2 minutes being a wooden version of yourself does not count as acting. Mind you, stood next to a typical soap actor they will look better... "Stars" get this mad ego rush that because they are popular they can do anything... Kylie went from crap actress to superstar of the pop world, and THEN went and buggered up a perfectly good Dr Who Christmas special by thinking that because she was Kylie Minogue, she could act... Sorry @#$%, but my thought would be to stick at what you are almost good at, and thats singing (?) some pretty catching pop tunes that dont require a lot of thought, and also looking very nice while you are doing it!
