Katherine McPhee to Guest Star on CSI: NY

The CSI shows love to book random people on their shows. Especially musicians! Taylor Swift just finished up her gig on CSI, while Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz had a cameo on CSI: NY last month.

Now it’s Katharine McPhee’s turn! According to The Hollywood Reporer, the former Idol contestant has just booked a spot on CSI: NY.

This isn’t Katherine’s first acting gig though. She actually appeared on Ugly Betty as herself in 2007, and then stepped it up a notch playing a sorority girl in the movie House Bunny.

But now Katherine will be able to combine both her love of acting and singing, as she’ll be playing a singer on the show. This should get her ready for yet another big screen role coming up in the romantic comedy Wedlocked. Katherine will star opposite Brothers & Sisters star Dave Annable.

She’s definitely one of the Idol success stories! It looks like acting is becoming her thing more than singing though!
