Klum to appear in 'Desperate Housewives'

Heidi Klum is set to guest star in 'Desperate Housewives'.

The German supermodel has signed a deal with ABC - the network which produces the US TV series - to play herself in a forthcoming episode alongside Swedish model Paulina Porizkova.

In the episode former model Gabrielle Solis (Eva Longoria Parker) and Angie Bolan (Drea de Matteo) bump into Heidi and Paulina in New York City, although further details of their scenes are yet to be released.

Meanwhile, one of the show's male stars, James Denton, has revealed he hopes the programme continues for ten seasons and that the producers see fit to keep paying its highest earning female stars.

James - Mike Delfino in the show - told E! Online: "The women are the ones who have to sign up. Whatever they slide across the table, I'll sign.

"Honestly, I say that jokingly, but I really am kind of curious, because it's almost time to start renegotiating with the women. And I really hope they all feel the same way as me, because it is such a fun show."
