    :
    Victoria Beckham has landed a guest role as a princess on TV cartoon favourite Spongebob Squarepants.

    Posh, 34, recorded the voice-over late last year in LA to join a list of A-list stars, including Johnny Depp, Scarlett Johansson and David Bowie who all have had cameos on the hit show.

    She was persuaded to take the part by youngest son Cruz, four - who is a huge fan of Spongebob.

    And her performance impressed Nickelodeon bosses so much, the former Spice Girl is being lined up for more voice-over work.

    A source said: "Victoria was a complete pro and finished all her takes in a day.


    "She isn't interested in becoming an actress, but voice-over work is something that appealed. She joked that she could simply rock up to the studios in a trackie and no make-up and no one would ever know.

    "Spongebob is Cruz's favourite show, so he was incredibly excited.

    "Scriptwriters created the role of a posh British princess especially for her and were blown away by what a natural she was. Victoria enjoyed every minute and is keen to do more. Network bosses have been in touch since, offering more work - she really does have her pick of projects."

    Spongebob Squarepants, which averages more than 70 million viewers worldwide every month, first aired in 1999. Syndicated to more than 170 markets, Time magazine named it one of the greatest TV shows of all time two years ago.

    It is set in underwater city Bikini Bottom and follows the lives of sea sponge Spongebob and pals Squidward Tentacles, Patrick Star and pet snail Gary.

    Posh's episode is likely to air during an hour-long special this summer.

    Neither do I, but it still sounds promising. She'll be the second celebrity to voice a princess on SpongeBob.

    Yeah, but The Great Escape is coming in November. And the one with Victoria, according to the article, comes this summer.

    Before I realized you guys just didn't know she was one of the Spice Girls, I was gonna say "Wow, I feel really old."

    But what's with the "She isn't interested in becoming an actress, but voice-over work is something that appealed." Is that implying that voice-over isn't acting?! >:O
