Rumer Willis To Play Lesbian On '90210'

NEW YORK — There's a new kid in town at West Beverly Hills High _ and, naturally, she has famous parents.

A spokeswoman for the CW network, Kristen Hall, says Rumer Willis will appear next season on "90210."

Hall says the 20-year-old daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore will guest-star in one episode as "a punky, cute lesbian who isn't afraid to speak her mind." Willis' character, named Gia, will work at the school paper.

Her episode airs Sept. 15, a week after the teen drama's second-season premiere.

Willis, the eldest of three sisters, recently guest-starred on the NBC series "Medium." She was also on the big screen last year as a sorority misfit in the comedy "The House Bunny."

It's called ACTING.

90210 is still on TV?

[chuckinCMH]

She ROCKED on Medium - I watched it all the way through before reliazing who she was, but was thinking "whoever this new girl is, she's doing a lot with a tiny role..."

Not a huge "Demi as actress" fan, though Bruce still has wit and appeal - so it's nice to know the girl has chops of her own.

[hollybork]

Not a classic beauty. Features are too small for her face, and are her eyes two different colors?

[Green-Zanto]

And you're what, a super model?

[AllenFromAtlanta]

She has a wee bit of a Marilyn Manson thing going on.

Type casting.

[samsnee]

Have we seen her and Bruce Willis in the same room? How do we know this isn't all a ruse so he has a fallback plan?

[shirleyfeeney]

i still can't believe that she has bruce willis and demi moore's genes in her...somewhere...

[wrenchdevil]

pre facework Demi, and Bruce, I can see that.

[amoosefloats]

she looks like eugene the jeep on the old popeye cartoons maybe she could be in a remake of popeye?

[zenwhenicanbe2]

BWhaaahahahahaha

[littlepuffycloud]

She was pretty funny and really cute in 'House Bunny'. If I still had teens in the house and watched 90210, I'd give her a chance to try out her acting chops.

damnit HuffPost this is the second time you've misled me with your titles

First "Baldwin leaving TV show" I freaked out and thought it was Alec leaving 30Rock...turned out to be Stephen leaving "I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here"

...and now "Lesbian Rumer" turns out to be "Rumer playing a lesbian role on 90210"

shameeeeeee HuffPost, SHAME!!! lol

There is something to be said for looking different. She has her own beauty.

[DeeW]

why is everyone going on about her looks? These are probably the same people who think people in Hollywood are too shallow ... haha.

Anyway, judge her on her acting ability. I saw her on Medium and she was pretty good.

[SuesW]

lol @ to play a lesbian. good grief. What about all those actresses playing straight people - that never makes a headline. Cracks me up.

[lionzion]

um,can someone remind me of that movie that starred Cher in the 80's?..oh yeah!.."Face"

[yellowdoggie]

That's just mean! And the movie was "Mask."

[wrenchdevil]

this coming from someone that has MJ as their avatar..fail.
