Dita Von Teese: CSI Cameo, Birthday in Bed

Dita Von Teese will guest star on an episode of CSI early 2011!

The burlesque beauty will play a classic Hollywood femme fatale in a throwback to “the glory days of L.A. film noir,” exec producer Carol Mendelsohn tells EW. “Her character is absolutely unlike what she seems. Prepare to be tantalized and tormented.”

She will also play a love interest for Eric Szmanda‘s character (Eric and Dita are real-life friends as well).

Today’s Dita‘s 38th birthday, but unfortunately she’s sick. “In bed with the flu on my birthday☹” she wrote on Twitter. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DITA. And feel better!!!
