LeAnn Rimes: ‘I Would Love To Be On ‘Gossip Girl!’’

Country star LeAnn Rimes has caught the acting bug – and she’s ready to bring it from Nashville to the Upper East Side.

“I would love to be on ‘Gossip Girl!’” she told OK! magazine, explaining that she’s looking for film and television roles. “Every video I do, I think I do more and more acting in them, which I think is kind of setting the stage to do more and more film.”

And “Gossip Girl” would be her first pick, thanks to one of the show’s young stars.

“My husband is obsessed with Blake Lively,” she admitted. “She’s such a doll. I think she’s such a cute little girl and the actors are great and the storylines are really good.”

In her personal life, LeAnn is hoping for a little girl or boy of her own, telling the mag that she and husband Dean are trying for a baby.

“We’ll start with one,” she said. “I was an only child so I’m totally okay with one. My mom always said, ‘You think you’re in love with someone but you don’t really realize how deep it can be until you have kids.’ It’s going to be interesting to have that experience with him.”

“I’m totally terrified of childbirth!” she continued. “I’m excited to see how I’ll deal with that.”

One thing LeAnn’s not scared of is speaking out on her struggles with psoriasis, which she did for the first time this week.

She was diagnosed with the chronic autoimmune disease at the age of 2.

“It just feels liberating to talk about it,” she said. “I think it was important to put a face with the disease.”

She says the reaction to her just-launched “Stop Hiding. Start Living” campaign for the National Psoriasis Foundation has been nothing but positive.

“It’s been amazing. Every time I talk about it, either the interviewer or somebody in their family has it,” she said. “People with psoriasis feel isolated and just talking about it myself, that isolation I felt fades away a little bit because I realize how many people deal with this disease.”
