Kevin Federline has been praised for his acting capabilities after he shot his cameo scenes for US teen drama One Tree Hill.

Britney Spears's ex-husband filmed his part as a frontman for a rock band in the show earlier this week, and his talents impressed programme creator Mark Schwan.

He said: "Kevin came in and (auditioned) and he did a great job. He really seemed like a sweet guy and I just felt that he would be great in that. I have to honestly say he was a good fit for the character.

"I don't know anything about the kid but he seemed very sweet and very sincere about working hard and embracing the opportunity. It's just about being good in the role."
