ABC has confirmed that Heather Locklear will guest star on Boston Legal during the May ratings sweep.

"We're thrilled to be working with Heather again. Her humor, sex appeal and mischief make her perfectly suited for Boston Legal," said series creator and executive producer David E. Kelley. "She's so cool and mysterious, even I can't tell if she did it."

Locklear will be playing Kelly Nolan, described by ABC as "a splashy, exotic murder defendant."
