Lindsay Lohan is in talks to star in three episodes of hit US show Ugly Betty, it has been reported.

The actress will play a fallen beauty queen who is forced to work at a fast food restaurant after falling behind with her rent.

A show insider told the New York Observer: "Betty tries to help Lindsay's character by getting her a job at Mode, the fashion magazine where she works on the show."

However, production is expected to cease on the programme after its writers joined the WGA strike earlier this week.

Stars Becki Newton, Ana Ortiz and Ashley Jensen joined a picket line on Thursday, while America Ferrera and Rebecca Romijn have also been spotted with placards.
