There are worse things in the world than being known as Mrs. Channing Tatum.
But Jenna Dewan will have a chance to establish her own identity this fall, as she guest stars on one of the most eagerly-anticipated shows of the new television season.
The actress has been cast on Melrose Place. Her character will be a movie studio executive that crushes on Jonah, played by Michael Rady.
Professionally, Dewan is best known for her role in Step Up. She also, aptly, appeared in The Hot Chick.
No matter how she fares on Melrose Place, Jenna won’t be the worst actress on set. Ashlee Simpson-Wentz appears regularly on the series.
