Well, that didn’t take long at all, did it? Ryan Lochte, winner of five medals at the 2012 London Olympics, will be appearing on an upcoming episode of The CW’s 90210. Recently Lochte told Matt Lauer on Today that he’d be interested in appearing on The Bachelor or Dancing with the Stars – and one of those shows could still be in his future. But it appears The CW has nabbed the Olympic medalist for his TV acting debut.
The CW announced he’ll have a cameo as “a guest at a resort where Naomi and Max are staying to strengthen their relationship.” The episode will air on Monday, October 29, 2012 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on The CW.
“When we found out Ryan Lochte was going to be in town and might appear on 90210, we felt like we’d won a gold medal! Team USA are all-stars in our book, and we’re so excited he’s making an appearance on the show. We only wish the episode was a surf event so we could have gotten him in the water, but he deserves a little rest on dry land,” said Executive Producers Patti Carr and Lara Olsen.
