Zoë Foster Blake ‘s CV is longer than most shopping lists. She’s been an author, columnist, editor, blogger, ambassador, and skin-care entrepreneur.

And now we can also add ‘actor’ to that crammed catalogue.

Yesterday the 36-year-old revealed she’ll be making a cameo in tonight’s episode of The Wrong Girl, the Channel 10 series based on her best-selling book.

Chatting about the appearance on The Project tonight, she revealed it won’t be her first time acting on the small screen — she was once a TV extra.

“Yeah. Professionally,” she told the panel.

“When I first moved to Sydney when I was, like, 17. [I was on]Home & AwayandBreakers.”

pparently she appeared in a Summer Day surf club scene, drinking a beverage. QUICK! Someone find that footage!

“When filming onThe Wrong Girlstarted, I joked with (writer) Judi McCrossin that I wanted to be an extra, as a fun little Easter egg for readers of the book,” Foster Blake wrote on Instagram last night.

“But I totally meant it and then aggressively followed it up with death threats etc. until they conceded.”

According toThe Wrong Girl Instagram announcement, the mother-of-one will be playing the role of “an enthusiastic intern”.

“I wanted to be an extra. I was happy to just be a person in the background, but they gave me a line or two,” Foster Blake told Carrie Bickmore onThe Project.

“I get to go out there tonight opposite Jess [Marais, who plays the series’ lead character] and just panic a bit.”

And while Foster Blake admits it will be a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it appearance, she won’t just be lurking in the background or passing through the frame.

In fact, they’ve actually tossed her a few lines, which – of course – has fans desperately speculating she’ll be acting alongside real-life hubby Hamish Blake, who plays a TV weatherman on the show.

“Hopefully it involves a lot of awkward flirting from Hamilton,” commented one follower.

Dear god, we hope so.

The Wrong Girl airs tonight at 8:30pm AEST on Channel 10.
