Sarah Palin to star in 'Desperate Housewives'?

New York, Nov 13 : 'Desperate Housewives' creators are reportedly keen to offer Alaska governor Sarah Palin a part in the show.

Hollywood p.r. man Hal Lifson, who's not involved with the show, said series creator Marc Cherry is "very hot to trot to have her appear on the season-five finale."

"Marc is highly enamoured of Sarah and sees her as the ultimate guest star [playing] a similar version of herself," the New York Post quoted Lifson, as saying.

"The idea has gone over surprisingly well with execs at Disney, who see it as a blockbuster based on Sarah's huge ratings on 'Saturday Night Live,' " Lifson added.

Cherry declined to comment and an ABC rep said, "There's no truth to it."
