If you can figure out a way to set your DVR for next season's TV shows, do it. STAT. Naomi Campbell is going the cast of American Horror Story: Hotel, and you won't want to to miss it. The model is joining the cast as a fashion editor who, if we had to guess, won't check out.

Per TV Line, Campbell's role covers a few episodes and begins shooting next week. The plot goes that her fashion critiques aren't received well and the resulting comeuppance isn't going to be pretty. "It's a little bloodier and grislier than anything that we've done before. It's straight horror this year," executive producer Ryan Murphy said.
Most recently, the world's seen Campbell on the small screen in Empire (fun facts: she picked her character's wardrobe herself and Diane von Furstenberg was integral in her accepting the role). While it might feel like the supermodel is pursuing acting now more than ever, she's actually got a long list of credits to her name.
