LONDON – Rebecca Loos, famed for her alleged affair with England captain David Beckham, has landed her first acting role playing a sports psychologist helping players with their personal problems in Sky One's football drama 'Dream Team'.

Loos, who more recently came under fire for masturbating a pig on Five's reality show, 'The Farm', will start filming the series this month. Sky chiefs plan to broadcast the series from February next year in a primetime Sunday night slot. Loos will play regular character, Naomi, a 26-year-old sports psychologist.

She said of the role: "It's the perfect role for me simply because I have worked with footballers before. Naomi is a football psychologist, so I am playing someone who assists football players with their mental preparation and helps sort out their personal off-pitch problems.

"I am going to research my role and will be speaking to some of my football contacts to get some inside advice."

Loos is also set to star in Channel 4 reality TV show 'Extreme Health Farm', where she will road test the latest exotic health regimes. Loos has reportedly been paid £20,000 a week to star in the show, which will air later this year.
