R&B star Ne-Yo is set to play an “elegant hit man” in an upcoming episode of hit crime drama ‘CSI: NY’. The singer has already enjoyed a number of small movie roles, including appearances in 2006’s ‘Save the Last Dance 2’ and ‘Stomp the Yard’ in 2007.
And now he’s set to put his acting skills to the test on the small screen with a stylish role in the popular show. A representative for the series tells, “Ne-Yo will be playing a professional hitman who doesn’t fit the usual image of a hired killer.
This guy carries himself with elegant style but a violent efficiency.” Previous guest stars to appear in ‘CSI: NY’ include Kim Kardashian, Kid Rock, Ashlee Simpson and her husband Pete Wentz.
