LOS ANGELES, Dec. 22 (UPI) -- Actress Brooke Shields has signed up for a guest spot on the U.S. sit-com "The Middle," starring Patricia Heaton, ABC announced.

Shields is to play the next-door nemesis of Heaton's character, Frankie, on the episode scheduled to air Jan. 6.

"Frankie fears that a confrontation with trashy neighbor Rita Glossner is at hand when Sue has a run-in with her sons," the network said in a release Monday.

Eden Sher plays Frankie's teen daughter, Sue.
