Nancy Pelosi to Guest Star on 30 ROCK Series Finale

The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi will appear on the one-hour 30 Rock series finale. Tina Fey's universally acclaimed comedy is set to conclude its run on Jan. 31.

The Washington Post first reported the news earlier today; Pelosi seemed gung-ho on her guest-starring role, saying: "I would do almost anything Tina Fey asks me to do."

The political icon, who was the first woman elected as Speaker of the House in 2006, is expected to portray herself - like other political guest stars, including Al Gore and Condoleezza Rice. Her comedic foray on 30 ROCK's finale will mark Pelosi's scripted debut. She first appeared in an episode of Top Chef in 2010.

The critically acclaimed and multiple award-winning comedy series "30 Rock" is told through the comedic voice of Emmy and two-time Golden Globe winner Tina Fey as variety show producer Liz Lemon. The series also features two-time Emmy and three-time Golden Globe winner Alec Baldwin as top network executive Jack Donaghy and Emmy nominee Tracy Morgan as Tracy Jordan, the unpredictable star of Lemon's variety show, "TGS with Tracy Jordan." Lemon constantly has her hands full, juggling corporate interference from Donaghy and off-the-handle star antics from Jordan, all while attempting to salvage her own personal life.

Also rounding out the cast are three-time Emmy nominee Jane Krakowski as Jenna Maroney, the co-star of "TGS"; Scott Adsit as the variety show's producer Pete Hornberger; Emmy nominee Jack McBrayer as Kenneth, the over-eager and effortlessly endearing NBC page; Judah Friedlander as Frank, the sardonic slacker on the writing staff; and Keith Powell as Toofer, the sophisticated yet sarcastic, Harvard-alum writer.
