The former Girls Aloud singer has always longed to break into the world of film and now it looks like her dreams have finally come true as she's landed a "little" role in a blockbuster.

Taking to her Twitter account, the 31-year-old beauty uploaded a photograph of her private dressing room, with a sign of her name, alongside the caption: "My quarters! Swing by for a tea."

She then followed it up with the status: "I'm doing a little part in a film. thank you everyone today (sic)," after she was bombarded with questions from eagle-eyed intrigued fans.

Nadine's new mystery role comes seven years after she first mentioned her desire to carve out an acting career.

The brunette beauty - who now lives in Los Angeles with her partner Jason Bell and their two-year-old daughter Anaiya - said in 2009: "I'm really excited about it but we'll have to see what happens. Girls Aloud are going to have to work around me a bit because my home isn't in London. I love being in LA and don't feel the need to come back to the UK so much."

Although she's now floating about on the movie scene, Nadine - who is planning to move back to the UK - is still very much focused on her music as she recently signed a new record deal with Warner Music in a bid to make a big comeback next year.

A source said recently: Nadine is incredibly focused. She's selling her LA restaurant and laying roots in the UK.

"She's still a household name and wants to cash in on her singing abilities rather than turn to reality TV."
