Hilary Duff is begging TV bosses to give her roles in hit shows The Office and 30 Rock, after signing a deal with the network behind them.

Duff recently signed a new one-year contract with NBC, which will result in her fronting a new show.

The deal will also lead to Duff making appearances in other programmes the network broadcasts.

And she has already registered her preference: "I would love to do something on The Office. 30 Rock is great - very funny. Many people have done lots of guest spots on it this season."

And when it comes to her own show, the former Lizzie MaGuire star wants to come up with something new and refreshing.

The 21-year-old tells MTV News, "I would like to do something funny... or I would like to kick ass or something."
