Foxes to Guest Star, Perform on 'Doctor Who'

Not since an obscure Beatles performance found its way onto a second season episode has Doctor Who really trafficked in the popular music of its day. Well, until now, anyway...

Foxes, the singer who had an international hit as the featured artist on Zedd's "Clarity," will be appearing on the latest season of Doctor Who, guest-starring on the show and performing a track from her latest album, Glorious.

"I can't believe I'm actually going to be in an episode of Doctor Who! Especially as it all came about from a chance meeting," Foxes said in a statement. "I was playing a gig and got chatting to the show's production team who'd been watching my performance. I was telling them how much I loved Doctor Who and next thing they invited me to be on it. I couldn't think of a better place to make my acting debut than on one of the UK's most iconic shows!"

Steven Moffat, lead writer and executive producer on the series, added: "We are completely thrilled that the amazingly talented Foxes is joining us on board ... well, you'll see. Let's just say, the Doctor is finally catching up on his phone calls."

Doctor Who returns this August with Peter Capaldi taking over the TARDIS from Matt Smith as the Twelfth Doctor. In short, it's one thing worth getting seriously stoked about this summer, Foxes or no Foxes.
