Nick Lachey prepares for role of a lifetime on 'One Tree Hill'

Singer and reality TV star Nick Lachey will appear on the CW series "One Tree Hill" later this season. Lachey has been reported to be taking acting classes for his role as "Nick Duchey," a former reality star, boy band member, singer and boyfriend to Vanessa Manillo. Nick says that he studied the "method acting technique" to get into character.

"I wanted to live, eat and breathe Duchey," says Lache. "What makes a character like Nick Duchey tick? Is he a good singer? Do people buy his albums? How much could he get paid to appear at a chili cookoff?"

Lachey says that he is excited to appear in "Tree" but wonders who will be watching the show if he is in it.

"I love the show, and I watch it all the time, but if I am in the show and not at home watching the show, who will watch it? Whoa! I just blew my mind."
