5 New Girl Celebrity Cameos You Won’t Believe Were There
The question is, how in the world the show had such a budget to afford them all?
New Girl is certainly one of those underrated sitcoms that you won't find interesting until you accidentally stumble upon an episode. After that, you won't be able to turn it off. Funny, lighthearted, and sometimes too realistically awkward, New Girl captured the hearts of fans and became a phenomenon.
So much so, in fact, that even celebrities couldn't resist dropping by for an episode or two. Here are the top 5 most unexpected celebrity cameos on New Girl that are totally worth watching.
Dylan O'Brien
The star of another very popular TV show at the time, Teen Wolf, appeared on New Girl in the role of The Guy. If you think The Guy sounds a bit generic, that's because it is: young Jess meets The Guy at her prom and almost loses her virginity to him, but gets stuck in a tiny children's castle.
Megan Fox
The actress did not only have a cameo in the series, but she actually had a real character with a short, but very well thought out storyline. She played Reagan, a very professional businesswoman who took Jess' room for a while while she was on jury duty and then ended up dating Nick.
Jamie Lee Curtis
Of course, there is no one in the world who could have played Jess' mother better than Jamie Lee Curtis. They may not look too much alike, but one look at the mother would explain a lot about her daughter's awkward self. The casting choice for this role was just perfect.
Gordon Ramsay
There is no better choice of guest star for the Valentine's Day episode than Gordon Ramsay himself. You might not think of him as the most supportive companion for such a romantic holiday, but for Jess he becomes the best date she could ever dream of. An unconventional choice, but a great one nonetheless.
Prince
There is no way in the world that any sitcom could afford to hire Prince for a cameo, especially since the artist is known to turn down all requests. But New Girl didn't even have to try, because Prince himself was such a fan of the show that he wanted to come over and join the production.
