The fast-rising model is set to appear as a radio DJ in the latest installment of the popular video game Grand Theft Auto.

A Grand Theft Auto (GTA) release is normally one of the video games calendar’s biggest events, and a tie-in with one of fashion’s biggest names can only add to the excitement. 21-year-old model Cara Delevingne unveiled the news Wednesday that she will be making an appearance in the game.

“I am so happy to announce that I will be a radio DJ in @rockstargames new GTA V coming soon! Tune in! Woop woop,” posted the model in the caption accompanying an Instagram selfie of the star in a Los Santos (a town in the fictional GTA universe) cap.

Previous GTA DJs (who provide comic patter as part of the games’ radio stations) have included Iggy Pop, hip-hop legend Funkmaster Flex and fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld.

Cara’s talents are getting increasing exposure. Earlier in August she was filmed singing backing vocals with her friend singer-songwriter Will Heard while on her Instagram account she’s also been releasing shots from the set of her new film Kids in Love.

Grand Theft Auto V will be released on September 17 2013.-
