JWoww is ready to prove she’s more than just a reality star: as was to be expected, the MTV “Jersey Shore” star is moving on to greener pastures, having just landed a role on the popular ABC soap opera “One Life to Live.”

The soap returns online on April 29.

“JWoww will play Nikki, a bartender hired at the trendy nightclub Shelter, who can mix an Alabama Slammer as well as she can flirt with the customers,” TV Guide writes.

“Club owner Blair Cramer (Kassie DePaiva) knows that it's best to keep an eye on Nikki, who is the nightclub's newest barmaid, so things don't get out of control,” adds the same media outlet.

Though JWoww has done several cameos before, mostly in comedies, this is her first major role, aside from the persona she brings to life on the MTV show and its spinoff, which also stars her real-life BFF Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi.
