A few days ago, we reported that Melrose Place was seeking a madame.

Well, the upcoming primetime soap has found her - and she's gorgeous!

Kelly Carlson has joined the rebooted drama, securing the role of a high-powered Hollywood madame.

The CW confirms Carlson - who has appeared on CSI and Nip/Tuck, among other shows - will portray Wendi, who insiders report will cross paths with Stephanie Jacobsen's Lauren Yung, a medical student-turned-hooker.

On the original Melrose Place, Kristian Alfonso (Days of Our Lives) filled a similar role when Sydney was forced into high-end prostitution.

Ah, memories.
