Michael Phelps may have another career going: Acting.
Entourage's
Kevin Connolly said the 23-year-old Olympian was a hit while filming
a guest spot on the HBO series.
"Oh, it was fantastic," he told Usmagazine.com Monday at the William Rast fashion show in NYC.
Phelps plays himself on the upcoming episode -- and gives Connolly's character a hard time after bumping into him at a crosswalk in NYC.
Connolly told Us it was by chance that Phelps landed the gig.
"It was a surprise - it wasnt planned," he told Us. "He was shooting, maybe,
Good Morning America, so we invited him to come down and pop in."
So is he natural?
"He sure is," Connolly added.
Good thing: Phelps
is hosting the season premiere of NBC's
Saturday Night Live on September 13.
"I just want to put him in some funny wigs,"
SNL castmember Kristen Wiig told Us at a party for her film
Ghost Town at the Toronto Film Festival over the weekend. "The thought of him with wigs on is funny to me."
