Meg White's long-held wish comes true

The are set to guest star in 'The Simpsons'.

Duo Jack and Meg White will provide their voices and appear in an episode in the new season of the long-running cartoon.

Appearing alongside Homer, Bart and co has been a long-held desire of drummer Meg White.

“A guest appearance would be amazing,” Meg said in March 2003, adding, “I wouldn’t want to be in a Lisa episode. They’re kind of boring. Maybe a Homer one would be better.”

The band will join the likes of New Journalism pioneer and author Tom Wolfe and 24 star Kiefer Sutherland, who are also set to feature in the forthcoming season, Hollywood.com reports.
