Television icon Mary Tyler Moore guest star on NBC’s Lipstick Jungle. She will play Wendy Healy’s (Brooke Shields) mother Joyce, a retired high-powered executive. Joyce will force Wendy to question whether or not she can have it all: the successful career and the happy family. A trailblazer for working women back int he 1970s, Joyce’s concerns for Wendy leave her overachieving daughter in a tailspin.
Of the guest starring role, Moore has commented, “I’m fortunate to have had a front row seat to the evolution of working women on television. It’s been great fun to watch the strong female characters of Lipstick Jungle go at it week after week. I absolutely adore Brooke and I’m delighted to be a part of a show which is so well written.”
Brooke Shields feels lucky to have Moore on her show, which goes into its second season this fall: “I am excited and extremely honored to have an actress of Mary Tyler Moore’s stature and talent join our show.” Lipstick Jungle premieres Wednesday September 24th at 10-11 p.m. ET.
