U2 Drummer, Kanye West, Will.i.am To Be On The Cleveland Show

U2 drummer Larry Mullen, Jr. will reportedly be a guest voice and appear more than once on the Fox television cartoon series The Cleveland Show.
Mullen apparently contacted the creators of the show — which is a Family Guy spin-off — through a mutual friend and asked to get involved, according to BBC News. He recorded his speaking parts from his own studio in Dublin, Ireland.
"He came in and we hung out for a couple of hours," Mike Henry, the voice of main character Cleveland Brown, told BBC News. "We just recorded him doing a couple of different parts and he was very funny."
Mullen will play a mobster in one episode and a lame Elvis impersonator (is there any other kind?) in another.
Other musicians appearing in The Cleveland Show's second season include Kanye West and Black Eyed Peas’ will.i.am. T-Pain has also apparently joined in the fun and will be a friend of Cleveland Jr. There's no word if he'll do the entire episode using Auto-Tune.
The Cleveland Show debuted on Fox in September.
U2 are now off the road, but will mount another leg of their U2 360 tour in North America this summer to support last year's No Line On The Horizon.
