Hot Number From Down Under Joins 'OITNB' as Lesbian Love Interest

Smoking-hot Australian presenter Ruby Rose has just signed onto the cast of the hit Netflix series, "Orange Is the New Black" as a lesbian "lust object."

Pink News reports that the genderfluid DJ will play Stella Carlin, a new love interest that drives a wedge between old flames Piper (Taylor Schilling) and Alex (Laura Prepon). According to Elle Magazine, she will serve as the "lust object" for the two inmates when the show returns.

If anyone's going to be the meat in that hottie sandwich, this is the right person for the job! The sultry Rose released the short film "Break Free" in July 2014 (see below) that explores her perception of non-traditional gender identities.

In the five-minute video set to Butterfly Boucher's "It Pulls Me Under," Rose presents herself first as a beautiful woman, then slowly transitions into a beautiful man.

The UK Guardian reports that the openly gay Rose revealed to them that she has moved between male and female identities throughout her life -- changes she calls "reincarnations." She told the Guardian that she had started binding her chest as young as six years old, and that if she had to choose a gender, "it would be a boy, a guy."

"I think at this stage I will stay a woman but... who knows," she said. "I'm so comfortable right now I feel wonderful about it, but I also fluctuate a lot."

Rose was born in Australia to a single mother, grew up mostly in Melbourne and found fame first as a child model and then as an MTV VJ, while in her teens. Now she is set to reach a much wider audience on this hit show that deals with issues of race, class and privilege through the view of the fictional Litchfield federal correctional institution.

On her Facebook page, Rose said she was "exploding with joy over here!"

We wonder which crew member will leave her husband for this hottie?
