TRENDING: Levi Johnston to star in music video
Posted: July 24th, 2010 01:21 PM ET

Levi Johnston is set to star in a new music video.

(CNN) – Fresh off his re-engagement to Bristol Palin, the Associated Press reports that Levi Johnston is set to appear in an R&B music video in which he will play a young man driven away from his love interest by the young woman's mother.

Johnston, the fiancé of Bristol Palin, has agreed to appear in the video with Brittani Senser, an R&B artist.

"He's looking forward to doing it," Johnston's attorney told the Associated Press on Friday. "It will give him an opportunity to act a little bit in front of a camera. He's done a commercial before, but something like this is a little more involved."


Johnston and Bristol Palin announced their plans to become re-engaged earlier this month, shortly after Johnston issued a public apology to the Palin family, saying that some of his comments about the Palins in the wake of the 2008 presidential campaign are not totally true.

Bristol Palin is the daughter of former Alaska governor and vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Johnston is the father of Britol's son Tripp, born in the months after the 2008 presidential campaign.

The couple told Us Weekly that Sarah Palin did not know about their plans until after their engagement.

The Palin family issued this statement after learning of the engagement:

"Bristol, at 19, is now a young adult. As parents we obviously want what is best for our children, but Bristol is ultimately in charge of determining what is best for her and her beautiful son."
