Christina Milian has been cast as Magenta for Fox’s revival of “The Rocky Horror Picture Show.”

The Fox reimagining follows sweethearts Janet and Brad, who stumble upon Dr. Frank-N-Furter’s bizarre abode. The sexually ambiguous, flirtatious alien mad-scientist is holding an annual, Transylvanian science convention to showcase the birth of Rocky Horror — a fit, attractive man created solely to fulfill Frank’s desires.

Magenta and Riff Raff are Dr. Frank-N-Furter’s faithful servants.
