Katie Holmes has thrown herself back into work with a guest appearance on U.S TV show Eli Stone that is sure to send male viewers' pulses racing.

Despite playing an attorney, the actress gets to squeeze into a sexy black skin-tight outfit for a steamy Chicago-style dance sequence.

And it seems that Katie impressed her co-stars with her raunchy display.

Co-star Natasha Henstridge told People magazine that the actress was,“super gracious, lovely, statuesque and gorgeous.”
