According to the Oxford English Dictionary, a cameo roll was originally a kind of small French pudding, commonly served with raspberry sauce and walnuts. In recent years, the term has come to mean a short appearance by someone recognisable, i.e. an actor/actress who played the role previously in the original (and usually better) version of the show, hence the changing of the spelling.
