Troubled pop star Britney Spears will make an appearance on the CBS show "How I Met Your Mother," guest-starring in the March 24 episode of the CBS series. She will portray a receptionist in a
dermatologist's office who becomes smitten with one of the regular stars. Craig Thomas, the show's creator, says Spears attended a table reading with the cast on Monday, and that her scenes will be
filmed later this week.
He adds that representatives for Spears approached CBS about "Mother" because "she was looking for a small part on a funny show." Spears played a character on
a 2006 episode of "Will and Grace" and has also hosted "Saturday Night Live." The show returns with all-new episodes new week following the writers strike.
Spears is currently under
the conservatorship of her father, James, following her bizarre behavior and two hospitalizations, while locked in a custody battle with ex-husband Kevin Federline over their two sons.
