Washington, 24 March 2008 (By Mary Morningstar) -- Britney Spears made a guest appearance on the March 24 episode of 'How I Met Your Mother.' The CBS sitcom stars Neil Patrick Harris, Josh Radnor, Jason Segal and Alyson Hannigan.

E! Online reports that Alicia Silverstone was scheduled to appear in the same episode as Britney Spears, but cancelled after learning about Britney Spears' guest spot.

Josh Radnor told People magazine, "It pains me to report that on the first day of the shoot, Britney knew her lines better than I knew mine. She's been great to work with."

People also reports that Britney Spears played the role of a dermatologist's receptionist, who falls for Josh Radnor's character, Ted.
