FIRST PEEK: Britney Spears’ Return to How I Met Your Mother
It wasn’t tough for Britney Spears to decide to reprise her role as ditzy receptionist Abby on CBS’ How I Met Your Mother.
“I had such a great experience the last time I was on the show that I couldn’t wait to come back,” the singer said in a statement Monday. “I was really looking forward to working with this cast and crew again.
“Everyone was so nice,” she added. “Abby is going to have a lot of fun!”
This time around, Spears’ lovable but ditzy Abby no longer pines for Ted (Josh Radnor). She falls for Barney (Neil Patrick Harris).
According to a CBS release, the “couple” — who don matching V-neck baby blue sweaters — go to the show’s local hangout bar to “flaunt their new relationship in Ted’s face.”
