The following italicized article is from www.pagesix.com:Hollywood was abuzz yesterday with the news that Britney Spears was returning to TV to guest star as a dermatologist's assistant on How I Met Your Mother — she had been MIA from television since a 2006 Will & Grace cameo. Everyone was looking forward to seeing if Brit could pull it off — everyone, that is, except for Alicia Silverstone.
See, Alicia was set to play the dermatologist Brit would be assisting, but according to Pink is the New Blog, the Clueless star felt the pop star would overshadow her and has told producers she's outtie. Way harsh, Tai.
Stepping in last minute to replace Alicia is Scrubs’ Sarah Chalke, reports TV Guide. Sarah knows a thing or two about being a late-in-the-game substitute — she took over the role of Becky Connor on Roseanne for three seasons after the orig Becks, Lecy Goranson, left to attend college.
Brit’s ep is set to air toward the end of April and fans of the underrated show are praying this isn't the encounter that has Ted telling his kids, this is how I met your mother.
