News and gossip about Britney Spears

Alas, Britney Spears was not officially nominated for an Emmy for her guest roles on “How I Met Your Mother”.
Troubled pop-princess actually earned a few decent reviews for her performance as a receptionist in a doctor’s office, including the New York Daily News, which said Ч with no intent of snarkiness: “Spears proved she can act every bit as well as she can sing.” TV Guide critic Matt Roush said Britney was “harmless and (dare I say) kind of cute” in the role, but “Scrubs” star Sarah Chalke Ч who portrayed Britney’s boss Ч “walked away with the episode.” However, Chalke failed to make this Emmy Top 10 list too.
TOP 11 SEMIFINALISTS: GUEST ACTRESS IN A COMEDY SERIES:
Polly Bergen, “Desperate Housewives” (”Distant Past”)
Edie Falco, “30 Rock” (”Episode 210″)
