Britney Spears spent last week filming scenes for her cameo in the March 24 episode of How I Met Your Mother, wrapping everything up on Wednesday. She'll play a receptionist in a dermatologist's office that falls for Ted (Josh Radnor).

"Working at How I Met Your Mother has been so terrific," Spears said in a statement Thursday. "Everyone, including the cast, the crew and the producers, has been wonderful and Abby is such a fun girl to play. I'm having a blast!"

"On the first day of the shoot," Radnor told People.com, "Britney knew her lines better than I knew mine. She's been great to work with."

How I Met Your Mother has its post-strike premier tonight at 8 p.m. EST on ABC. As for what Spears has been up to, she's currently under the conservatorship of her father, James, and battling Kevin Federline for the custody of their two kids, Jayden James, 1, and Sean Preston, 2.
