Britney Nominated for an Emmy

This does not feel right to be blogging about, since it’s obviously the sign that the end of the word is upon us. . . Britney Spears has been nominated for an Emmy. The list hasn’t been trimmed of the fat yet (that’s in September), but Brit does have a place on the list! It’s for her How I Met Your Mother appearances, FYI. OK! Mag spilled on the nomination:

For her double-shot guest appearance as Abby on CBS hit How I Met Your Mother, Brit-Brit is one of 41 actresses on the official ballot released by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences to its voters. Keep in mind, this is the list that is whittled down to the final nominees for the September ceremony.

Other notable names also up for Academy consideration are Sarah Silverman for her guest shot on Monk; Mary-Kate Olsen, who won over many Weeds fans during her extended run as a pot-dealing Christian on the Showtime hit; Alyssa Milano for her role as Billie on My Name is Earl; and Scrubs star Sarah Chalke, who is on the ballot for guest-starring as Brit’s boss on How I Met Your Mother.

Give me a neurotic Olsen twin any day, or even Sarah Chalke, queen of the Wedgie Commercials. Just not Britney– I feel like it would still be giving her false hope.
