Enjoy these clips of Britney Spears looking and acting relatively normal in her bit part on CBS’ “How I Met Your Mother.” Really, it’s the most sane and coherent she’s looked in over a year now — I guess pretending to be someone else is really grounding for Britney. I find that really only works for me if I’ve been pulled over for driving under the influence. When the officer asks for license and registration, I just chirp, “Sowwy, me no speaky Engrish!” Of course, it’s a lot more convincing if I pull back the skin around my eyes and then fold my hands and bow while I’m saying it, but I need my hands free in case I need to reach for his gun. Improvisation is really key to really developing the nuances of your character.

One more clip after the jump.
