Jennifer Lopez to Cameo on 'How I Met Your Mother' and 'Glee'

Jennifer Lopez will attempt to "break" prime-time's most infamous womanizer, Barney (Neil Patrick Harris), when she guest-stars on "How I Met Your Mother" this season. Lopez, who tried her hand as a late-night host during "Lopez Tonight" last week, seems to be making a habit of appearing on the small screen.

According to a press release, Lopez will play a self-help author, Anita Appleby, who writes about the ways "to train men into relationship machines through the power of denial." After she learns about Barney's treatment towards women from Robin (Cobie Smulders), Appleby wants to tame him.

"We couldn't be more excited about Jennifer Lopez joining us on 'How I Met Your Mother,' " executive producer and co-creator Carter Bays said of the latest celebrity cameo on his hit CBS comedy. "We're looking forward to a week of revealing outfits and sexy dance moves the likes of which this show hasn't seen since Regis Philbin guest-starred."

Lopez is also rumored to be making a guest appearance on "Glee." According to reports, the show's producers are trying to get her on the show to play a cafeteria worker. "Discussions are ongoing and we haven't gotten into the episode(s) [Lopez would] be appearing in," "Glee" executive producer Brad Falchuk told E! Online.

With all this self promotion, we have to wonder what's going on with Jenny's music career. Her new album, Love?, was originally scheduled to come out in January, but it's since been pushed back to April. Her first single "Louboutins" was released to mixed reviews while the electro beat of "Everybody's Girl" is sure to be a club hit.

We can't wait for the lp, but what do you think about her appearance on "How I Met Your Mother?" Can Jlo tame a womanizer? We think yes! (MTVNews)
