Jennifer Lopez Headed To ‘How I Met Your Mother’

Jennifer Lopez – get ready to meet your “Mother.”

J.Lo will guest star in an upcoming episode of CBS’ “How I Met Your Mother,” the network announced on Wednesday.

The singer-actress will play Anita Appleby, a no-nonsense author of self-help books that teach women how to mold the perfect man through the power of denial.

But Anita appears to meet her match when she makes it her mission to “break” Barney (Neil Patrick Harris).

“We couldn’t be more excited about Jennifer Lopez joining us on ‘How I Met Your Mother,’” said series executive producer and co-creator Carter Bays. “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.”

The episode is scheduled to air in March.

It’s the latest TV gig for J.Lo, who took over the monologue on George Lopez’s “Lopez Tonight” earlier this month.

However, she isn’t the first songstress to grace the “HIMYM” set – fellow diva Carrie Underwood recently taped her own cameo, which is set to air on March 1.

In other “HIMYM” news, CBS announced on Tuesday the series – which also stars Josh Radnor, Jason Segel, Cobie Smulders and Alyson Hannigan – had been picked up for a sixth season to air in the fall.
