britney & mary kate not in top 10 for emmy

Good thing Britney Spears gets to spend more time with her boys these days because she won’t be spending any time with TV’s Golden Girl soon. Despite the fact that her appearance in the “Ten Sessions” episode of “How I Met Your Mother” was submitted for Emmy consideration, she’s not on the Top 10 list of semifinalists.
Too bad. Britney Spears actually earned a few decent reviews for her performance as a receptionist in a doctor’s office, including the New York Daily News, which said — with no intent of snarkiness: “Spears proved she can act every bit as well as she can sing.” TV Guide critic Matt Roush said Britney was “harmless and kind of cute” in the role, but “Scrubs” star Sarah Chalke — who portrayed Britney’s boss — “walked away with the episode.” However, Chalke failed to make this Emmy Top 10 list too.
Also missing from the lineup: Mary-Kate Olsen, who played a pot-pushing Bible-thumper on “Weeds.” Good thing Lindsay Lohan decided not to bother entering her name for her guest turn on “Ugly Betty.”
