Britney Spears is in talks to star in and produce a new TV show.

The troubled singer has been meeting with TV executives to discuss possible projects following her recent successful appearances on hit US TV sitcom 'How I Met Your Mother'.

A source said: "Britney met Roy Bank, the president of Merv Griffin Entertainment, on Wednesday (28.05.08). It was a serious meeting and they spoke about various programme ideas - including a new music show."

The 26-year-old 'Toxic' star is attempting to get her career back on track following a difficult period, which included her shaving her head and being hospitalised for mental illness.

She received rave reviews for her performance as a ditsy receptionist in the sitcom, and has also reportedly been approached to star as Sandy in a new production of musical 'Grease' on Broadway.

Meanwhile, mother-of-two Britney will have to wait a little longer to regain full control of her life.

Los Angeles commissioner Reva Goetz ruled yesterday (29.05.08) that Britney's medical and psychological condition is still "somewhat tenuous" so she will remain under the conservatorship of her father Jamie.

After reviewing Britney's condition, Goetz said: "Her medical condition remains the same. Though there have been changes in her medication, I think in terms of her diagnosis, it's not complete."

The singer's condition will be reviewed again on June 17.

A trial has been set for July 31 to decide whether Jamie's conservatorship should be extended or dissolved.

Of course she should get rave reviews for her role as a ditsey person - she wasn't acting, that's her natural behavior, so she would do it well.
