LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

She already has a Grammy under her belt. But is Britney about to add an Emmy to her mantle?

The pop star-turned-sitcom guest star doesn’t have the golden statue in her hands just yet, but she’s one step closer.

Brit has been included on the official ballot as a possible nominee to receive an Emmy Award for her two guest appearances on CBS’s “How I Met Your Mother,” OK! Magazine reports.

Brit is reportedly included as one of 41 actresses, including Sarah Silverman for “Monk,” Mary-Kate Olsen for “Weeds,” Alyssa Milano for “My Name is Earl” and “Scrubs” star Sarah Chalke for guest-starring as Britney’s boss on “How I Met Your Mother.”

The list of 41 actresses will be whittled to a short list of final nominees before the Emmy Awards ceremony in September.
