“How I Met Your Mother” has added another guest star to its 100th-episode roster.
WWE wrestler and actress Stacy Keibler will appear in the milestone episode, “Girls vs. Suits,” CBS confirmed. Keibler will play a hot bartender and conquest for Neil Patrick Harris’ Barney. Harris shared details about the storyline with IGN.
‘Barney needs to nail the hot bartender that works at MacLaren’s,’ Harris told the site. ‘Oddly, he’s never banged a hot bartender before. He has a lot of conquests, but never a hot bartender.’
Things get complicated when Barney learns that Keibler’s character is not a fan of guys in suits, leading to a big musical number. Barney “has to choose between giving up suits to bang her or leaving her and keeping his suits – and he sings about it!” Harris said.
“Girls vs. Suits,” airing Jan. 11, will also feature guest spots from Rachel Bilson (“The O.C.”) and “Project Runway’s” Tim Gunn. Bilson will play a love interest for Ted (Josh Radnor), while Gunn serves as Barney’s personal tailor/fashion consultant. Keibler has appeared on “What About Brian,” “October Road” and “Samurai Girl.”
