Troubled songstress Britney Spears apparently acquitted herself nicely on popular sitcom How I Met Your Mother, but did you know that troubled singer George Michael has a recurring role as himself on decidedly less popular legal dramedy Eli Stone? (We think it's a dramedy, anyway.) It's true! According to AfterElton, he is quite good in an expanded part on an episode airing tomorrow, and there are no jokes about soliciting sex in public toilets. So in 2028 Larry Craig might be able to make a mildly self-effacing but unembarrassing appearance on CSI: Robot Spice Mines or something. [AfterElton]
