After Britney Spears helped CBS’ How I Met Your Mother earn its highest ratings of all time, Tina Fey says she wouldn’t mind if the pop singer popped up on her NBC sitcom 30 Rock.

“We would love to work with Britney,” Fey, 37, told reporters yesterday in a conference call. “I’ve worked with her twice on Saturday Night Live and she was very professional and nice.” (See Spears' on-set looks here.)

Fey also has her eyes set on another A-lister: Oprah Winfrey.

“I want Oprah to play my best friend,” Fey said. “I want to spend time with Oprah, and I don’t know what I need to do to make it happen.”

30 Rock returns April 10 with new episodes following the writers' strike.

Getting back to work wasn’t easy, Fey said.

“The strike was a bit like the maternity leave that I didn’t have, except for my duties on the union line,” said Fey, who has a daughter Alice, 2.

“Now my daughter is old enough to say, ‘You don’t go to work, you stay inside.’ That breaks my heart.”
