Britney Spears appears to be on the right track, so what better way to celebrate than by giving back?

How about American Idol? But if stepping back on stage for some song and dance with the wannabe Idols is too much for Ms. Brit right now, she ought to consider making an appearance at Idol Gives Back, the star-studded fundraiser on April 9.

She wouldn’t even have to perform. Just check out her numbers from her guest shot on How I Met Your Mother. She helped bump viewership to 10.62 million people!

Already on the bill for Idol Gives Back, which raises money for several children's charities, are Bono, Brad Pitt, Reese Witherspoon, Miley Cyrus, Mariah Carey, Robin Williams, Celine Dion, Annie Lennox, Fantasia, Carrie Underwood and Fergie, among many others.

Sure sounds better than a night of dodging the paparazzi through the streets of Hollywood.
