Enrique Iglesias is to guest star on CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother.

Iglesias will play a holiday romance interest in at least two episodes of the show next season, according to TV Guide.

"The character, Gael, is exactly the guy you don't want your ex-girlfriend hooking up with next: in addition to being a sexy, guitar-playing surfer/massage therapist, the guy looks a lot like Enrique Iglesias," producer Craig Thomas told the magazine.
