*Nsync on "The Simpsons"

Get ready to tune into Fox, *Nsync fans.

The upcoming February sweeps -- the period when the TV networks load their schedules with specials to increase ratings and hopefully jack up the rates they charge to advertisers -- will see Fox's long-running animated series "The Simpsons" play host to guest stars *Nsync, Frankie Muniz ("Malcolm In The Middle"), Kelsey Grammer ("Frasier"), Julia Louis Dreyfus ("Seinfeld") and tennis stars Andre Agassi, Pete Sampras, Venus and Serena Williams, zap2it.com reports.

And, as AllPop previously reported, *Nsync's Lance, J.C., Chris, Joey and Justin will play themselves on the Feb. 25 episode of "The Simpsons". The episode will be titled "New Kids On The Blecch" and will find Bart, Milhouse, Ralph and Nelson recruited by boy-band creator L.T. Smash.

Meanwhile, the tennis stars will lend their voices to "Tennis The Menace" on Feb. 11, while Kelsey will return as Sideshow Bob on Feb. 18 in "Day Of The Jacknapes".

Frankie, who stars on Fox's "Malcolm In Ihe Middle" as a boy genius, will play a cartoon boy genius whom Lisa Simpson has a crush on.
