Christie Brinkley
In one of the funniest guest spots on the entire show, the supermodel stars in the show as Jerry Gergich's wife, Gayle. Since Jerry is frequently teased and berated by his fellow Parks and Rec teammates during work hours, they are shocked when they discover that his wife is breathtakingly stunning and very much in love with Jerry.
Michelle Obama
In another spectacular cameo from the world of politics, Leslie is overwhelmed when she meets former First Lady Michelle Obama while considering taking a job in Chicago, and the pair chat about national parks. Michelle looks incredible in her cameo and we were fangirling while watching just as much as Leslie!
Werner Herzog
In an excellent season seven cameo, Werner plays the creepy owner of a haunted house that April and Andy decide to buy after their relationship becomes too ordinary.
Jon Hamm
Jon makes cameo appearances in season six and seven of the hit show as Ed, who works for the council who is very, very bad at his job. As Leslie says: "You're a nice guy, but you're the most incompetent person I've ever worked with, and that includes Terry."
