Sarah McLachlan has appeared in an episode of the satirical animated sitcom South Park as a nurse caring for 'babies on crack'.

The Canadian ballad singer, 43, appeared on Stan and Kyle's TV at the start of the brand new episode.

'Oh no it's that super-sad Sarah McLachlan commercial, look away,' yells Kyle as pictures of drug-addled babies flash on the screen.

'Hello I'm Sarah McLachlan. I was famous for two months,' says the character as she cradles a child. The boys then start the Crack Baby Athletic Association where they earn money by making cocaine-addicted babies play sports.

Later in the episode the protagonists are shocked to learn that Slash, the British frontman from Guns and Roses, is a fictional character much like Santa.

'Slash is not real. He's based on a fable of a Dutch saint named VunterSlash,' they said brandishing an old storybook with the rocker's image on the pages.
