Airing during the spring premiere on April 10, Glee will cover the indie smash hit by Gotye, “Somebody That I Used to Know.” The infectious single from Belgium-Australian singer-songwriter will be covered by Blaine and his brother, played by Matt Bomer. The song has been transformed from a heartbreak-ridden duet to an ode to a classic sibling rivalry between the two brothers.

Good luck, and I can’t wait to read through all your questions!

Lima and McKinley will be seeing some new faces in the next few weeks! It seems as though Glee and LiLo has buried the hatchet, at least for now. TV Line is reporting that Lindsay Lohan will appear in one of the last episodes of the season as herself, specifically as a judge at Nationals. The role is still in negotiations, but if everything goes well, we will be seeing the former Parent Trap actress on our television screens in a matter of weeks! This appearance would be a comeback for Lohan who has had a troubling few years with minimal roles.

Furthermore, another celebrity will be visiting Lima! TV Line also reported that Whoopi Goldberg will be cast in multi-episode arc.

Goldberg will portray Carmen Tibideaux, a theatrical professional and a professor at NYADA who travels to Ohio to preside over Kurt and Rachel’s auditions. It seems as though she will be around for three episodes beginning May first, according to Michael Ausiello.

What’re your thoughts on the new guest stars?

We’ve already met Rachel’s dads, Sam’s parents, Blaine’s brother, and Santana’s mother. Keeping with this season’s theme of family introductions, Glee has cast former Melrose Place actor Thomas Calabro as Puck’s estranged father.

The actor is set to star in episode 18, but no further details have been revealed as to the reason behind his sudden appearance.

What do you think could be the cause of a Puckerman family reunion?

Glee stars Chris Colfer, Jane Lynch, Matthew Morrison, and Matt Bomer will be appearing in the controversial, and star-studded, play 8, Saturday, March 3. Written by Oscar-winning screenwriter Dustin Lance Black and directed by Rob Reiner, the play is an interpretation of the legal battles surrounding Proposition 8 in California, a 2008 ballot proposition that stated that “only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California”, and was overturned in August 2010.

The play, which draws primarily from the court transcripts of the 2010 trial, was performed in New York City for a one-night fundraiser for AFER (American Foundation for Equal Rights) back in September of 2010. The play will be performed this Saturday as a “benefit reading for marriage equality” at the Wilshire Ebell Theater, and will be live-streamed both on Youtube and on AFER.org.

Uncover the truth about marriage for gay and lesbian Americans. George Clooney, Martin Sheen and Jane Lynch join an all-star cast for a one-night-only benefit reading of “8,” the new play by Academy-award winning screenwriter Dustin Lance Black (Milk, J. Edgar) that chronicles the landmark federal trial of California’s Prop. 8 using the actual court transcripts and first-hand interviews.

Two weeks ago I was able to cover the Belvedere (RED) Pre-Grammy for our friends at Starry Constellation Magazine. While there, I had the pleasure of talking to Glee‘s very own Irish Lucky Charm Damian McGinty.

Damian was very excited as he discussed his character’s love-triangle storyline and solo performance of Michael Buble’s “Home” in the episode “Heart.” Being able to perform “Home” was particularly meaningful to Damian because he revealed to me at Trevor Live that it was the one song he really wanted to sing on Glee. Although in the context of his character being an exchange student from Ireland, he did casually mention, “If I’m singing ‘Home’, does that mean I’m going home?” After watching the episode, are we supposed to give Rory the benefit of the doubt and believe that he is getting deported or was it really just a ploy to get Sugar Motta to ask him to her Valentine’s Day Dance. I guess we’ll find out depending on Damian’s plans for Season 4.

When asked about being a regular next season, Damian had some interesting scoop to give to us regarding those lingering Season 4 rumors. He revealed talks about his contract haven’t begun yet and that he’s just really trying to enjoy his time in the now. While answering the status of his Glee future, Damian inadvertently confirmed some unknown statuses for some of the others:

“Honestly the reality is that nobody apart from 3 or 4 people know if they’re going to be on Glee next year. So everything’s up in the air with the whole Season 4 coming up, so we’ll see what happens.”

So as of right now, we know that Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Chris Colfer, and Naya Rivera are all confirmed for Season 4. Should we be worried about the future of the rest of the “seniors” which include Mark Salling, Amber Riley, Dianna Agron, Heather Morris, Harry Shum Jr., and Chord Overstreet? Maybe, but don’t go chasing Ryan Murphy & Co. just yet! There is still plenty of time for contract negotiations especially now that there is no Glee Concert Tour this Summer.

Check out why the cast will not be singing at a city near you this summer.

On a lighter note, other topics discussed involved Damian’s adjustment to America. In a blog post Damian wrote, he said he never tried Peanut Butter before. Gasp! Peanut butter is one of my favorite foods, so I just had to get the scoop. When asked about it, Damian said he had never eaten it before September when Mark and Darren made him eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Damian joked though:

“Eveyone knows that on the set of Glee, [Glee writers] write about what [cast members] learn as a person. So maybe there’s going to be a peanut butter scene. Who knows? Wait and see!”

Hrm, is he joking or is this an actual hint? I hope he’s not cause some of the writers here at GleeFan.com (aka Mary, Laura, Jon & myself) have been debating the awesomeness of peanut butter for days. I think a peanut butter scene would settle the argument and be the icing on the proverbial cake.

Update February 28: Damian wasn’t joking! Glee featured Rory Flannigan tasting peanut butter for the first time in episode 3x14 “On My Way.”

Check out Damian’s full interview below starting at 0:22. He also talks filming Regionals & a wedding, working with Samuel Larsen, and Glee’s new Forever 21 Clothing Line.

It’s a sad day, Gleeks. The annual Glee tour will not be happening this year to allow the cast time to relax.  The Hollywood Reporter is saying that the Glee cast will receive a two month break, but a one-night benefit concert is being planned in California.

A spokesperson for Fox told The Hollywood Reporter, “We currently have no plans of touring the cast this summer.”

The one night event will be at the Hollywood Bowl and will raise money for Glee‘s Give a Note Foundation, which raises money for the arts education in middle schools and high schools. The goal is to raise $10 million this year.

The cast’s various projects would most likely interfere with the tour.  Such projects include Chris’ new book as well as new movie. Also, Amber and Naya are gearing up for the release of their new albums.

It should be noted that Ryan Murphy, who usually goes on tour with the cast, is also extremely busy with his three other shows: The Glee Project, American Horror Story, and an upcoming comedy show called The New Normal on NBC.

What’re your thoughts on this announcement? Do you wish the cast were touring?

Chris Colfer has added another project to his ever expanding resume! Chris has signed on to partake in Dustin Lawrence Black’s Prop 8 play, aptly titled 8.

The play will be a special one night event at California’s Wilshire Ebell Theatre on March 3rd.  Other actors partaking in this event include George Clooney, Kevin Bacon, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, and more. Chris isn’t the only Glee cast member either. Jane Lynch and Matthew Morrison have also signed on.

Proposition 8, for those who don’t know, was a ballet proposition in California that wanted to make marriage only valid between one man and one woman. The proposition was heavily discussed in the media when first introduced back in 2008.

The play is scheduled to go on a nationwide tour, sans the celebrity cast members, later this year.

This past Thursday, I had the opportunity to talk with Damian McGinty at the Belvedere (RED) Pre-Grammy Party in Hollywood for our friends at Starry Constellation Magazine. While there, Damian inadvertently revealed an enormous filming secret! When discussing the hectic schedule of Glee, he revealed that he almost did not make it to the event because:

“We just finished filming a wedding”

I repeat, Damian exclusively revealed that they just filmed A WEDDING! Of course we all know that there are two engagements on the show right now: the expected engagement between Will Shuester and Emma Pillsbury and the surprising one between Finn Hudson and Rachel Berry. When asked, if it was Wemma’s or Finchel’s? Damian was tight lipped and said: “You’ll have to wait and see, but what I can say is the bride looked absolutely beautiful.”

Now Damian’s hints don’t give us too much details until you take into account prior Tweets from the cast. Previously, Lea Michele Tweeted:

In addition, cast members Chord Overstreet and Kevin Mchale both Tweeted pictures with Jeff Goldblum who plays Hiram Berry, one of Rachel’s dads, that same Thursday they filmed the wedding. While we don’t have any context about the wedding, evidence is shaping up to be purely Finchel. Does this mean Rachel Berry will now be Rachel Hudson? For now, we’ll have to wait until the episode airs, but we can all still speculate.

Do you think it’s Finchel’s or Wemma’s. Do you want a Finchel wedding to happen or do you think its too soon? Is it a dream sequence? Sound off below!

Will Schuester is about to get some competition in the form of a new Spanish teacher named David Martinez, played by Latin-American superstar Ricky Martin. In anticipation for this week’s episode where Mr. Martinez teaches Will some more Spanish skills and gives New Directions a singing lesson they’ll never forget, Glee posted the full video of Ricky singing the current chart topper “Sexy and I Know It” by LMFAO on their YouTube. Watch the video below!

Are you a fan of Ricky Martin’s sultry Latin ways or was that a dud? Let us know below!

Awards season is nearing its end as the Screen Actors Guild Awards was broadcasted from Los Angeles Sunday Night. Although Glee did not win the award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series (congrats Modern Family!) there was much to excited about from the red carpet.

The Glee cast looked gorgeous as they walked down the red carpet. Lea Michele and Naya Rivera were ranked one and four, respectively as the “Hottest Stars of the Night” according to the E! Heat Gauge.

Lea lapped the competition with almost twice as many Tweet “votes” than the second place celebrity who just happened to be George Clooney! It wasn’t hard to figure out why she placed first. She looked sultry in her gray Versace dress with a slit that bordered upon her upper thigh. Naya, on the other hand, looked more ethereal in a beaded cream dress by Naeem Khan.

Check out photos of the Glee cast at the SAG Awards, including a candid of Cory Monteith meeting George Clooney!

On the red carpet, Naya gave little hints about the upcoming Brittana storyline. She revealed to Kristin Dos Santos from Watch with Kristin that the episode will contain some “very, very cute moments.” According to Kristin, Naya sported a huge “Cheshire grin while talking about Brittany and Santana in the Valentine’s Day episode.”

Elsewhere on the red carpet, the rest of the cast mingled with other reporters as well. Mark Salling joked with E! News correspondent Ross Mathews on how he manages to play a high schooler:

“I’m 17 years old… 30-17, I think is the terminology”

Check out Mark and Jenna Ushkowitz’s solo interviews, and Chord Overstreet & Amber Riley’s joint interview!

Lastly, do you remember Jane Lynch at the 2012 Golden Globes juggling in the GlamCam 360? Well at this year’s SAG Awards, E! News correspondent Giuliana Rancic challenged Jane to a juggling duel. Both showed their inner circus skills, but Guiliana outlasted Jane. Either way, thats way longer than I can juggle!

Even though Glee didn’t win a SAG award Sunday night, there was so much for us Gleeks to be happy about and enough content to keep us entertained until Tuesday’s Michael Jackson themed episode.

Glee goes disco this April with a Saturday Night Fever themed episode. Ryan Murphy told TVGuide Magazine:

“We’ve never done disco on the show, but I’m interested in the genius of The Bee Gees.”

Rumor has it that the movie’s star John Travolta may also make an appearance in the episode as part of a Finn dream sequence.

Oxygen announced today that The Glee Project has been picked up for a second season and is set to premiere this summer with 14 finalists instead of 12. Ryan Murphy, Dante Di Loreto, Zach Woodlee, and Nicki Anders will all be returning to the show.

Are you excited for the next generation of Damian McGintys and Samuel Larsons?

One day after the Gleek Twittersphere trended the topic “Keep The Glee Cast“, Fox Entertainment President Kevin Reilly revealed major details about the future of Glee’s next season.

According to Matt Mitovich of TVLine, Reilly revealed to the press present at the Television Critics Association winter tour on Sunday that:

“We are graduating the characters that are [due] to graduate, and what’s come out of it is [series boss] Ryan [Murphy] and the guys have come
up with a really cool idea. There will not be a Glee spinoff but those characters will graduate and it’s led to a very interesting idea that I think is going to really give us something cool to dig into next season.”

For those of you Gleeks hoping for the Rachel Berry, Kurt Hummel at NYADA spin-off, sorry! The spin-off is not happening.

There is no word yet on whether the whole “Graduating” cast is staying, but Reilly did specifically mention that Lea Michele is confirmed for next season. Rachel Berry fans rejoice! When asked about the future of the rest of the seniors, specifically Chris Colfer, Reilly offered:

“What I said before is creatively, we’d want everybody back. I’ve got to look at the contractual situation for all of those. And we will.”

Peculiar. Should the fans of Kurt Hummel and Co. be worrying right now? For the most part, no.

Plans for the show are mum, but speculation is already running high. Among speculation is that Rachel and Kurt do go off to NYADA while other ideas involve some of the seniors becoming teachers. Personally, I’m going to throw Jonathan Groff‘s Jessie St. James back into the Season 4 mix. Unfortunately, we’ll all have to wait towards the end of Season 3 for the big reveal, but as Reilly puts it:

“I think it’s going to be a good thing for the show. … It’s cool. It’s different.”
