Britney Spears is doing something she hasn’t done in a really long time, she is hitting the books one more time for Glee. The Toxic singer has officially brought her Circus to the Fox show and Tweeted this picture from the set and said, “what’s up GLEEKS? Having so much fun on set!! Can’t wait for you guys to see the episode! -Britney” I think this episode is on everyone’s Radar and we can’t wait to see it when John Stamos and her make their Glee debuts. Hopefully they will get it right, and considering what show creator Ryan Murphy has said about it I think they will.
BTW looking at this picture, I wonder what type of role they decided to write for her, as of last week they were still uncertain what she would be doing on the show…
Glee creator Ryan Murphy was on Ryan Seacrest this morning and he broke the news that Britney Spears will be on her themed episode. Here is what he told the American Idol host after he denied that Matt Morrison will be shaving his head for the ep, “We are doing a Britney episode so I think people have certain expectations because the show is sarcastic. The Britney episode, I’m here to say, is so revolutionnaire(?) about her and so kind. It’s about her music and not about her personal life. And I think Britney Spears is pop culture and I think she has been through a lot. And I want to do something that says you know what, thank you for what you have done and we’re encouraging you to continue to be doing as fantastic as you are. So that’s not true, we are handling Britney with sort of kids gloves. I will sort of give you a little scoop, Britney I think is almost 100% is going to be on the episode, which is going to be exciting. So she is going to join us and do a couple of scenes.” As of now her part has not been written into the episode, but he described the episode where Britney’s song will all be part of fantasies to Seacrest and said, “John Stamos is on the show now, he’s a dentist and he comes in for National Cavity Week and four of the kids who have terrible dental hygiene. And those kids have to go in and get their teeth cleaned, some of them under anesthesia and that’s when the fun Britney stuff happens because the kids really want to do a Britney episode and the teacher says no. They have fantasies how they can be like her.” Murphy then went on to say he really is a fan of hers.
He also then said that he has three dream artists he would love to have featured on the Super Bowl episode and they are Prince, Michael Jackson or The Beatles. As of now he doesn’t know which one, but when I asked him last week at the TCAs if that particular episode would be a Paul McCartney one, he straight out said no. But I guess in his mind McCartney and The Beatles are two separate entities either that or he was lying to Seacrest or me… It will be interesting to see who will be the dream artist that gets the post-Super Bowl spot in February.

Katy Perry has a lot of costume changes in tonight’s Teen Choice Awards on Fox, but the one that I think is her most memorable is her Twihard Gleek geek outfit. But I think for Twilight’s Robert Pattison and Glee’s Mark Salling it is their favorite one because look at the way they are looking at her.
The Glee boys were prepping for the Teen Choice Awards and they were doing so by becoming the three wise monkeys. So I guess we can expect that they will see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil when they host the show on Fox tomorrow at 8p. For some reason I think Chris Colfer aka Kurt will see evil, Mark Salling aka Puck will hear evil and I am most certainly sure that Kevin McHale aka Artie will speak evil. So where is the 4th monkey? Cory Montieth aka Finn was the one who saw, heard and spoke evil when he Tweeted the picture of his co-stars.
Before Jane Lynch was stalking Mr Shue, she was stalking Tony the Tiger for Frosted Flakes. The 27 year old actress looks the same now as she did in that 1998 commercial.
BTW little factoid from the The New York Times, that commercial was directed by Christopher Guest. About 6 months later she was eating at a restaurant and he walked in, saw her and told her to come in to read for Best in Show and the rest is Hollywood History!
