‘Glee’ Episode 2.09 “Special Education”

Written by Violet on November 30, 2010 – 5:26 pm -

Glee is all new tonight and after last week’s emotional “Furt” when Kurt (Chris Colfer) left New Directions to join the zero tolerance to bullying Dalton Academy, the show choir heads off to sectionals. Good news! Blaine (Darren Criss) returns tonight as Kurt joined the Dalton Academy Warblers and the choirs sing it out at the competition.

What are the songs in tonight’s episode: “Special Education?”

  • Blaine, Kurt and The Warblers sing “Hey Soul Sister” by Train.
  • Sam (Chord Overstreet) and Quinn (Dianna Agron) duet on “I’ve Had The Time Of My Life” from Dirty Dancing.
  • Santana (Naya Rivera) gets a solo in “Valerie” by The Zutons
  • Kurt and Rachel (Lea Michele) diva-off with “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina”
  • Florence & the Machine’s “Dog Days Are Over” is on the list for tonight
  • Mike & the Mechanics 80s hit “The Living Years” is resurrected by a competing choir, The Hipsters.

Principal Figgins is back as Coach Sue (Jane Lynch) stepped down from the head chair and John Stamos popular Dr. Carl also returns as his relationship with Emma (Jayma Mays) moves along. I wish they’d get Sunshine (Charice) back!

What do you think? Will the McKinley High misfits take Sectionals?

Lea Michele & Cory Monteith Cover Teen Vogue For December – PHOTOS

Written by Violet on November 15, 2010 – 8:46 am -

Teen Vogue gleeks out for the December 2010 cover with Lea Michele and Cory Monteith of Glee. The break out hit on FOX has everyone talking and as Rachel and Finn, they are often at the center of the plot any given week. The two have grown into close friends off camera as well as you can see by their rapport in the interview. They talk about how they got started in show biz and no matter what, they love their jobs:

How did they start out?:
Cory Monteith: I’ll make it quick. I was 20 years old, working as a roofer and a telemarketer and driving a taxi, just barely getting by. A friend of a friend suggested I try acting. I was like, “Why? What am I going to do? Community theater?” But I took a class, and the teacher thought that I had potential, so I moved to Vancouver and started auditioning. I slept on someone’s floor. I brought, like, two shirts and two pairs of pants.

Lea Michele: I didn’t expect to be an actor either. But I went to an audition, and I got a job. After my first night on stage, I turned to my parents and said, “I love doing this—don’t ever stop me.” But I was very content; I figured that my life’s path was to be a Broadway performer. I only came out to L.A. because, after Spring Awakening

Cory Monteith: You were in Spring Awakening? Sorry. That’s a joke.

Lea Michele: Whenever we do an autograph signing and someone says, “I loved you in Spring Awakening,” he says, “You were in Spring Awakening?” So anyway—I didn’t think there’d ever be a part that was fitting for someone who looked like me, who acted like me. I was just stepping away from Broadway for a few months, and then Glee came around. And it’s really opened my eyes to this world of film and television and made me realize that maybe there’s a place for me.

Written by Violet on November 12, 2010 – 9:01 pm -

Tuesday’s episode of Glee promises to have some fantastic moments, but none quite as charming as witnessing the New Directions gang in Kid Form.

Not only will “The Substitute” have more fantastic Darren Criss; Gwyneth Paltrow guests and sings a sanitized version of Cee-Lo’s “F*** You” song (it has been changed to “Forget You”) – we will also see Mercedes (Amber Riley) Brittany (Heather Morris) Santana (Naya Rivera) Rachel (Lea Michele) Finn (Cory Monteith) Puck (Mark Salling) Tina (Jenna Ushkowitz) Sam (Chord Overstreet) Quinn (Dianna Agron) Kurt (Chris Colfer) Artie (Kevin McHale) and Mike (Harry Shum Jr.) all as children as Mr. Schuester (Matthew Morrison) is very ill and hallucinates the show choir team as adolescent versions of their current selves.

Check out the video below to see the kids interacting with the cast and crew and how they really have their alter egos onscreen personalities down. (Little Mercedes was so cute and wait till you see the little charmer that plays kid-Puck! A mighty mini mohawk and attitude. Awesome!)

Catch this episode on Fox, Tuesday November 16th at 8pm ET.

Parents Slam GLEE Stars On Controversial GQ Cover

Written by Gossip Gal on October 20, 2010 – 6:53 pm -

Uh oh!! GLEE stars, Cory Monteith, Dianna Agron and Lea Michele, are in the center of a major controversy after they sensually posed for a photo shoot featured in the upcoming issue of GQ Magazine (November 2010)- check out pictures and interview HERE.

The Parents Television Council slammed the FOX’s hit show producers in the following statement:

“It is disturbing that GQ, which is explicitly written for adult men, is sexualizing the actresses who play high school-aged characters on ‘Glee’ in this way. It borders on pedophilia. By authorizing this kind of near-pornographic display, the creators of the program have established their intentions on the show’s direction. And it isn’t good for families.”

Miley Cyrus “Who Owns My Heart” Slammed By Parents Council

That was a bit harsh. Besides the Glee stars are all way too old for this. Dianna and Lea are 24 years old and Cory is 28 years old, but we get the point. These actors are portraying teenagers on TV and this type of exposure results in the oversexualization of teens.

Tell us what you think about the photo shoot in question. Is GQ too sensual inappropriate for GLEE stars? And parents, would you let your kids see the extra sexy pictures?

‘Glee’ Tribute To ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show’ Sneak Peek PHOTOS

Written by Violet on October 12, 2010 – 6:45 pm -

Glee is getting into the Halloween spirit for the October 26th episode. A tribute to the cult classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show is the theme of the evening. Fox has released the first photos of the stars in costume and which Rocky original role they are reprising.

  • Kurt (Chris Colfer) will be Riff Raff
  • Finn (Cory Monteith) as Brad
  • Sam (Chord Overstreet) as Rocky
  • Quinn and Santana (Dianna Agron and Naya Rivera) will both be Magenta
  • Dr. Carl (John Stamos) will play Eddie
  • Rachel (Lea Michele) as Janet
  • Mercedes (Amber Riley) will be Frank-N-Furter

This looks like it could be such a fun episode but I hope the theme shows are over after this one. It is such a better dynamic when the songs truly fit the character arc happening, instead of the writers attempting to shoehorn a story around an artist (the Britney Spears full length video episode for example.)

Check out the early peek at some of those characters in make-up below.
