Maybe these Glee kids aren’t so invincible after all!

While walking the red carpet for a Glee-relate event, vocal standout Amber Riley collapsed in the midst of giving an interview!

Talk about a show stopper…

The good news is, Amber’s just fine – she even took to her Twitter to assure fans that her passing out in front of thousands of people should be no cause for concern.

Wait…

Hey guys, I’m okay I got a little dizzy from all the photog flashes!… You’d think I’s be used to it by now, still a red carpet amateur I guess. Gonna get checked out but I feel fine. Thank you for all the concern and well wishes.

Even though we think there may be a little more going on here than Amber says, we do want to echo her shout out to the photogs at the event, for not snapping pictures of a girl while she was down (literally).

I’d also like to thank the photographers for being so professional and not taking photos of me on the ground. I truly truly appreciate it. Could have been super embarrassing.

Get some rest Amber!  All us Gleeks need you!

Believe it or not – Glee is planning yet another “tribute” episode – this time, honoring the late, great Whitney Houston.

The cast will perform eight songs from the songstress, who passed away early last month, with powerhouse vocalist Amber Riley leading the way.  Riley performed a moving rendition of Houston’s “I Will Always Love You”, just days after the singer’s death and insiders report that this episode is a continuation of the cast’s wishes to pay their respects to an amazing artist.

It’s using Whitney’s music as a way to say goodbye… A way to respectfully say thank you for her music.

Series star Lea Michele took to her Twitter this morning to update fans about filming,

@MSLEAMICHELE: Starting a new episode today. A very special tribute to one of the worlds most amazing singers. Very excited about this one.

No air date has been set for the Whitney episode, but stay tuned to GossipTeen for updates!

Glee stars Jenna Ushkowitz and Amber Riley opted for two very different styles on the red carpet of the 2011 Emmy Awards held at the Nokia Theatre LA Live in Los Angeles, California on Sunday (September 18) – more pictures below.

Amber got all dolled up and glamorous in a lavender gown, while Jenna went for a little edgier look with a tight updo, dramatic makeup and an asymmetric strapless black gown by Ghadah Paris.

New York City is in full Glee-mania.

The cast of the hit TV show are filming the finale (the New Directions group is headed to Nationals) on the East Coast and Mayor Bloomberg took time out to welcome them at a press conference held at the Gershwin Theater.

Joking with the cast, the Big Apple Mayor said “Mayors don’t get a lot of time to watch television, so I don’t know much about this season’s plot but actually it would be great to see what happens with Finn and Rachel.”

“We’ve been filming ‘Glee’ in Los Angeles for two years. We’ve never met the mayor there,” said executive producer Dante Di Loreto.

The show is filming the season two episode (to air May 24th) and they will be around until the 29th. They are scheduled to shoot scenes at some of the major landmarks, including Lincoln Center, Times Square and Central Park.

So far, most of the cast has been spotted, papped and twitterazzi’d all around the city.

Cory Monteith, Chord Overstreet, Chris Colfer, Lea Michele, Dianna Agron, Jenna Ushkowitz, Heather Morris, Mark Salling and lots more of the cast are pictured below.

Photos of the conference plus their first day of shooting are below.  Read more »

Marie Claire is Gleeking out the cover of their May 2011 issue! The girls of Glee, Lea Michele, Amber Riley and Dianna Agron, got their own cover and the posed for a group cover of the upcoming issue of the magazine (individual covers below).

The girls have different styles, but they are really good friends contrary to what people might think. The girls look glamorous and fabulous in blue together. In the interview, they talk about the show and reveal Lea and Dianna are rumored to be in a lesbian relationship. GASP!

Here are some highlights from the Glee Girls’ Marie Claire interview:

Marie Claire: – Your character’s friendship with Kurt is so special. Who’s your Kurt in real life?

Amber Riley – “Kurt! Chris Colfer really is my Kurt. That’s my baby. Having his character at that other school – Dalton Academy-this season is driving me up the wall.”

Dianna Agron – “Everybody is convinced that Lea and I are in a relationship. There are forums with photos of us hugging.”

Marie Claire: – You famously got into a car accident on the way to your Glee audition, ditched the rental and ran to the Fox lot anyway. Were you at all afraid they would think you were nuts?

Lea Michele – “I was more afraid that they’d think I was using that as an excuse for being late. Because at first they were like, “Oh, my God are you OK?” But after a while they were joking, “So that ‘car crash’ you were in….” I literally had chunks of glass that I pulled from my hair and put on the table. I look back on that day and think, I can’t believe I did that. I left the car on the side of the road. But something came over me.”
