Rumors at Rest for #MJonGLEE...or Not...?

From @ItsAGleekThing at www.mjonglee.wordpress.com:

Rumors were flying around twitter that a Michael Jackson Episode was confirmed. Today they were put to rest as Ryan Seacrest tweeted that he spoke to Ryan Murphy and he said that there were no plans yet about the episode but he wants to do it. https://twitter.com/RyanSeacrest/status/20804103306.

However it seems that the Glee cast are more than ready to tackle the MJ episode. Here’s what they revealed during interviews on the red carpet at the Teen Choice Awards.
Matt Morrison: “That would be pretty cool, He is probably the best and most iconic performer in the history of music.”
Jenna Ushkowitz: “That’s a scary, scary episode to do, But that would be absolutely amazing.”
Amber Riley: “Hey, I would love to do a Michael Jackson episode.”
Harry Shum Jr: “All I know is I should be able to do some Michael, please. I’m excited to dive in there and make some magic.”
Heather Morris: “I’m excited to see what [show creator] Ryan Murphy could do with ‘Bad.’ Whatever they’re gonna do, it’s gonna be hysterical.”

Also, Chord Overstreet (one of Glee’s new characters for season 2) said, “I would love to cover Michael Jackson, too” he said. “I want to do at least one Michael Jackson song. I like ‘Beat It’ a lot.” [Source E!Online]. And let’s not forget that our dear Principal Figgins wants to “Beat It”. ;)
