From GLEEtastic.com:
For a guy who doesn't like spoilers, Ryan Murphy is doing a good job of getting them all out there himself! The contradictory Glee mastermind appeared on Ryan Seacrest's radio show today and let loose a torrent of scoop!
For starters: Yes, Britney Spears will appear on her own tribute episode! But don't expect any mocking. "The Britney episode, I'm here to say, is so reverential about her," said Murphy, "and so kind and it's about her music and it's not about her personal life. And I think, Britney Spears is pop-culture, and I think she's been through a lot. And I want to do something that just sort of says, you know what, 'thank you for what you have done.'" Awesome! Ryan doesn't know who Brit-Brit will appear as, but here's guessing herself!
He also revealed that the Michael Jackson episode, while on the top of his wishlist, might not happen because of rights issues. He said that MJ, The Beatles, or Prince could be the focus of the post-Super Bowl edition. Let's hear it for The Beatles and be done with it!

** NOT THE BEATLES!! The GLEEmunity & MJFam WANTS the MJ episode...c'mon, Sony! **

Brit Invasion Continues on GLEE...
From USmagazine.com:
Gleeks and Britney fans, rejoice!
Glee creator Ryan Murphy confirmed that Britney Spears will appear on the upcoming episode of the FOX hit dedicated to her pop songs.
"Britney, I think 100 percent, is going to be on the episode" for a "couple of scenes," Murphy revealed during a Tuesday radio appearance for On-Air with Ryan Seacrest.
Murphy teased that "the fun Britney stuff happens" when members of the show's glee club go under anesthesia at the dentist (played by John Stamos) and hallucinate about the Circus singer, 28. "They have fantasies of how they can be like her," he explained.
Don't expect the episode to poke fun at Britney's famous head-shaving incident or other lowpoints in her infamous breakdowns of 2007 and 2008.
"The Britney episode, I'm here to say, is so reverential about her," Murphy insisted. "It's about her music and it's not about her personal life."
"Britney Spears is pop culture, and I think she' s been through a lot," he said of the divorced mom of two. "I want to do something that just sort of 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.'... We're handling Britney with kid gloves."
"I really admire what she's done with her life and how she's turned herself around," added Murphy, who also directed Julia Roberts' new flick Eat, Pray, Love.
** Just an added note that Britney Spears has been celebrating by following many in the GLEEmunity on Twitter! I am one of them! **

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.”
Check out the entire article http://hollywoodcrush.mtv.com/2010/08/09/glee-michael-jackson/.
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”. ;)

@KristinDSantos & @adammshankman...WHY?
But we WANT the Michael Jackson tribute!!!
From Kristin Dos Santos at eonline.com:
Even the best singers on Glee know you can't win regionals without an awesome dance routine.
So who better to direct an episode than So You Think You Can Dance judge, Step Up 3D producer and famed choreographer Adam Shankman?
During the TCA press tour Monday, Glee show runner Ryan Murphy confirmed that Adam would be directing one of the first 10 episodes next season. Read on to hear what Adam told us last night about his episode (including the Michael Jackson rumors) and who he's most excited to direct...
"I can't say [which episode I'll be directing]," Adam told us backstage last night after the SYTYCD semifinal, "but it's not the thing everybody thinks it is."
Yesterday, Ryan Seacrest tweeted that he "got a pretty heavy hint" from Adam "that he's directing the MJ episode." "All I went was 'hee hee' in Michael Jackson's voice," Adam told us. "I didn't say yes I was doing the Michael Jackson episode.
"I literally sent an email to Ryan Murphy saying I had nothing to do with" the Michael Jackson reports, Adam told us. "The details are not all in—I don't even know if the music is all chosen for the episode."
"I told Ryan the episodes I respond to the best were the ones that pack an emotional wallop. He came up with the idea for the one that he wants me to do."
About the Glee cast, Adam says, "I absolutely adore them. They're all really crazy big fans of So You Think You Can Dance and they were at the Step Up premiere, all of them."
"But I'll tell you who I'm dying to work with: Jane Lynch."

Reaudition - Who's In & Who's Out + Season 3
From jysk.com's Lauren Metz:
Fox is officially head-over-heels for Glee. The network picked up the show's third season -- before the second one even started filming!
Fox Entertainment President Kevin Reilly says, "Everything about Glee -- from the concept to the characters to the marketing -- has been innovative and risky...Glee has one of the most active, devoted fan bases I've ever seen, and we couldn't be more thrilled to give Gleeks a third season of their favorite show."
Ryan Murphy, the show's co-creator, echoes that sentiment. "It's been a whirlwind year - --from shooting the pilot to performing at the White House ...-- and yet we all feel like we've just begun this amazing musical journey. We think our Gleeks worldwide are going to love what we'll have in store for them in seasons two and three."
Ryan also leaked to other Ryan -- you know, Seacrest -- part of next season's plot.
Mark Salling (Puck) and Kevin McHale (Artie) were guests on Seacrest's KIIS FM radio show when they learned that their characters will need to audition again to be in next year's glee club. And only one of them will make it.
Dun dun dun.
Kevin joked, "I have to make it! I'm not going to sleep now." And Mark, who found work playing the guitar on Craigslist before his big Glee break, teased, "I may have to go back to Craigslist."
