Hey GLEEks!
We certainly made a ripple in the twittersphere when we made it known that we were NOT for Justin Bieber being on GLEE. There was also a lot of push back from those who didn't agree with our campaign, even though there was a decent portion of our supporters being Beliebers.
I also know that there were some that issues in my views on the situation. Even though I covered these on Twitter, I will attempt to do them here too.
Yes, Justin does annoy me, but I think that my view on him being on the show might have been different if he had respect for the show. I have not agreed with some of the guest stars chosen to be on, but the guest stars who HAVE been on are certainly proven in their fields AND they have the utmost respect for the show. Heck, THEY were starstruck when they walked on set! It's being good at what you do & having humility for it. When Justin came out & basically proved he didn't know what the show was about & then wanted to put in a condition of another guest star for the sole purpose of working with her (as a hot teacher, I might add) just shows his major disrespect & immaturity toward the show. And I agree that I think they need some younger-looking students in the hallways of McKinley High, but probably not one who looks 12. This isn't a slam on him in any way. He can't help how young he looks, but to wait to have an episode to have him on as a student is frustrating. Maybe they should have already had a few students who look really young in the hallways before then. Maybe that would have changed my mind on that aspect. And if he wants Cheryl Cole to appear as a hot teacher on an eppy where he's a student, doesn't that mean he might want one of those student/teacher affairs? Ew. And the whole crush thing was covered with Rachel/Mr. Shue/Suzy Pepper. Let that storyline die now!
And for those who complained about any guest stars who haven't sung before being on the show, I would like to point out that as for Gwyneth Paltrow being on & singing...she had just done the movie "Country Strong"...where she SANG! Oh, and she acts pretty well, too.
Now, Ryan Murphy & Brad Falchuk have come out saying there won't be a Bieber-centric episode because he doesn't have a big enough catalog to use. This makes sense, so it's a slight victory on our part. However, they did not say he would not APPEAR on GLEE. This was the larger part of our campaign due to the above listed reasons. If he does appear on the show, it will prove that GLEE has become a sell-out by just getting a name on the screen who's big right now, no matter the cost. The question then becomes, "Has GLEE really come to this & why is it needed?" It is one of the biggest shows on TV right now. It is covering important issues. I just think it will be a sad day when the show totally loses it's way. If Justin appears on a show that he doesn't understand, no amount of editing of his screen time will hide that fact. It will be very obvious that it is a gimmicky publicity stunt on both sides.
It has come out that one to three songs may be done in the course of this Bieber thing on GLEE, but the door is still open for that appearance. That one has NOT been debunked. The campaign of keeping him off our show was somehow misunderstood as a tribute show. I may be fine with a small out of songs being on, because that's all he's really got, so I knew there's no way they could do a tribute to him.
As for any GLEEk who doesn't stand for this & says they will not watch the show doesn't mean we are not true fans. We are...we just can't bear the thought of Ryan Murphy using GLEE to be a sell-out. It will lose so much meaning at that point. Even if the writing is fantastic for the show, please refer to the 2nd paragraph before this one.
You can agree, you can disagree. But I have kept my part of the campaign/protest civil. Others didn't, I know. But please know that it will be a sad day in the GLEEmunity if Justin Bieber does appear on GLEE while he still feels the way he does about the show.
Let's get back to basics and have less guest stars as part of the plot...to a point. I do think we can bring in some to be part of the families that we were told we would see. I do believe Jennifer Lopez (who has been dying to get on the show) should come on as Santana's mom, Margaret Cho should be Tina's mom, Ken Jeong should be Mike's dad, and Justin Timberlake should be Will's little bro...but only if they have the respect for the show! If they don't, then I don't want them on! We want to get back to the heart of the cast anyway.

#NoBieberonGLEE
Hi GLEEks!
So, it has been said that Ryan Murphy would like Justin Bieber to appear on GLEE. There was an outcry about this from the GLEEmunity the first time out. Then nothing else was heard about it until very lately...
Justin Bieber has recently come out & said that GLEE is about people who look good & sing good. Really? How about it's about a group of misfits who accept who they are & use their talent to get them through the day. It's about being a team & doing whatever you can to reach your goals & dreams...oh yeah, and they do it singing all kinds of genres of music.
It came out yesterday that he was trying to "negotiate" his appearance by giving a condition that Cheryl Cole must be a guest star as well...because he wants to work with her & thinks this would be the time. REALLY? This is what you call being an immature little snotty diva.
There is an updated campaign on Twitter right now about #NoBieberonGLEE. The GLEEmunity is about 90 to 1 against having him on.
He is not a fit for the show for many reasons. First, even though he is 16 (maybe 17), he looks 12...and sounds it too. He is a one-trick-pony & hasn't proved he can sing much else besides his bubble-gum lyric music with only a few words. There is no depth to anything he does. And he proved how shallow he is & that he thinks GLEE is a gimmick to help him out by the stunts he pulled in his quotes. It's obvious he doesn't watch the show, otherwise he would know what it is about. Plus he has proved he doesn't have the maturity to handle the "bieste".
It has come to my attention that the negotiations are going on for him to appear close to the end of Season 2 or in Season 3. The GLEEmunity is trying to get word out there & making it very clear that we will NOT watch this episode if it happens. It will be protested. As dedicated as I am to the show, you can guarantee that I will purposely miss this episode. It would be a disappointment on the part of Ryan Murphy & Fox to let down their fanbase by not listening to them.
We do know that they hear the fans because they have used "Finchel" & "Puckleberry" during the Furt eppy, so I would hope they would listen to this outcry before any writing & negotiating is done for this travesty.
There was even an article written about 2 hours into the #NoBieberonGLEE campaign by Alison Nadaud from examiner.com: http://www.examiner.com/glee-in-national/glee-justin-bieber-haters-campaign-to-keep-him-off-the-show
There is also a twitition for tweeters to "sign" specifically for "No Bieber On GLEE"! Find it & get your twitter signature on it!
I realize diehard beliebers are upset, especially ones who are GLEEks, but the collective GLEEmunity is dead-set against it & we need our voice heard!
If you are on Twitter & would like to help our cause, here's a couple of rules:
1. Only put #NoBieberonGLEE one time per tweet or it will be considered spam
2. Put it in EVERY tweet so we can get it to trend
3. Retweet as many #NoBieberonGLEE tweets as possible from others
Thanks for your support!
** Update - there is a counter campaign going on right now. I have seen many more supporting our cause, but we need to step it up if you do not feel Justin Bieber has what it takes to be on GLEE. **
** DON'T FORGET - Please be sure to spell it correctly or it will NEVER trend! (I before E, GLEEks!) #NoBieberonGLEE

Twitter Hates Me
Hell-O GLEEks!!
For my awesome Twitter followers, sorry I haven't posted lately. Twitter hates me I think.

I am trying you all!! Don't give up on me!!
I'm just hoping this posts out there...
Hope to chat with you soon, GLEEks! I will do my #FF's whenever I can actually get on...
Until then...have a great Halloween!! If anyone is dressing up as a GLEE character, I cannot wait to see! Chris Colfer definitely wants to see them too!!

Fatone'd for GLEE?
From Christopher Rosen at www.wetpaint.com:
Last year, after the all-Madonna episode, Britney Spears went on the Twitter offensive and wound up guest starring on the hit series. But don't expect a similar fate to befall former N'SYNCer Joey Fatone.
The former boy band star has hit Twitter and Facebook to campaign for an appearance on Glee. "Glee was good but I think my ass needs to get on that show a be a teacher or someone in the background ! Lol," he wrote on Twitter after the Britney episode.
He continued: "And let GLEEonFOX how ya feel either do an nsync ep or have me on there that would be a blast!!"
He also told People: "I love acting and I like to sing. It'd be perfect! Seriously, it's a great show. I'm a fan," adding that "Bye Bye Bye" or "It's Gonna Be Me" would be good songs for the show. Well, then! To be fair, both of those songs would be amazing for Glee, but do we really need to see Joey Fatone to have them played? Probably not. The only N'SYNC member we want on Glee is Justin Timberlake. Something tells us Ryan Murphy and the cast would agree.

#Pray4Nanis
Hell-O GLEEks.
I am writing this post with a request for help. I have met so many wonderful GLEEks on Twitter lately, and I recently began chatting with one a few weeks ago when I noticed in a post of hers that she died on the operating table & came back! I was so moved by that, I began chatting with her.
Our fellow GLEEk, @gleeknaniiss, is a 22 year old who is fighting for her life as I write this. She told a small circle of us that she wanted to get out of the hospital & live her life but knew she was too weak. We have been praying for her & encouraging her to take care of herself. She knows to do that & had a new look on life. She also fully believes that she is not done on Earth yet. I believe that, too.
Nanis has a blood condition that causes her to bleed. It was discovered a later than it probably should have been. She has been in ICU for weeks & recently had to undergo another surgery for internal bleeding. We have been truly concerned about her since then. She slipped into a coma, but came out of on GLEE's premier night! She had actually hoped to be well enough to travel to watch it, but that wasn't to happen.
A friend of hers has been updating us on how she's doing...
It's not well at the moment. Her heart is very weak now, and the doctors cannot do much more for her. She has to fight it out now.
I know she is in God's hands & she has so much faith! She is a beautiful spirit who is in desperate need of our prayers right now!
Would you please join me in our Twitter movement of #Pray4Nanis? We need these prayers from around the world coming from her fellow GLEEks!
I also ask that you pass this along. She is an amazing story & an amazing person. No, I haven't met her face-to-face, but our chats have been inspiring!
Thank you.
9/24 Update
Hell-O GLEEks!
They have brought in another doctor who wanted to change her medication. It has been done & there is improvement! She is awake & talking! She is sending her love to everyone who has been supporting her with love & prayers!
Thank you to those of you who have shared this post with some of the GLEE cast, too. Iqbal Theba does send his well wishes for Nanis to get better! What a great guy!
We are no where near done in this journey, GLEEks! Please continue the #Pray4Nanis movement as God keeps His mighty healing hand upon her & her spirit. Also include her family & friends who are there with her experiencing these miracles! Please pray for the doctors & medical staff that are helping with their healing hands & knowledge.
God is good...All the time! We love you, Nanis!!
** 2nd Update **
She has just had a relapse! Please pick up the prayers!! She needs us NOW!!
9/25 Update:
Nanis had to have another surgery. She came out of surgery very early this morning. She's still going, but in delicate condition. She cannot have visitors right now, but does have a doctor in the room with her around the clock!
Thank you to everyone who has been praying & giving support! Please keep praying for our dear friend!
9/26 Update:
Well GLEEks, Nanis' blood pressure went down last night. She is sedated right now & still no visitors, of course. In the meantime, her grandfather passed away yesterday (9/25) & they are having the funeral today. I do not thing Nanis knows due to the state she is in.
Please continue the #Pray4Nanis movement & be sure to include her family though this time. What a heartbreaking situation! Also include her doctors, nurses & friends though all of this.
Thank you to everyone who has been supporting Nanis. Even if you are not one who prays, please either start or send positive energy her direction!
Much love to you all!
2nd Update (9/26)
Our Nanis is really fighting hard tonight! Her blood pressure keeps dropping. Please pray harder, send positive & healing energy, and be sure to spread the word! She needs us right now GLEEks!
Thank you all for all of your love and support! Her family needs this too. Do NOT forget to pray for the doctors & nurses who are with her & treating her!!
9/27 Update:
Well, the doctors are really working hard to keep Nanis stabilized. The family is going through so much right now. Her grandfather was buried today & they are dealing with the ups & downs at the hospital.
Here's the hard & tricky part: the Mexican doctors want family & friends to start saying their goodbyes to her; the Houston doctors are saying there is hope & she will make it. I am putting my faith in God & the Houston doctors & hope you will join me!
Please make #Pray4Nanis surge to get word out about her! The power of prayer is amazing!! Continue to pray &/or send healing & positive energy to Nanis, her family, her friends & all the doctors & medical staff that are going through all of this right now! Please share this link also when & where you can! She needs us now, they all need us now! Even if you are not on Twitter to spread #Pray4Nanis, please at least share this link!
Thank you for all of your love, kindness & support for Nanis!
9/28 Update:
I got word this morning that, late last night, Nanis went into cardiac arrest. Doctors have worked very hard to save her. She is a fighter & has made it through yet again. She is an amazing miracle that remains in a very delicate state. She has been going through this last round for over a week now & is still going.
She obviously still needs our help. Her family still needs our love. The doctors & medical staff still need our support. Her friends still need our thoughts. Please continue our #Pray4Nanis movement...more than ever! It has been a hard journey, so let's take her by the hand & help her through these rough parts.
Thank you all for the continued love & support for Nanis. Her friends & family have expressed their ongoing gratitude for it!
9/29 Update:
Got word that Nanis is in an induced coma, but stable. Which is good for now. Please continue to Pray 4 Nanis, her dear friends that keep us updated, her family & certainly her doctors & all medical staff working with her!
Thank you, GLEEmunity, for you continued love & support of our friend!
2nd Update (9/29):
OMGlee!!! Nanis is responding to her new medications, is off of the ventilator & is AWAKE!! She is under strict observation, of course, and still no visitors allowed, but the power of prayer is amazing! And she is such a strong spirit!
Please continue to pray for this roller coaster ride! Keep praying for her recovery, for her family & friends going through all of this, and for the doctors & medical staff that are helping her heal! Pray that this ride ends soon & well! I would love for her to be able to tell about this ride!! Wouldn't you?
The love & support of the #GLEEmunity has been amazing! You all are wonderful! The family & her friends have been so appreciative!
10/1 Update:
Sorry for no updates yesterday, but there really weren't any. Which is a good thing!
What we know today is that she is getting antsy & is complaining that she is still unable to have visitors! YEA! She's complaining about no visitors! This is a very positive thing & she one tough chic! I know I keep saying this, but Nanis is an amazing spirit that is both so sweet & so strong!
Our prayers are working GLEEks! What an amazing GLEEmunity we have to love & support each other in these kinds of times!
Keep praying for Nanis. Of course, be sure include her family & friends as they are feeling the effects of the exhaustion of this whole ordeal. Please continue to pray for the doctors who have had faith in Nanis & are working hard to make sure she can leave that hospital to go and continue living her life, as well as the medical staff that are there supporting these doctors & working with Nanis!
Thank you all for keeping up with these posts, too! You all are amazing!
10/3 Update:
Well everyone, our prayers are working wonders & miracles! As Nanis is still in ICU, she got to have family see her, and then hopefully more visitors tomorrow! This is amazing, GLEEks! Keep up the prayers! You all are amazing!
I would like to take this moment to call out a particular blog. Fake Live Journal Deaths has been trying everything they can to prove this as a hoax; that's what they try to set out to do...scope the internet & take things out of context to try to say every "death"-type story is a hoax. Yes, http://community.livejournal.com/fake_lj_deaths/, I know it's you. There was even an awful comment left early on in this movement that I refused (and still do) to post due to the cruel nature it has. Well, my non-believing readers. There's this thing out there called prayer & another that goes along with it called miracles. That's what you are experiencing with this whole thing, so sorry you can't prove much else from your stand point. I also know that you keep checking here. So hopefully it has encouraged you to pray, not prey.
Keep up the great prayers & keep the movement going as our beautiful friend keeps up on the mend!
GLEEks are amazing!! And so is Nanis!
Late 10/4 Update:
Nanis is not doing very well right now. She might still get a couple of visitors, but more tests need to be run. Keep the prayers up NOW, GLEEks!! Nanis needs us to make it through this! So does her family & friends! Pray for them and for the doctors & medical staff that have faith in her & are working to keep her here & get her healed! The movement needs a new upswing! Let's go!!
To our beautiful Nanis: Keep Holding On!
To all the GLEEks out there praying: Don't Stop Believin'!
10/6 Update:
Just a quick update...Nanis is still struggling. She is still in ICU & she has been in a lot of pain lately, and she started bleeding a little through her nose so the doctors got worried and said it would be safer to just cut the visits for now, however she is still awake & fighting!
So that's where we are at!
Keep praying, GLEEks! Keep up the #Pray4Nanis movement! Remember her family, friends, doctors, nurses & medical staff! They appreciate the support, thoughts, prayers, positive thoughts & healing energy! Keep it up!
10/8 Update:
PRAY HARD!! About 4 hours ago (of this update), Nanis is in surgery...brain surgery. With her very fragile state lately (even though she is QUITE the fighter), there is a lot to be concerned about this time. Her family & friends are frightened with this surgery. Frankly, her twitter friends are too...like me.
If you thought you needed to pray hard before, #Pray4Nanis must be bigger & stronger NOW!!
Pray for her strength & spirit though the surgery. Pray for her family & friends as all they can do wait. Pray for her doctors, nurses & medical staff as they are dealing with a very serious & fragile form of healing with her.
PRAY HARD, GLEEks!! Please!
Thank you...and hope to update you with some good news...
2nd Update (10/8):
Nanis made it through surgery & the doctors got a blood clot from her brain. Hopefully this will help out with a lot of problems. Please continue to pray for Nanis as she recovers from this one. Don't forget her family & friends as they anxiously await what happens.
Thank you for all of your awesome support! It is working unbelievable miracles so far!
10/10 Update:
The situation with Nanis even more critical. Things have been very hard, doctors having struggling to keep her going, her parents are destroyed ... things are looking worse than ever, according to her very good friend keeping us as updated as possible. The surgery to remove the clot from her brain has helped, but they had to lower the drugs dose, so now she is bleeding constantly but they can not up the dose for fear of more clots forming...either she bleeds out or her blood just coagulates.
They are trying to find a solution, 3 more doctors from the Houston team are arriving tomorrow morning to see what they can do for the case. They were talking about transferring her to Houston, but her situation right now makes it impossible.
Please pray for this entire situation, GLEEks! Nanis is in dire need again/still of our support, prayers, positive thoughts & healing energies. Her family & friends are in need of our strength for them right now. Please pray the doctors can do more to keep her around. I would like to put out there to pray really hard that the transfer to Houston becomes a reality. I miss the tweet conversations with her & this is not someone who deserves this! She is a beautiful & sweet spirit who has been fighting so hard the last few weeks!
Won't you join us in a worldwide prayer vigil for Nanis & her loved ones? They deserve nothing less.
Thank you...
10/17 Update:
OK, I know it's been a week, but I hadn't gotten any updates. That has NOT stopped me from praying for our friend everyday anyway! Hope you all have continued the #Pray4Nanis vigil, too. I believe many of you have because she is currently awake & talking! What a ride this has been for her, GLEEks! But she is still on this scary ride. Please do not stop praying for Nanis until the after the ride is over!
Thank you to everyone who has been praying for Nanis, her family, her friends, her doctors & medical staff. And if you haven't been praying but have been sending strengthening, positive & healing energy their way, too...it has been so appreciated.
And for those at http://community.livejournal.com/fake_lj_deaths (especially you, 289106), please note that I do know you are still keeping up with Nanis, and do truly hope this has actually been an inspiring story for you to follow. Because I know you keep checking.
Keep up the beautiful vigil for our sweet-spirited & strong-willed friend! Hope to bring you more good news soon!
10/18 Update:
Keep up those prayers, GLEEks! Just got word that, even though Nanis is still under close observation, she is receiving a few visitors, is awake & talking, and as long as she continues to do well, she may be moved OUT of ICU this week!! What a miracle!!
Keep praying hard & continue the #Pray4Nanis vigil & movement. The prayers, positive thoughts & healing energies are working wonders! Her family & friends are very happy & feel like they can start breathing a little easier, too!
So please continue to support Nanis with your prayers & thoughts, and always include her family, friends, doctors, nurses & medical staff that are there with her as well. This has been a tiring ordeal, and it seems to be looking up...make the miracle happen!

Also include her family & friends who are there with her experiencing these miracles! Please pray for the doctors & medical staff that are helping with their healing hands & knowledge.
God is good...All the time! We love you, Nanis!!
** 2nd Update **
She has just had a relapse! Please pick up the prayers!! She needs us NOW!!
9/25 Update:
Nanis had to have another surgery. She came out of surgery very early this morning. She's still going, but in delicate condition. She cannot have visitors right now, but does have a doctor in the room with her around the clock!
Thank you to everyone who has been praying & giving support! Please keep praying for our dear friend!
9/26 Update:
Well GLEEks, Nanis' blood pressure went down last night. She is sedated right now & still no visitors, of course. In the meantime, her grandfather passed away yesterday (9/25) & they are having the funeral today. I do not thing Nanis knows due to the state she is in.
Please continue the #Pray4Nanis movement & be sure to include her family though this time. What a heartbreaking situation! Also include her doctors, nurses & friends though all of this.
Thank you to everyone who has been supporting Nanis. Even if you are not one who prays, please either start or send positive energy her direction!
Much love to you all!
2nd Update (9/26)
Our Nanis is really fighting hard tonight! Her blood pressure keeps dropping. Please pray harder, send positive & healing energy, and be sure to spread the word! She needs us right now GLEEks!
Thank you all for all of your love and support! Her family needs this too. Do NOT forget to pray for the doctors & nurses who are with her & treating her!!
9/27 Update:
Well, the doctors are really working hard to keep Nanis stabilized. The family is going through so much right now. Her grandfather was buried today & they are dealing with the ups & downs at the hospital.
Here's the hard & tricky part: the Mexican doctors want family & friends to start saying their goodbyes to her; the Houston doctors are saying there is hope & she will make it. I am putting my faith in God & the Houston doctors & hope you will join me!
Please make #Pray4Nanis surge to get word out about her! The power of prayer is amazing!! Continue to pray &/or send healing & positive energy to Nanis, her family, her friends & all the doctors & medical staff that are going through all of this right now! Please share this link also when & where you can! She needs us now, they all need us now! Even if you are not on Twitter to spread #Pray4Nanis, please at least share this link!
Thank you for all of your love, kindness & support for Nanis!
9/28 Update:
I got word this morning that, late last night, Nanis went into cardiac arrest. Doctors have worked very hard to save her. She is a fighter & has made it through yet again. She is an amazing miracle that remains in a very delicate state. She has been going through this last round for over a week now & is still going.
She obviously still needs our help. Her family still needs our love. The doctors & medical staff still need our support. Her friends still need our thoughts. Please continue our #Pray4Nanis movement...more than ever! It has been a hard journey, so let's take her by the hand & help her through these rough parts.
Thank you all for the continued love & support for Nanis. Her friends & family have expressed their ongoing gratitude for it!
9/29 Update:
Got word that Nanis is in an induced coma, but stable. Which is good for now. Please continue to Pray 4 Nanis, her dear friends that keep us updated, her family & certainly her doctors & all medical staff working with her!
Thank you, GLEEmunity, for you continued love & support of our friend!
2nd Update (9/29):
OMGlee!!! Nanis is responding to her new medications, is off of the ventilator & is AWAKE!! She is under strict observation, of course, and still no visitors allowed, but the power of prayer is amazing! And she is such a strong spirit!
Please continue to pray for this roller coaster ride! Keep praying for her recovery, for her family & friends going through all of this, and for the doctors & medical staff that are helping her heal! Pray that this ride ends soon & well! I would love for her to be able to tell about this ride!! Wouldn't you?
The love & support of the #GLEEmunity has been amazing! You all are wonderful! The family & her friends have been so appreciative!
10/1 Update:
Sorry for no updates yesterday, but there really weren't any. Which is a good thing!
What we know today is that she is getting antsy & is complaining that she is still unable to have visitors! YEA! She's complaining about no visitors! This is a very positive thing & she one tough chic! I know I keep saying this, but Nanis is an amazing spirit that is both so sweet & so strong!
Our prayers are working GLEEks! What an amazing GLEEmunity we have to love & support each other in these kinds of times!
Keep praying for Nanis. Of course, be sure include her family & friends as they are feeling the effects of the exhaustion of this whole ordeal. Please continue to pray for the doctors who have had faith in Nanis & are working hard to make sure she can leave that hospital to go and continue living her life, as well as the medical staff that are there supporting these doctors & working with Nanis!
Thank you all for keeping up with these posts, too! You all are amazing!
10/3 Update:
Well everyone, our prayers are working wonders & miracles! As Nanis is still in ICU, she got to have family see her, and then hopefully more visitors tomorrow! This is amazing, GLEEks! Keep up the prayers! You all are amazing!
I would like to take this moment to call out a particular blog. Fake Live Journal Deaths has been trying everything they can to prove this as a hoax; that's what they try to set out to do...scope the internet & take things out of context to try to say every "death"-type story is a hoax. Yes, http://community.livejournal.com/fake_lj_deaths/, I know it's you. There was even an awful comment left early on in this movement that I refused (and still do) to post due to the cruel nature it has. Well, my non-believing readers. There's this thing out there called prayer & another that goes along with it called miracles. That's what you are experiencing with this whole thing, so sorry you can't prove much else from your stand point. I also know that you keep checking here. So hopefully it has encouraged you to pray, not prey.
Keep up the great prayers & keep the movement going as our beautiful friend keeps up on the mend!
GLEEks are amazing!! And so is Nanis!
Late 10/4 Update:
Nanis is not doing very well right now. She might still get a couple of visitors, but more tests need to be run. Keep the prayers up NOW, GLEEks!! Nanis needs us to make it through this! So does her family & friends! Pray for them and for the doctors & medical staff that have faith in her & are working to keep her here & get her healed! The movement needs a new upswing! Let's go!!
To our beautiful Nanis: Keep Holding On!
To all the GLEEks out there praying: Don't Stop Believin'!
10/6 Update:
Just a quick update...Nanis is still struggling. She is still in ICU & she has been in a lot of pain lately, and she started bleeding a little through her nose so the doctors got worried and said it would be safer to just cut the visits for now, however she is still awake & fighting!
So that's where we are at!
Keep praying, GLEEks! Keep up the #Pray4Nanis movement! Remember her family, friends, doctors, nurses & medical staff! They appreciate the support, thoughts, prayers, positive thoughts & healing energy! Keep it up!
10/8 Update:
PRAY HARD!! About 4 hours ago (of this update), Nanis is in surgery...brain surgery. With her very fragile state lately (even though she is QUITE the fighter), there is a lot to be concerned about this time. Her family & friends are frightened with this surgery. Frankly, her twitter friends are too...like me.
If you thought you needed to pray hard before, #Pray4Nanis must be bigger & stronger NOW!!
Pray for her strength & spirit though the surgery. Pray for her family & friends as all they can do wait. Pray for her doctors, nurses & medical staff as they are dealing with a very serious & fragile form of healing with her.
PRAY HARD, GLEEks!! Please!
Thank you...and hope to update you with some good news...
2nd Update (10/8):
Nanis made it through surgery & the doctors got a blood clot from her brain. Hopefully this will help out with a lot of problems. Please continue to pray for Nanis as she recovers from this one. Don't forget her family & friends as they anxiously await what happens.
Thank you for all of your awesome support! It is working unbelievable miracles so far!
10/10 Update:
The situation with Nanis even more critical. Things have been very hard, doctors having struggling to keep her going, her parents are destroyed ... things are looking worse than ever, according to her very good friend keeping us as updated as possible. The surgery to remove the clot from her brain has helped, but they had to lower the drugs dose, so now she is bleeding constantly but they can not up the dose for fear of more clots forming...either she bleeds out or her blood just coagulates.
They are trying to find a solution, 3 more doctors from the Houston team are arriving tomorrow morning to see what they can do for the case. They were talking about transferring her to Houston, but her situation right now makes it impossible.
Please pray for this entire situation, GLEEks! Nanis is in dire need again/still of our support, prayers, positive thoughts & healing energies. Her family & friends are in need of our strength for them right now. Please pray the doctors can do more to keep her around. I would like to put out there to pray really hard that the transfer to Houston becomes a reality. I miss the tweet conversations with her & this is not someone who deserves this! She is a beautiful & sweet spirit who has been fighting so hard the last few weeks!
Won't you join us in a worldwide prayer vigil for Nanis & her loved ones? They deserve nothing less.
Thank you...
10/17 Update:
OK, I know it's been a week, but I hadn't gotten any updates. That has NOT stopped me from praying for our friend everyday anyway! Hope you all have continued the #Pray4Nanis vigil, too. I believe many of you have because she is currently awake & talking! What a ride this has been for her, GLEEks! But she is still on this scary ride. Please do not stop praying for Nanis until the after the ride is over!
Thank you to everyone who has been praying for Nanis, her family, her friends, her doctors & medical staff. And if you haven't been praying but have been sending strengthening, positive & healing energy their way, too...it has been so appreciated.
And for those at http://community.livejournal.com/fake_lj_deaths (especially you, 289106), please note that I do know you are still keeping up with Nanis, and do truly hope this has actually been an inspiring story for you to follow. Because I know you keep checking.
Keep up the beautiful vigil for our sweet-spirited & strong-willed friend! Hope to bring you more good news soon!
10/18 Update:
Keep up those prayers, GLEEks! Just got word that, even though Nanis is still under close observation, she is receiving a few visitors, is awake & talking, and as long as she continues to do well, she may be moved OUT of ICU this week!! What a miracle!!
Keep praying hard & continue the #Pray4Nanis vigil & movement. The prayers, positive thoughts & healing energies are working wonders! Her family & friends are very happy & feel like they can start breathing a little easier, too!
So please continue to support Nanis with your prayers & thoughts, and always include her family, friends, doctors, nurses & medical staff that are there with her as well. This has been a tiring ordeal, and it seems to be looking up...make the miracle happen!

Slushie? Cupcake? Anyone?
Hey GLEEKs!
If you've been keeping up, you know I have been trying to figure out how to make an awesome slushie cupcake (a.k.a. Gourmet Slushie Cake a la GLEE)!
I have just finished Gourmet Slushie Cake: Phase II, Stage II: GRAPE!
Tastes like a grape slushie in cake form, too! YEA! Just a couple more tweaks, and I will be very happy with my cupcakes! Just in time for my viewing party on 9/21!! Plus, I want them to taste as good as they look AND look even better than my Twitter background!
Here's some of the grape with a couple of the orange ones from Phase II, Stage I:

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! **

OMGlee!! Let's keep the faith, GLEEmunity!! But...do NOT give up the campaign until it is 100% a go!!
Plus there is this:
http://mjonglee.wordpress.com/2010/08/05/mj-on-glee-updates/
And...Adam Shankman has dropped a hint to Ryan Seacrest that he may be the one to direct it!
As more comes to be in this, you can bet you will find it here AND at http://mjonglee.wordpress.com!

What About That Tribute...@KristinDSantos?
OK GLEEks...
Many of you may have seen where there were interview videos posted from Kristin Dos Santos from E! with several of the GLEE cast. In TWO of the interviews she brought up the "secret tribute" and then brought up Bruce Springsteen. WHAT?
I called her out on it on Twitter letting her know that her pushing the Bruce Springsteen thing was unsatisfactory and that the GLEEmunity AND die-hard Michael Jackson fans are really rallying together & campaigning for a Michael Jackson tribute. Here was her response to me:
@KristinDSantos Not pushing. Not a fan. Just predicting it'll happen! RT @allGLEEk2me: @KristinDSantos is publicly pushing for a Bruce Springsteen tribute on #GLEE! We need to let her know we want #MJonGLEE!
I have responded to her saying we are predicting AND pushing for the Jackson tribute. We all need to rally together more! She gets to actually TALK to these people face-to-face that we could only hope to!
If you want to join in our campaign, on Twitter, please use the tag of #MJonGLEE and also help support the newly setup account dedicated to it, @MJonGLEE! Co-creator of GLEE, Brad Falchuk, just got an account on Twitter yesterday. You can find him at @BFalchuk. I think he's got some pull, so I know I have already thrown out a GLEEt (GLEE + tweet...check the GLEEktionary) about the push for the Michael Jackson tribute to him.
There is also a Facebook campaign on this, Michael Jackson "Glee Episode"!
Kristin, if you read this &/or get a hint from my tweet...please let it out that there is a global push for a Michael Jackson tribute!
Thank you for your support.

Superbowl Tribute Episode...and Beyond
He GLEEks!
It has been rumored that Ryan Murphy REALLY wants a Billy Joel tribute episode for it's showing right after the Superbowl. Even though Mr. Joel's name hasn't come up for a while, and things have gone super hush-hush about the male tribute episode (which will air right after the Superbowl), his name hasn't been denied either. I wonder if Ryan just forgot he said anything out loud...
And Sir Paul McCartney is trying to get onto GLEE (who doesn't wanna be on there except Miley Cyrus)and desperately wants the Superbowl episode. Hmmm...he already had the Superbowl! Is he trying to stay tied to it? Weird! I also think that it might be strange for him to appear...what would he do?
Well, my Glitter friend (uh...that's GLEE + Twitter to get a Rachael word via @Lea_MichelFAN) @ItsAGleekThing pointed out that a Michael Jackson tribute would be awesome! Why wouldn't it? So right now we have begun a campaign, via Twitter, to start it trending...and then a Facebook campaign my follow shortly after. Katy Perry is trying to use Facebook to get onto GLEE! (See? Who doesn't wanna be on GLEE...except Miley Cyrus...we KNOW!) It worked to Betty White on SNL!
How can Ryan Murphy say no to that? Or Sony for that matter?
Even though Mr. Murphy may be sticking with negotiations with whoever the male tribute episode will be about (*cough* Billy Joel), we would love to see Michael Jackson happen! If not this season...it's gotta happen in Season 3! Right?
Won't you join our cause? If you're a Glitter user, please GLEEt (GLEE + Tweet via @musicallylizzie) the following to help get it trending:

Facebook campaign will be announced when it's ready! Get Ready to Moonwalk GLEEks!

Botox Forces Rewrite on GLEE
From abs-cbnNEWS.com:
MANILA, Philippines – After the global backlash that resulted from Charice’s much-publicized cosmetic procedures, Ryan Murphy, the creator of hit American musical television series “Glee,” was forced to rewrite her episode, a report said.
The New York Magazine reported on July 19 that the rewritten episode contains a message that “it's important to love and embrace one's naturally round face as it is."
This was apparently in response to Filipino cosmetic surgeon Vicki Belo’s explanation that the thermage and Botox procedures done on Charice was intended to make the 18-year-old singer’s naturally round face more narrow.
Belo said the botulinum toxin injections, which immobilize some muscles, would not have any effect on Charice's voice.
Recently, Charice caused an Internet uproar after having cosmetic surgery to improve her looks ahead of her debut on top US television show "Glee."
"It's one of the big preparations we are making for 'Glee' and of course I also want to look fresh on cam," Charice said in a TV interview as she defended her decision to have cosmetic surgery at such a young age.
Fans, however, flooded the star's official website, www.charicemania.com, as the issue became a hot Internet topic, with many lamenting the fact that she felt pressure to alter her face.
Worried by the negative feedbacks, Charice’s mom, Raquel, called on the public not to make a big deal out of the issue.
She tweeted: “Don't make it big deal pls? It might affect Cha's career. Belo, if you read this help Charice to achieve her dream. Don't push her down.”
Raquel also claimed that Belo “broke the confidentiality between the patient and the doctor” when the celebrity cosmetic surgeon allowed the media to witness the procedures.
In response, the Belo Medical Group tweeted: “As with all endorsers, this wouldn't have been made public without Charice's knowledge and consent.”
Charice's procedure has become a top-10 global topic on the social networking site Twitter.
The diminutive Filipina first gained global renown through video-sharing website YouTube and has since become a favorite of US TV talk show queen Oprah Winfrey.
"Glee" is an hour-long comedy series that follows an optimistic high school teacher as he works with a group of outcasts to revive the fortunes of the school's performance art club

@GLEEonFox - Shame on You
I have a bone to pick with GLEE on Fox. If you follow me on Twitter & want to unfollow after this post, then please read my previous post.
GLEEonFox has decided to attack the GLEEmunity & act as their very own Sue Sylvester. In starting this exciting little competition of "GLEEk of the Week", it is actually creating a horrific political scene amoungst the GLEEmunity. It makes me wonder if Sue...uh...I mean...er...GLEE on Fox really has it out for the GLEEmunity in it's own greatness.
Even a "glist" of sorts went out at one point. I feel honored to have made that list, but it was a ballot of voting against each other or for yourselves. I did not vote. ALL GLEEks should be worthy of that kind of honor & the reward should be acceptance into the GLEEmunity...in which you all ARE!
So, I think it's really sad seeing my fellow GLEEks competing with each other, when we are really all on the same ground. It hurts my GLEEful heart.
I know the natural competitive spirit will keep this up...and I always give shoutouts for whoever needs it...but...I cannot take sides from my GLEEks going "door-to-door" on Twitter trying to gain a vote that may not even count. I refuse to pick between any of you. Sue...I mean...GLEE on Fox has it's own initial vote. Period.
I live for GLEE & for building the GLEEmunity. I refuse to stack you all up against each other in this nasty game. I feel like Rachael calling you all out!
But...I guess that's how GLEEonFox "c's" it.
************************************************************************
Figgins: And we are not pitting these kids against each other.
Sue: I wanna pit these kids against each other, am I clear?
** Sound like @GLEEonFox with #GLEEkoftheWeek? **

GLEEky Posers & Other Pet Peeves
Well, GLEEks (especially on Twitter)...
In the last couple of weeks, there have been MANY of us on Twitter losing followers that are supposed "GLEEks".
If you are truly a part of the GLEEmunity, you will be there to support one another, follow each other, and make sure others are followed! Yes, there are several accounts that are dedicated to more than just GLEE, but there are the few (like mine) that are dedicated to GLEE...PERIOD!! I do take it on & have so many GLEEks or those involved with GLEE that I follow...I can't turn any of them down. Just note that even if you unfollow me, I will still follow you & even give you shoutout. That's the kind of GLEEk I am.
If you are a GLEEk, you will have no trouble following other GLEEks, no matter what is said! We are like the GLEE club & accept EVERYONE! We are each other's sounding board/bored! We may not like it, but we will be supportive of it. It is a "famiGLEE"! If you are not willing to take this on...
1. Do Not follow in the first place
2. Do Not put the word "GLEE" or anything pertainin to GLEE in your username
No GLEEk deserves to lose any followers...EVER!
This leads to the next annoyance: Spammers. Not only to they follow you for ridiculous reasons...they end up unfollowing you anyway because you won't follow them. Ugh!
Spammers & poser GLEEks...STAY AWAY!!!
Thank you & have a GLEEful day.

The Woods Family
I am looking forward to more of Brittany in Season 2! LOVE HER character!! AND...there is a strong possiblity of having an episode dedicated to HER...YEA!!
So...a fellow GLEEk on Twitter, @HeMoFacts, had a fun game yesterday where GLEEks were asked to come up with some nominees to be different parts of her family, then they were voted on. So, the democracy of the GLEEmunity chose the following:
Mr. Woods - Brendan Frasier
Mrs. Woods - Lisa Kudrow
Lil Sis Woods - Violet Affleck
And I've made it quite known that I would LOVE for Betty White to play Brittany's Great Grandmother, named Catherine (goes by "Cat") & has been, in fact, reading the diary.
OK...I did point out that Violet is a 4yo & Brit's sis is supposed to be 7...but the GLEEmunity has spoken! What are you're thoughts?

Unbelieveable #GLEEmuntiy!
Have you checked Twitter lately...like TODAY? Something has run rampid in the Twittersphere! It's the GLEEmunity!!
If you remember, I coined the phrase not long ago (see post http://allgleek2me.blogspot.com/2010/06/gleeful-gleeks-gleefully-building.html).
There is a fellow Twitter GLEEk, @disneyyGLEEK, that wanted something to try to trend on Twitter! I suggested my term. It was tweeted out & you should see it go!!
I also put out there: "Come over to the #GLEEmunity, we have "I'm Sorry" cookies." It has made a couple of appearances, too.
People & GLEEks (I know, GLEEks are people, too), being a part of the GLEEmunity is sharing this same love with a whole world-wide family of GLEEks! What could even be better than that!
It's an amazing thing to be a part of & I am so GLEEful that we are a part of this amazing #GLEEmunity!! All are welcome & there is no hate or discrimination! It's awesome!!
OK...it's not a world-wide trending topic yet...YET!! The GLEEmunity is working to get it there!
