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.

Thoughts on #NoBieberonGLEE
This is from my GLEEky friend, ItsAGleekThing:
Just thought of something. Remember when it was announced that Charice was gonna be on Glee? What was the response? Generally, it was good. I'm sure this is because she's a very gifted singer and she added to the show. When you think if bieber, what's he gonna add to the show? His talent does not measure up to the likes of Charice or the rest of the Glee cast. He'll simply lower the standard of the show. Just because he's the the thing that's in today, it does not mean that he has to make an appearance on the show. Honestly I think bieber is just using Glee as a means of further self promotion. And RM and the others are probably thinking that the show will get more views due to more beliebers tuning in. Stop and think, is that what Glee really is about? Self-promotion and a higher view count? It's not... People say we are hating on bieber but really we are just concerned about one of our favorite shows. We the gleeks care about the quality of the show not the quantity. By quantity I mean how popular it is and how many fans it gets. [Ryan Murphy] please I beg you to listen to your fan base. If it weren't for us, Glee would never be what it is today.
** This ties right into my previous post trying to explain to Beliebers that we are defending our show & want high quality talent. It's a matter of opinion, and obviously it's a wide-spread opinion that the GLEEmunity does NOT want him on. Sure there are many that do not like him. He annoys me, but that has nothing to do with the fact that he just isn't a good fit for GLEE. I will be truly disappointed if Fox & Ryan Murphy actually let this happen. Thank you ItsAGleekThing for your thoughts. Very valid points indeed.

#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

If It's a Dream...Don't Wake Colfer
From Cherie Burbach at www.wetpaint.com/glee:
They were grandmother and granddaughter in The Princess Diaries films, and now Julie Andrews and Anne Hathaway may reunite on Glee. If all goes as planned, Andrews would play Kurt's grandmother, and Hathaway would be his aunt.
Chris Colfer has been pushing for this dream team for months now. He recently dished to E!'s Kristin Dos Santos, "I'm pretty sure I've been obnoxious enough now that [Julie Andrews] knows that I want her. I think they just have to write it for her … And Anne Hathaway wants to play my lesbian aunt. I'm all for that. Could you imagine a family with myself, Mike O'Malley, Julie Andrews, and Anne Hathaway? That's one hell of a family."
If Glee does score the dynamic duo, it'll be quite the coup; Hathaway is a busy girl these days — The Love and Other Drugs star is slated to co-host the 2011 Oscars!

Superbowl Spoilers!!!
From Christopher Rosen at www.wetpaint.com/glee:
OMGlee. After months of speculation, we finally have confirmation on the songs Glee will perform during the Super Bowl episode, which airs February 6, 2011. As a bonus, we've included several delectable deets on the episode itself. Spoilerphobes, avoid the rest of this post at all costs!
SPOTTED: The cast of Glee filming scenes on a football field on Thursday, December 9. But wait — is that Lea Michele in uniform? While Chris Colfer and Darren Criss cheered on the team from the stands, Chord Overstreet and Cory Monteith were joined on the field by the pint-sized star herself. After Finn's rejection of her on "A Very Glee Christmas," could this be Rachel's attempt to finally get him back for good?
For spoiler-lovers, here you go!
Katy Perry - "California Gurls," performed by Brittany, Santana, Quinn, and the Cheerios
Lady Antebellum - "Need You Now," performed by Puck and Rachel
Michael Jackson/Yeah Yeah Yeahs - "Thriller"/"Heads Will Roll" (mashup), performed by New Directions (minus Quinn, Birttany, and Santana, who are away at a Cheerios competition) during halftime in a McKinley High football game
Destiny's Child - "Bills, Bills, Bills," performed by Blaine, Kurt, and the Dalton Academy Warblers
Another song that might make it into the eppy is "Meet Me Halfway" by The Black Eyed Peas
As if that wasn't enough, here's a roundup of more episode-related teasers:
- The episode will feature two new football player characters, Scott Cooper and Strando (played by Kody Batchelor), as well as a cameo by Katie Couric, who interviews Sue Sylvester for the "Biggest Loser of the Year" award. (Sue assumes she's received "Most Fascinating Person of the Year" honors, but that accolade goes to Barbara Walters instead.)
- Sue will attempt to lure Brittany into a cannon.
- Finn and Rachel do not reunite... at least not in this episode.
- McKinley High comes down with a serious case of Super Bowl fever due to the Cheerleading Regionals.
- Kurt and Karofsky will have another showdown.
- Coach Beiste recruits Rachel, Tina, and Mercedes for the football team, and she also forces the team to join glee.

Paltrow Goes Old School on GLEE
From Terri Schwartz at www.hollywoodcrush.mtv.com:
This is the stuff the "Random Yet Notable" category was created for. You probably already knew that Gwyneth Paltrow will be guest-starring on an upcoming episode of "Glee." But did you know her substitute teacher character will be dressing up as Abraham Lincoln's wife Mary Todd Lincoln and singing a showtune from "Chicago"? Seriously. We have it on good authority from "Glee" creator Ryan Murphy, who was quoted in the Wall Street Journal's entertainment blog Speakeasy.
We won't find out until the episode airs what this whole Mrs. Abraham Lincoln thing is all about, but it got us thinking about other intriguing historical figures that we'd like to see get their moment on "Glee." Since New Directions rocked that amazing Lady Gaga episode, we know they're game.
Cleopatra
Easily one of the most kickass women in history, Cleopatra was a colorful personality and a total man-killer. Sounds to me like a good opportunity for Santana to take centerstage.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Napoleon was one of history's most powerful men, and one of the smallest. For some reason, I can just picture Kurt being able to use a history lesson on Napoleon (while in costume, of course), to get across one of "Glee's" moral lessons.
Rosa Parks
She's more of a modern historical figure than anyone else on this list, but Rosa Parks is easily one of the most recognizable faces in the fight for racial equality. And since there's bound to be a "Glee" episode dealing with racial diversity, why not let Mercedes reenact Rosa's famous bus rebellion?
Vlad the Impaler
Halloween is coming up, and—surprise, surprise—vampires are still all the rage, so you can't tell me there isn't some way to incorporate the man who inspired the creation of Dracula into the show. Just toss in a song from "Forgetting Sarah Marshall"'s Dracula puppet musical, and they're set.
Louisa May Alcott
So what if we have a soft spot in our hearts for the author of "Little Women"? She was an important figure during the Civil War era just like Mary Todd Lincoln, and a big proponent of women's rights. We see her included in a Girl Power! episode (as long as the Spice Girls are represented 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.

Criss to Cross-over to be With Colfer?
From Michael Ausiello @ www.ausiellofiles.com
The plot surrounding Kurt’s first boyfriend on Glee thickens: Actor-singer-songwriter Darren Criss—best known to TV audiences as Matt Dallas’ bro on Eastwick—has landed the much-talked-about new gay role on the Fox phenom.
But will he have eyes for Kurt? Maybe. Maybe not. Allow me to explain…
Per a Glee source, Criss’ character, Blaine—a cute and charismatic gay student from a rival Glee club named the Dalton Academy Warblers—will maintain a strictly platonic friendship with McKinley High’s most out and proud pupil. But could that change as the season progresses? Yes, it could.
Sounds to me like series creator Ryan Murphy is keeping his options open.
Ever since Murphy announced that Kurt would be getting a love interest in season 2, speculation about the identity of his suitor has run rampant. The casting of pretty boy Chord Overstreet led some to speculate that his quarterback character Sam would play that role, a theory Chris Colfer all but shot down when he informed us that there’s no sign of romantic tension between Sam and Kurt in the first four episodes. “Maybe it is too obvious,” he theorized. “Our writers have a way of avoiding the obvious and throwing curveballs.”

The group’s spoof, A Very Potter Musical, went viral and turned Criss (who plays the title role) into a bit of an Internet star.

Yeah! What About That?
From Kristin Dos Santos at www.eonline.com's Watch with Kristin:
So you still like the Glee, do you? Twelve million fans tuned in for the season-two premiere last night, but by the looks of our mailbag, the episode left some of you with questions about the comings and goings at New Directions. So, who's who, and what's to come? We've got your answers right here!
What happened to Matt, aka Shaft, aka "copresident of the background dancers union"?
As Mr. Shue mentioned in passing, Matt (Dijon Talton) has transferred schools, dropping the glee club's membership down to just 11. Of course, what actually happened is a little something we like to call "writers' room Darwinism." After Glee blew up into a global phenomenon, all of the onetime background characters (Santana, Brittany, Mike Chang) that could be evolved into frontline characters got promoted. Poor Matt was deemed unfit by the evolutionary forces of "story," so he was eliminated. Here's hoping that Dijon Talton goes on to many other great things in the future and the story of how he was let go from Glee becomes just a hilarious anecdote about his rise to fame and personal fulfillment. Good luck, Dijon!
What happened to Coach Ken Tanaka?
Tanaka (Patrick Gallagher) had a nervous breakdown and quit—no doubt because Emma (Jayma Mays) broke his heart. Producers never explained publicly why they switched out their football coaches, but presumably Tanaka was no longer needed as a romantic rival for Mr. Shue. And heck, how could the writers resist giving Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch) a Beiste-ly new female football coach to mock?
Who the heck is Charice anyway?
What? You're not hip to Filipina pop stars?! Jeez. OK then, Charice Pempengco is an 18-year-old YouTube sensation who has released two hit albums and appeared on Oprah'sWorld's Most Talented Kids show. You can watch the video for her single "Pyramid" here, and follow her on Twitter @OfficialCharice.
Will Wicked costars Idina Menzel or Kristin Chenoweth be back?
Menzel's character, Shelby Corcoran, resigned as coach of rival glee club Vocal Adrenaline to spend more time with adopted daughter Beth (Puck and Quinn's biological child), but luckily Cheyenne Jackson (who was hilarious last year as Canadian import Danny Baker on 30 Rock) is stepping into her shoes. FYI, you can follow Cheyenne on Twitter at @cheyguynyc, should you so desire. Meanwhile, Kristin Chenoweth is shooting another installment of Glee in just two short weeks!
Hello, Chord Overstreet! You're too pretty not to be dating someone. So who will it be?
@ChordOverstreet himself has played coy on this question for months; Jane Lynch suggested that he'd be hooking up with Chris Colfer's Kurt Hummel; but there's also talk that he could be getting with Quinn, and Dianna Agron told us at the premiere party, "What do we know other than the cheerleader and the footballer?" Huh. Well, we can only hope that Sam is bisexual and that he'll be dating both Quinn and Kurt (at different times, presumably).

Yet Another Guest Appearance...
From Daily Mail Reporter at www.dailymail.co.uk:
It's one of the most popular shows on TV, winning countless awards and a steadily growing fanbase.
And now it looks as if Gwyneth Paltrow is in talks to guest star in season two of the hit show.
The 37-year-old year old is in discussions to play a love interest for Matthew Morrison's character Will Schuester.
Dot Jones and Jane Lynch
According to sources involved with the show, Gwyneth will star in two episodes airing in November.
When Will gets sick, Gwyneth's substitute teacher will take over the glee club
Complications arise when the Will starts to fall for the popular new teacher, causing tension in his relationship with Emma, played by Jayma Mays.
E! Online reports that the role was written especially for Gwyneth, by her friend and Glee creator Ryan Murphy.
The actress will sing and dance in her episodes, which will begin shooting in two weeks if she agrees to take part.
And she should have no problems at all with singing, after all the practise she got in new movie Country Strong, which opens in December.
Gwyneth Paltrow
New promo pictures released by Fox show Jane Lynch's character Sue Sylvester with new nemesis Coach Beiste, played by Dot Jones.
And it looks like Couch Beist will be more than a match for tough-talking Sue Sylvester.
Lynch appeared on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night to talk about the new season.
She said: 'I love this character. The pathos is just amazing. She wears red lipstick, and then every once in a while, you see tears going down her cheeks.
'Her feelings get hurt very easily, and so of course, Sue Sylvester goes after her.'

Oh The Horror!
Sorry it's been a while since I've posted anything GLEEks...but this one I couldn't wait to post!!
From Kevin Fitzpatrick at www.ugo.com:
Just when you thought the list of guest stars coming to your TV this fall couldn't get any bigger, we've learned at least one picture show will be filled with horror.
In addition to the news from Comic-Con that at the behest of Chris Colfer (Kurt), Ryan Murphy had agreed to do an episode paying tribute to The Rocky Horror Picture Show, we've learned that so far at least two original cast members have signed on. Actor Barry Bostwick (Brad Majors) and former music-man Meat Loaf (Eddie, Ex-Delivery Boy) will appear in the October 26th, and likely Halloween-themed episode.
Bostwick and Loaf will play TV station managers with "an interesting proposal" for Sue Sylvester. While no additional deals have been signed, E! also reports that former cast member Susan Sarandon has an interest in participating in the episode. Could Tim Curry be far behind?
The news of these guest-stars follows Glee's already impressive guest-roster of John Stamos, Susan Boyle and Britney Spears herself for a tribute episode entitled "Brittany Britney."
** YEA!! Rocky Horror for Halloween!!! **

How #MJonGLEE Should Go
Will is still pining for Emma & wants to change so he sings "Man in the Mirror" & gets inspired to assign the New Directions the coveted Michael Jackson songs for the week.
Quinn & Mercedes have a fight about Quinn's attitude &/or Quinn is fighting Sue & Santana about the Cheerios ("Scream"). Sue & Santana continue to stand their ground...along with Brittany ("Bad" or "Beat It" & Figgins can dance to it - LOL).
Kurt is fighting with the new chick about his sexuality & getting down about the fact she can't deal with him ("Smile").
Rachael is still fighting Jacob about his stupid blog full of rumors ("Just Leave Me Alone" - actually Quinn can sing this to Sue & Santana). Puck just fights everyone (The one Sue & Santana don't use or "Smooth Criminal"). Jessie shows up & wants Rachael & sings "Do You Remember the Time"; Finn reminds Rachael how he feels about her w/ "The Way You Make Me Feel". Artie fights Mike for Tina ("The Girl is Mine" along with Will & the dentist...and maybe Jessie & Finn for Rachael).
The New Directions sing "Thriller" in the auditorium & the Cheerios dance it in the gym while Sue sports a Jackson-ized tracksuit.
By the end, most everyone comes together with "I'll Be There" at the end of the episode.
Will still struggles to get Emma...

Even More Superbowl Episode Rumors...
From Christopher Rosen at GLEEtastic.com:
There has been so much speculation about which big-name star is going to have their music featured on the post-Super Bowl episode of Glee that it's a bit dizzying — take your pick from rumored choices Beyonce, The Beatles, Prince, Michael Jackson, Billy Joel, and Elvis. But finally a Glee castmember has come out and announced who she wants! Take it away Lea Michele:
“I think they are saving Justin Timberlake for the Super Bowl episode. They have to be, because he is so perfect for our show. He has to be on it! When I met Jessica Biel, like a loser, I asked her to tell Justin to come on our show (laughs). She was a little taken aback and said, ‘Um, OK. I’ll tell him.’ If not Justin, I would hope it would be the sequel to the Madonna episode. She has so many more amazing songs we didn’t even touch.”
More Madonna would be fun, but JT would be pretty great. Also, it's comforting to know that Lea is a giant dork in real life. If we met Jessica Biel we'd probably say something similar... well, after picking our jaws up off the floor!

If you've watched television in the last couple of years, you've probably seen Sarah Drew somewhere. The Everwood star has appeared on Mad Men, Private Practice. and, of course, Grey's Anatomy. She'll be back on Grey's in a full-time capacity this year — but that doesn't mean she can't stop by another show that she's associated with: Glee!
That's right, Gleeks: According to E!, Sarah will make a return appearance on Glee as Suzy Pepper — Rachel's nemesis and the girl who had a major, major crush on Mr. Schuester. So she gets to see McDreamy and Mr. Schue IRL? Talk about good career choices!

GLEEful Bieber Invite?
From Hilton Hater at thehollywoodgossip.com:
Britney Spears is booked for an appearance on Glee.
Might Justin Bieber follow in her (kinda trashy) footsteps?
In an interview with Access Hollywood this week, series creator Ryan Murphy was asked if he'd entertain the idea of Bieber on his Fox hit? The enthusiastic reply, according to TV Fanatic:
"I think he's so phenomenally talented and I think he's great. So, yes, if he was interested I would make that happen... the [cast sings] his stuff all day long. They sing 'Baby.'"
In just its first season, Glee showcased big-name guest stars such as Kristin Chenoweth, Neil Patrick Harris, Idina Menzel and Molly Shannon. John Stamos and Carol Burnett have already signed on for season two appearances.
