Believe or not, but I used to enjoy Glee . Yes, I once watched every week as a group of singer/actors lip-synced to various modern pop hits. However, I recently stopped as the quality of the show took a dive. Every new episode this season seemed like previous ones. The story arc of Sue Sylvestor and Will finally getting along would begin one week, but then Sue would be right after the Glee kids the next week. To make up for the horrible writing, Glee began to compensate with themed [...]

After doling out advice on The Voice , Adam Levine believes he can shape a star off camera, too. The Maroon 5 frontman has announced the launch of his own record label, 222 Records, and his first signee is Glee star Matthew Morrison. "Starting my own label has been a long-time goal of mine and I am thrilled to be at the point in my career where it is finally happening," Levine said. "I am excited for everyone to hear Matthew's forthcoming album. Great things are in store for him with [...]

Don't watch Glee anymore but the SANTANA is the only one that still excites me when I skim over the weekly songs they perform. Because I'm a human, the RICKY MARTIN generally just matters. Check the two homosexuals covering LA ISLA BONITA via this week's eps ..

Last night, Ricky Martin tangoed his way onto the top of our list of favorite Glee guest stars ever, playing Spanish language teacher (and former "tooth model") Mr. Martinez. In addition to performing "Sexy And I Know It" , the Puerto Rican superstar and the show's resident Latina Naya Rivera performed a duet of Madonna's 1987 single "La Isla Bonita". Ricky and Naya are en fuego during their number, but the real draw is to watch Mr. Schuester squirm in his seat as he faces the fact that his skills as both a Spanish teacher [...]

The cast of Glee take on some of the King of Pop's classic tunes.

In the upcoming Glee episode "The Spanish Teacher", Mr. Schuester — himself, a Spanish teacher, unless you forgot he did anything else at McKinley besides get way too involved in his students' personal lives — feels threatened by the new foreign language teacher played by Ricky Martin . And those feelings of inferiority are completely warranted, as Ricky gives us some much needed sizzle in his choir room cover of LMFAO's "Sexy And I Know It" . The dancing is top notch, and there's even a cameo by a faux-Shufflebot! Watch below. [...]

Sorry — what was that? We could barely hear you over the locomotive that is the Madonna Train roaring through Planet Pop at 140 mph. The Queen truly soared and thrilled over the past seven days, but the week wasn't without heartbreak, as a bona fide R&B pioneer from the television world met a tragic end. Thankfully we had the Michael Jackson episode of Glee , the rise of UK gents The Wanted and the rad return of Garbage to ease the pain. See how all these music players ranked on our weekly Pop & Fizz hype [...]

It's been some time since we've seen Ricky Martin shakes his bon bons, but the singer will more than make up for lost time when he guest stars on an upcoming episode of Glee . The Viva Glam spokesperson will perform two numbers in the episode (titled "The Spanish Teacher"), with one being a choir room performance of LMFAO's #1 single "Sexy And I Know It", which he sings en espanol . Thank you, Ricky, for teaching us to be sexy in two languages — even if you declined to do so while [...]

Did You Hear? :: For those who delight in seeing gay relationships given the chance to bloom on air, get ready for some serious make-out action between Santana and Brittany on Glee . Naya Rivera and Heather Morris' session of tonsil hockey will take place on the Valentine's Day episode, and is described as "sweet and it's romantic and it will satisfy fans." [ E! Online ] :: We showed you the best Super Bowl halftime shows of all time — now check out the worst. [...]

Glee 's Michael Jackson tribute episode (cleverly titled "Michael") aired last night, and it featured a mish-mosh of a cappella versions, faithful covers and reenactments of several classic MJ videos. (There were also cellos, eye patches and Finchel duets filling the relatively plot-less episode right to the brim.) It was all a bunch of silliness to capitalize not only on the current IMMORTAL World Tour Cirque Du Soleil show traveling the country (referenced seconds after the episode began!), but Jackson's continuing popularity. Watch a few of the musical numbers below. [...]

I have a hate hate like love hate thing for Glee , which I think is on the slide. Occasionally, however, they nail it. Like this arrangement /performance of Smooth Criminal... Naya Rivera is a star, period. The whole thing - cellos to chairs to vocals - is perfect. This isn't totally down to the genius of Glee producers. Idolator makes the point [...]

Still not chooned into season 3 of Glee butt perhaps I'll swing via next week's US episode cause the RICKY MARTIN is heading to William McKinley High. Here's a preview of next week's 'The Spanish Teacher' featuring the MARTIN and that Naya better get her hands of me ex-he-lover thnx.

As Glee draws closer to its Michael Jackson tribute show (make sure you tweet accordingly with the #GleeHee hashtag), the musical dramedy has teased us with another selection from Tuesday's episode. Naya Rivera pays homage to the original music video for "Smooth Criminal" with a fedora and zoot suit jacket, though she stays clear of attempting MJ's signature anti-gravity lean . Instead, Dalton Academy's Sebastian and McKinley's fiercest creature circle two cellists in what looks like the most low stakes round of musical chairs ever. Watch below. [...]

Darren Criss obviously knows how to dance — after all, he had to show off his moves nightly during his three-week run in the Broadway show How To Succeed — but we had no idea he knew how to dance . Blaine is the lead Gleek in this performance clip of "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'", from Glee 's upcoming tribute episode to Michael Jackson, and we have to say, he fills the Gloved One's shoes pretty well. Watch Darren take on the King of Pop below. [...]

As if you weren't already aware that Darren Criss' star power has eclipsed most if not all of his Glee castmates: on Sunday, Darren made his final performance playing J. Pierrepont Finch in the musical How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying , and he proved quite a box-office hit during his three weeks on Broadway. The show earned approximately $1.3 million per week Criss took the stage, giving the musical three of its most lucrative weeks during its 11-month run. During his final curtain call, [...]

Glee 's Naya Rivera was living it up in Las Vegas for her birthday once again . "Getting ready to celebrate at @1OakLV! So excited!" the FHM cover girl tweeted before heading out to the Mirage Hotel's 1 Oak nightclub. While it certainly wasn't as skimpy as some of her 2011 ensembles, Naya's lavender dress still spelled S-E-X-Y. Check out the Adele mash-up minx as she tears up Sin City for her 25th birthday, then tell us below (or on Facebook or Twitter ) [...]

Well, hi there! We've made it to the end of the week, so I hope you have some big fun planned for the weekend.

We've met practically every Glee character's parents besides Rachel's two gay dads, who have been alluded to on the show since the pilot but have yet to actually appear. Finally, we will get to meet Mr. and Mr. Berry — Jeff Goldblum and Broadway veteran Brian Stokes Mitchell will play Rachel's two adoptive fathers, Hiram and LeRoy Berry. Both Goldblum and Mitchell will sing on the Valentine's Day episode, which is titled "Heart". Mitchell has appeared in many Broadway shows over the years, including Ragtime, Man Of La Mancha, Jelly's Last [...]
