The ULTIMATE Season 2 Spoiler Round-Up!

Filed under Glee Cast & Crew, Glee Episode Spoilers, Glee Guest Stars, Glee TV Show News by Tinkers on 04-08-2010

I now present to you, a HUGE HUGE round-up of every Season 2 spoiler you could ever need in your life! If you haven’t been keeping track of all the interviews, press events, panels, and just general hype, have no fear! This post is brought to you by TheGLEEkSpot’s tumblr, with the latest news added!

New Characters:

  • Kurt gets a boyfriend. An “everyday guy.” He’s going to be struggling with his sexuality and Kurt is going to help him through this. Ryan wants them to be prom king and prom king. This plot line is apparently delayed past the first few episodes.*
  • A christian country singer (a la Carrie Underwood) is supposed to come on. No word on how big this role is going to be. She’s also supposed to have a pretty big problem with Kurt and his boyfriend being gay.
  • Sam Elliot will be played by Chord Overstreet. Sam is a football player. Finn will take Sam under his wing, and will utlimately become Finn’s rival. He will also have a special relationship with Quinn.
  • Mercedes gets a love interest, too. A “male version of herself” (Can you say killer duets?)
  • Charice will be guest starring as a foreign exchange student and a rival to Rachel. Her character, Sunshine, will start out very small but as the season progresses she will get bigger. Charice starts filiming on July 28th with the rest of the cast, so she will be in the first episode.
  • Dot Jones will playing Shannon Beiste (pronounced BEEST) the new football coach, replacing Ken Tanaka, who will no longer be on Glee.
  • Cheyenne Jackson will be replacing Idina Menzel’s role as the new coach of Vocal Adrenaline. This will be a major, recurring role.
  • John Stamos will have a recurring role as Emma’s dentist boyfriend.
  • Javier Bardem will appear as a rock star who befriends Artie. “We’re going to rock the house,” the 41-year-old Gleek tells EW. “We’re going to do some heavy metal — Spanish heavy metal, which is the worst.”
  • Comedy legend Carol Burnett is said to be in the works for the role of Sue Sylvester’s Nazi-hunting mother. Nothing is confirmed yet, but really, how could they pass up Carol Burnett?

*They’re saying that Sam Elliot is NOT Kurt’s boyfriend. Our theory? They’re pulling back on all the hype so Sam can have a surprise “coming out” moment. The same way Idina being Rachel’s mother was a surprise.

Glee Attendees at Comic-Con 2010

Filed under Glee Cast & Crew, Glee Events by Tinkers on 24-06-2010

Glee will once again be attending the San Diego Comic-Con! Since last year’s panel, Glee has exploded into an international phenomenon, winning at the Golden Globes, SAG awards, and People’s Choice Awards, just to name a few. The fanbase has exploded, twitter accounts gaining thousands of followers, and the actors have become household names. Some people questioned why Glee first came to the five-day long convention, but their return to Comic-Con was all but imminent. This year, the panel will feature actors that were absent from last year’s.

So, there’s good news and bad news. The good: Chris Colfer, Amber Riley, Jenna Ushkowitz, Kevin McHale, Mark Salling, Heather Morris, and Naya Rivera will be attending the panel and answering fan questions, alongside Brad Falchuk and Ryan Murphy. The bad: Lea Michele, Matthew Morrison, Dianna Agron and Cory Monteith will be MIA. Jane Lynch will be absent as well; apparently she had a scheduling conflict.

Now, before you take drastic measures: “Last year, we brought down Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Matthew Morrison, and Dianna Agron. Because we have such a large cast and we can’t bring everyone every year, this year we decided to bring down some of the cast who didn’t get to go last summer,” A Fox spokesperson tells Entertainment Weekly.

Makes sense, right? To quote Sue Sylvester: “We’re giving everyone a chance to be a star! Find your voice, stomp that yard, all that crap!”

Chris Colfer on The View

Filed under Chris Colfer, Glee Interviews, Videos by Rob on 01-06-2010

Chris Colfer was on The View and they talked about the sold-out concert tour, Kurt’s relationship with his father, and Chris’ advice for people who are being bullied in real life. The women of The View were amazed by his voice, especially in “Rose’s Turn.”

You can’t see it in the clip above, but Chris says that filming that scene was one of the best moments of his life. He says, “I think that there’s a certain power that an empty audience has and when I was performing that number, it was just me and the crew, and it was a really late night, and it was just awesome being able to get up there and perform and just lit up on stage.” Also, when asked who his dream guest would be, he replied, “Oh, I really want Julie Andrews to play Kurt’s grandmother.” That would be awesome!

Chris Colfer Photo Shoot with h Magazine

Filed under Chris Colfer, Pictures by Rob on 22-12-2009

Chris ColferChris Colfer recently did a photo shoot and short interview with h Magazine. The article focuses on Chris Colfer’s (as well as Kurt Hummel’s) sense of fashion. Make sure you check out all the images from their awesome photoshoot. Here’s an excerpt from the article:

Chris Colfer doesn’t want to disappoint his fans but unlike the lovable and fashionably adventurous character Kurt he plays on Fox’s hit show Glee, he won’t be caught parading around town in a translucent Dolce and Gabbana raincoat. It’s way more likely you’ll spot him shopping at the Beverly Center, enjoying some of his favorite stores. “I don’t have a lot of preference when it comes to designers but I love Banana Republic, Express, and Ben Sherman.” Chris insists that Kurt’s wardrobe definitely helps him get into the role. “Kurt’s clothes are 25 to 30 percent of his character. I’m much more of a T-shirt and jeans kind of guy but I try to keep my fashion a notch above casual…”

GleeFan Exclusive: Chris Colfer Q&A

Filed under Chris Colfer, Glee Interviews, GleeFan.com Exclusive by Rob on 28-11-2009

Chris Colfer After reading through hundreds and hundreds of questions that were sent in, Tinkers and I were able to pick 10 questions to send to Chris Colfer! I hope you enjoy the Q&A, and hopefully we can have more in the future. The entire Q&A is posted after the jump. Feel free to comment about it below!

A big thanks to Chris Colfer for being kind enough to answer our questions so quickly! :)

Q: “If the Glee cast were to ever go on an international tour, which country would you most like to visit? :D”
– Ayesha

A: How could I only pick one? England, France, and Black Forest Germany. I’d also like to go skiing on the Matterhorn in Switzerland and eat my weight in pasta in Italy. Knowing me I’d probably sneak over to Austria and find the Sound of Music filming locations.

Q: “Do you think it will feel different when you go back to filming? Will you be more nervous filming now that Glee has been so wildly successful? Is there more pressure?”
– Rose

A: Yikes, now that you mention it, there might be! We filmed the first 13 just hoping it’d be successful and hoping there would be lots of fans. I think now that we’ve found success and have seen how much the show is loved by you guys it’ll feel like what we’re doing has more purpose to it. (Insert “Purpose” from Avenue Q)

Q: “I bet it was hard, performing in a wheelchair for the majority of the episode [Wheels]! What was that like? Were you nervous about the fan reactions–especially the ones from those bound to a wheelchair themselves?”
– Jennifer

A: We all had major biceps by the time that fiasco was over! We managed to learn it in two days and film it in one! (No idea how we pulled that off!) That episode dealt with a lot of sensitive issues that I think were handled beautifully. Thankfully the feeling has been mutual with all the groups it related too.

The Glee cast recently visited ‘Extra‘ and here’s a video of an interview with Cory Monteith, Kevin McHale and Chris Colfer.

Rumors have been circulating that Monteith has been cozying up to Lea Michele, who plays Glee club star Rachel Berry — but the actor is remaining mum on the nature of their relationship.

“What rumors?” Cory says when asked about the romance whispers. “It’s incredible — as soon as people get on television, rumors pop up.” When pressed about being single, Monteith turned and asked McHale, “Are you single?” McHale responded, “I’m single if you’re single.”
