Jane Lynch to Cameo on iCarly

Filed under Glee TV Show News, Jane Lynch, Pictures by Tinkers on 03-07-2010


Everyone’s favorite Sue Sylvester will be making an appearance on Nickelodeon’s teen hit, iCarly! Jane Lynch is said to be taking on the role of Sam (played by Jennette McCurdy)’s mother, who no one’s seen yet but everyone knows exists. Kinda like Rachel’s two dads. When are we seeing them?!

The episode, which films next week, will be a part of iCarly’s third season. Apparently, even Jane’s stepdaughter Haden is pumped for this cameo; she’s such a big iCarly fan that the Nickelodeon show was even referenced in her mom’s wedding vows!

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!”

Jane Lynch Marries Longtime Girlfriend

Filed under Glee Cast & Crew, Jane Lynch by Dena on 01-06-2010

Sue Sylvester may not have yet found true love on Glee but Jane Lynch, most definitely has! Multiple sources have confirmed that Jane has finally wed her longtime girlfriend Lara Embry. Their vows were exchanged at the Blue Heron Restaurant in Sunderland, Massachusetts on Monday, May 31st. Massachusetts is one of the 5 states that allow same-sex marriage.

It was a small ceremony with 21 guests who feasted on their choice of duck or sea bass. The cake, a very important part of any wedding, was a 3-tiered vanilla cake with chocolate mousse filling. The infamous Glee star confirmed the pending nuptials back in April.

Our congratulations goes out to Miss Lynch and her new bride!

Interviews with the Hilarious Jane Lynch

Filed under Glee Interviews, Jane Lynch by Rob on 16-01-2010

Jane LynchThere have been some fun interviews with Jane Lynch (who is officially one of my favorite people) on a few different sites, so here’s a roundup with three of them! I’ve included excerpts to help you pick and choose which you’d like to read. Enjoy! :)

TV.com talked with Jane Lynch, saying she is “the Nicest Person Ever”. Aww! Jane answers some questions about what it’s like to play Sue, her upcoming musical number on Glee and potentially branching out from just comedy.

On playing Sue: “I always say when I put on that track suit, I have a license to say anything I want. I think it’s probably very good therapy, because I’m a much nicer person at home. I get it all out at work, and that kind of contemptuousness and heinous behavior is just very shallowly below the surface for me, so it’s kind of nice.”
On Sue’s upcoming musical number: “It’s kind of a dream come true because I love to sing. I got to sing in A Mighty Wind… It’s not as easy as one thinks. You have to be right on pitch-wise and you have to be right on time-wise, and I always thought I was very good at those things, but according to Adam [Anders, Glee's musical producer] I am not. He had to direct me several times.”

Ask Ausiello Spoilers from Jane Lynch

Filed under Glee Episode Spoilers by Rob on 17-12-2009

Michael Ausiello of EW.com’s The Ausiello Files has some fun spoilers from Glee‘s Jane Lynch. Nothing major, but it’ll give you a few more reasons why the wait until April will be worth it.

Question: For the record, I totally agree with your assessment of the Golden Globe nominations — Jim Parsons and John Noble are disgustingly absent and it makes me angry. Okay, so onto my question: I am dying for some Glee scoop since I have to wait until April for new episodes! —Sara

Ausiello: The phrase Best. News. Ever. gets used a lot around these parts, but this truly is the Best. News. Ever: Jane Lynch’s campaign to snag a musical moment on the show has ended in victory! “I have read the first two episodes [of the back-nine] and I can tell you that I will be singing and dancing,” Lynch reveals. “I can’t tell you what I’m singing because it’s top-secret.” Just a little hint? Teases Lynch: “It’s a very cold song.” We wouldn’t have it any other way!

Question: As the mother of an absolutely beautiful and wonderful daughter with Down syndrome, I was thrilled to see the characters of Becky and Sue’s sister in Glee’s “Wheels” episode. Any chance these characters will be back? —Cathy

Ausiello: “I hear that that will happen, yes,” confirms Jane Lynch of her TV sis’ return. “I haven’t read anything yet, but I heard that’s in the works for somewhere in the next nine episodes.”

Jane Lynch was on The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien on November 17th. She talked some about her role on Glee, making up funny songs, making Carol Burnett laugh, getting $500 worth of Andy Richter’s parking tickets, and karate chopping throw pillows. I think she could be the funniest person alive.
