Eleven days until
Glee returns! Can you feel the excitement in your bones yet? (If so, better get that checked out. It could be osteoporosis. Just kidding, Gleeks are never old!)
What was my original point? Oh yeah.
Glee news and spoilers! Here ya go:
Season 2 Premiere Set List
The
Glee September 21 premiere will feature renditions of
Jay-Z's "Empire State of Mind" (group number) Lady Gaga's "Telephone"
(Charice and Lea Michele), Travie McCoy's "Billionaire" (Chord
Overstreet) and Poison's "Every Rose Has
Its Thorn" (also Chord Overstreet ... I think). The premiere will also
feature two Broadway numbers: "What I Did for Love" from
A Chorus Line and "Getting to Know You" from
The King and I, as well as "Listen" from the film version of
Dreamgirls (that's Charice again). [

"Let's Do the Time Warp Again!"... is probably what
Rocky Horror stars
Barry Bostwick and
Meat Loaf said as they signed on to participate in
Glee's
Rocky Horror Picture Show tribute episode this season. They'll play TV station managers who have an "interesting proposal" for Sue Sylvester.
Ping pong queen Susan Sarandon has also expressed an interest in jumping on the
Glee train that week. [

Speaking of a "Picture Show"...
Cory Monteith will wear a mankini in the episode, and Matthew Morrison might, too. Dammit, Janet! As if we needed
another reason to Gleek out. More details about the Halloween Horror episode: Emma (Jayma Mays) will sing "Touch-A Touch-A Touch Me," possibly to guest star John Stamos. [

More Season 2 Spoilers:Someone got a
boob job that will "put her at the bottom of the pyramid,"
Tina and Mike's romance started over the summer at "Asian camp," and
Terri will find a new man who will bring her in close proximity to Will and the Glee club. Find even more spoilers over at
TV Guide, including details about the religion-focused third episode and Brittany's new boy ... or
girlfriend.
Matthew Morrison is 3/4 Finished with His AlbumAnd it's a mix of "adult contemporary" and songs he hopes "you'll hear in the club and you can dance to." Because those go so well together. Just like Matthew Morrison and rapping ... NOT! [

The Cream of E!'s Glee Spoiler Crop:Brittany and Santana will continue their "friendship with benefits," and Matthew Morrison calls John Stamos "J-Sizzle." Hurray for homoeroticism!
Analogy Time! What Kristen Stewart is to Twilight ...Chris Colfer does NOT want to be to
Glee. And that's what he thinks will happen once the ladies see his would-be love interest, Chord Overstreet: "I feel like it's not going to happen because
all the girls are going to fall in love with him and they're not going
to want to see [him with Kurt]," he tells
Ausiello at EW. "And I don't want to be the
guy girls hate. I'm the gay guy the girls
love. I don't want to
become the target. I don't want the letters that say, 'Kurt needs to
get off our man. Stop kissing our boyfriend.' Young girls can be
vicious. I don't want to know how Kristen Stewart feels. I don't want to
be the Bella of the
Glee world. I like being the guy everyone likes." Don't worry, Chris. Especially with the addition of John Stamos, your show's got enough man-candy to go around.
