Recently Glee star Dianna Agron gave some sneak peeks on shooting for both Glee and the upcoming film “I am Number Four”, which she is filming at the same time. “It was so much fun,” she told the press after the Hollywood Breakthrough Awards last week. The star said that she went directly from finishing her latest tour to immediately reporting to the set of “Number Four”. Dianna said she’s simply thankful that both crews and respective producers were able to work on scheduling and the days she needed to be on either set. She was also asked about upcoming cameos on Glee and she revealed that she’s super excited to be working with Britney Spears. “I don’t really know too many details about what that specifies but I’m very excited,” Dianna said.

Executive Producer Brad Flachuk, while attending the same award show, mentioned that Britney’s performance and appearance on Glee is more of an homage. Mr. Flachuk, explained, “It’s honoring her and what she means to a whole generation of both girls and boys and her amazing music which is as catchy as it gets.”

Another rumor the star was asked to divulge some scoopage on was that of Justin Bieber, and the possibility of him being on the show, which Agron mentioned, “I just heard this rumor the other day. We have so many rumors of people that might be coming on our story lines. I often don’t know if they are real or fake. I don’t know.” Producer Flachuk also added on the Bieber rumors that, “It’s as if there is a campaign for Justin Bieber to be on Glee or if we have been talking about it. We really haven’t been talking about it.” Flachuk further explained that he wants the attention and the laser sharp focus to be on his own stars, and not have a situation where there is a guest star and celebrity being brought onto every week’s episode.  We agree and we wish the Glee star, cast and producers the best on Emmy Night, but it’s really not like they need it!

Also in the campaign are Cassie, Twilight actor Alex Meraz and 90210’s Trevor Donovan. “The great thing about Op is that it is very accessible. You can grab it at Walmart,” Cory shared. “The looks are original and affordable.”

Showing off her good looks, Jessica Szohr took part in the “Rock Your Shine” marketing campaign for Ocean Pacific. Decked out in a variety of sexy swimwear, the “Gossip Girl” hottie was joined in the ad spot by fellow young stars including Cassie, Dianna Agron, Cory Monteith, Alex Meraz and Trevor Donovan. Talking about the Op offerings, Miss Szohr told press, “The latest trend for spring is shine and Op has it first. The clothes are so great; especially the amazing bikinis and shorts.” Meanwhile, Jessica and her fellow Op ad participants will get together to host a party on behalf of the campaign in Los Angeles in late April.

Rolling Stone’s Erik Hedegaard ventures into the Fox hit’s most controversial corners, uncovering the stories behind stolen car stereos, illegal substances, Facebook-revenge fantasies and more in our new issue, on sale at newsstands today.Glee creator Ryan Murphy, who previously helmed Nip/Tuck, explains the show’s double-edged appeal: “It’s about there being great joy to being different, and great pain.”

Twenty-three-year-old Lea Michele, the Broadway talent who plays Rachel, tells Hedegaard about her tattoos, and Cory Monteith, who portrays jock Finn, owns up to a few childhood arrests for offenses that “didn’t hurt people.” Dianna Argon (slippery cheerleader Quinn) describes what it was like joining the cast late and falling victim to Monteith’s fart pranks, and 19-year-old Chris Colfer, who bravely plays gay teen Kurt, opens up about his own painful youth and his never-changing voice.

“You know that forget-and-forgive bullshit? No, no, no, no, not for me,” he says of channeling childhood traumas into creative energy. “You take that grudge and let that grudge fester, and then you use it.”

The only Glee cast member who threatens to traumatize Hedegaard is Jane Lynch, who channels her ferocious character Sue Sylvester to warn him against asking “stupid questions” (guess nobody wanted to chat about peeing in the shower!). Rolling Stone movie critic Peter Travers saw a softer side of Lynch when she stopped by the office recently for an Off the Cuff chat — watch it here.

Question: So last we saw, all the secrets were all out. Can you talk at all about when we pick up what’s going on for you guys?

Dianna Agron: Quinn’s still pregnant and moving toward having that baby, and she is focusing on other things. She’s not down on herself; she’s not focused on feeling sorry for me, myself and I. It’s about moving past it in a healthy and strong way and being present in high school and these newfound friends. You’re really seeing all these characters who we’ve nicely set up who they are in these first thirteen [episodes], and so we get to come back and play. People know who these people are, so let’s show them more and let’s really get into it. And that’s what we’re doing, and it’s so fun. I think everyone will be really, really happy with where things are.

Q: Finn found out the truth and was furious with her, so where is Quinn living now?

Agron: She’s not in a box on the side of the street, I promise you. [Laughs] Quinn wouldn’t like that. She likes to dress nicely and be well groomed even though her stomach is growing. No, everywhere we left off is where we pick back up again.

Q: Are you happy to be rid of the cheerleader outfit?

Agron: I am very happy. It’s a cold place. The cheerleading outfit is a cold place. There’s not much fabric, and I wasn’t a cheerleader in high school, so I kinda fulfilled that in the first thirteen [episodes]. Or not even the first thirteen; the first six. Who knows, she might be back; I might be cold again. But right now I’m enjoying the dresses.

Q: Besides the Madonna episode, what are you really excited about in the second half of the first season?

Agron: Gosh, we have some amazing guest stars coming. Olivia Newton John… Amazing. I mean, I don’t know if you guys grew up with Grease, but I certainly grew up with Grease. And, yeah, Idina Menzel is coming,who I can’t wait to meet. Lea Michele knows her very, very well. And Kristin [Chenoweth] is coming back, who I adore. Everything’s so exciting

Q: Who would be your dream guest star?

Agron: Christopher Walken. I’m telling you… I have said this. This might be the fiftieth time I’ve said this, so I’m just gonna keep saying it and keep saying it. It might never happen, but I’m gonna keep saying it. I think he’d be amazing. He’s so funny. He can dance so well; I’m sure that he can sing as well as he can dance, and I’m convinced that he would be perfect.

Q: Are you excited to have Joss Whedon directing an episode?

Agron: Yes, I love Joss. You know, it was so funny, because we were joking around when we had met him and said, “Why aren’t you coming over to Glee? I hope that you direct an episode.” And he responded with, “I hope I direct an episode, as well.” Then we found out weeks later that it had been in the works, and it was official. It was so wonderful. And on top of that, we have all the directors that we love, of the first thirteen, coming back. It’s good when you know you’re in such safe hands. We trust them so much, and we’ve seen what they’ve done for our show and our characters up until now, and this world of Glee can be very fun but very quirky. The show is definitely in a very specific area where if you don’t know that are very well, you might not get it and you might miss stuff. So we’re very lucky that all these people are coming back and that we have such an amazing creative team.

Q: Is there a musical number you’ve done that’s a favorite?

Agron: Up until now? I would say “Somebody To Love” because we did that at the Upfronts, and that was the first “Wow, this is actually happening” moment for me. Just being in New York and seeing the billboards and seeing the huge balloons… Glee was everywhere in New York that weekend. You almost feel like it’s a dream. You’re staying in this beautiful hotel, and everywhere you can see are advertisements for your show. It’s the, “Pinch me! Pinch me all day long,” type of thing.

Glee returns April 13th on FOX.
