Dianna on ‘Glee’ Buzz, Bieber Rumors & Emmys

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!

Glee Gone Wild: The New Issue of Rolling Stone

The cast of Glee goes wild on the latest cover of Rolling Stone – Dianna Agron, Cory Monteith, Lea Michele, Jane Lynch, and Matthew Morrison. With its group dance numbers and earnest covers of songs like Journey’s buoyant “Don’t Stop Believin’,” Glee seems like the sunniest show on TV. But darkness lurks just barely below the surface – the series also seamlessly weaves in plots about teen pregnancy, scheming wives and the most hard-hearted cheerleading coach to ever grip a whistle.

IGN Interviews Dianna Agron

While Glee is on a long midseason hiatus, the cast and crew are hard at work with new episodes, set to debut on April 13th. Recently, I spoke to one of the show’s stars, Dianna Agron, who plays the pregnant, former cheerleader Quinn Fabray. Fabray spoke about what’s to come on the show, including the return of Kristin Chenoweth and Joss Whedon directing an upcoming episode.

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.

Glee Kids To Perform For The Obamas

Being the president’s wife apparently has its perks.

Sources confirm to me exclusively that First Lady Michelle Obama has invited the cast of Glee to perform at the annual White House Easter Egg Roll on Monday, April 5 — and, barring any last-minute glitches, they’re gonna do it!

Rumor has it Mrs. O and her daughters are big fans of the show. And since a White House gig is an offer that’s pretty darn hard to refuse, Glee’s producers did some lickety-split schedule rejiggering in order to honor the request.
