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!
