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.

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.

Give me scoop on the Glee Madonna episode. Who’s going to sing what? — Kristy
MICKEY: Forget what they’re going to sing; look at what Sue Sylvester is going to wear! As this video indicates, the Cheerios will tackle “Express Yourself” and Rachel will be wearing a “Team Finn” T-shirt when the show returns in April.

Sue in a cone bra?
The Cheerios working their pompoms in a routine to “Express Yourself”?

Curt proclaiming himself to be part of the glitterati? It sounds like the highly anticipated all-Madonna episode of Glee will have all the Gleeks dancing on “La Isla Bonita.”

Entertainment Tonight previewed a sneak peek at the Golden Globe-winning show.

The one-minute clip, which you can watch repeatedly above, also shows Jonathan Groff, more slushy throwing and more cattiness from our favorite Cheerios. By the way, those are Lea Michele’s golden pipes on “Express Yourself.”

Rumors have plagued the Internet over which songs from Madonna’s nearly 25-year catalog would be featured. Quinn (Dianna Agron) is reportedly singing “Papa Don’t Preach,” while Sue (Jane Lynch) takes on “Vogue.”

Now what could the rest of the gang take on? There would have to be some new Madonna tracks cut in for the young’uns, maybe a take on “4 Minutes,” naturally because Will (Matthew Morrison) is the resident Justin Timberlake at McKinley High, and maybe there could be a duet on one of my favorite Madonna songs, the aforementioned “La Isla Bonita” or “Get Together.”

Creator Ryan Murphy told Entertainment Weekly that the episode would be huge.

“It’s got like 10 numbers in it, and the production value is very big,” Murphy said. “We adore her and worship her, so when I’m directing, I’m always, like, ‘Do it for Madonna.’ ”

Bring it on on April 13, and please try to get the queen in the episode. We wouldn’t want her to be somewhere in the English countryside in a stately manor home, weeping.
