Glee Prepares Second Britney Tribute!

 

Looks like Fox is super excited about Britney's new pairing with X-Factor, which according to EW has led to the writers of Glee scrambling to whip up another Britney Spears tribute. The alleged second homage is set to take place during the second episode of the fourth season, which will be airing during around the same time as Britney's X-Factor stint. It will include 8 different Britney classics!

Check out the article from EW below!

Yesterday, Fox announced that pop superstar Britney Spears would be joining their reality competition The X-Factor as a judge and that Glee would follow X-Factor‘s results show on Thursdays.

Now comes even more exciting Britney/Glee news: EW has exclusively learned that Glee is planning a second Britney Spears tribute for the fall! Set to be the second episode of the series’ fourth season, this hour homage to Brit Brit will feature eight of her songs but won’t focus on the character of Brittany (Heather Morris) as the first tribute did (Spears is not scheduled to appear in the episode as of now but producers are hoping to work out a deal). The reason for the Spears hour is because the network is so excited about the pairing of a Spears/X-Factor with Glee on Thursday nights. It also certainly doesn’t hurt that the original Britney tribute, which aired early in the second season, is still one of Glee’s highest-rated episode to date.
In other Glee news, Chris Colfer let it slip today on Live! With Kelly that the newly announced guest-star Sarah Jessica Parker would be playing Kurt’s mentor on the fourth season. EW has now learned that Kate Hudson, the other big star set for a Glee arc next season, will be playing a similar mentor-type role to Rachel Berry (Lea Michele). Hudson’s role will have her singing but will also be very dance-heavy, which the actress should be able to easily handle as evidenced by her performance in the movie musical Nine.

How exciting! What songs do you want to see performed?

I'm hoping for "Till the World Ends," "Hold It Against Me," "Circus," "Womanizer," "Crazy." "Piece of Me," "Lucky" and "Everytime."
