‘Glee’ Sings High Praises of Guest Stars
Mar 15, 2010 Entertainment
"Glee" sang and danced its way to popularity among thesp enthusiasts, but not without the help of some big name guest stars. Olivia Newton-John, Idina Menzel, and Kristin Chenoweth have already made cameos with Neil Patrick Harris and Molly Shannon on deck. The cast itself is going to guest star on a big stage–at the White House.
"That’s a monumental type of thing. It will definitely be a milestone in my life," gloated Amber Riley at PaleyFest about her upcoming trip to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Her co-star Chris Colfer joked, "I really hope we get a tour of the Oval Office. Really, that’s what I’m aiming for. I might have to sneak in."
As a sentiment to President Barack Obama’s upbringing, Matthew Morrison plans to bring Hawaiian "flair" and go equipped with a ukulele in tow. He also spilled some of the storyline of the "Glee" episode in which Neil Patrick Harris drops in on the fun. "He plays an old high school rival of mine and now he’s on the school board, so he’s trying to shut down the glee club and we do a couple of awesome duets. I can’t tell you what they are."
