FOX announced this morning that ‘Glee’ will be getting some hot stars on their new season!

Sarah Jessica Parker and Kate Hudson have signed on to guest-star on the hit FOX show.

Kate will appear in eight episodes (wow!), and Parker will appear in “multiple episodes” this fall.

FOX also revealed what season four will look like, noting that it will be a show-within-a-show format, featuring a number of McKinley High School graduates at a performing arts college in New York City.

The drama will also continue at McKinley, with a slew of new characters who will be announced at a later date.

What great news for the show! I love both of them!!

Lindsay Lohan is currently filming a segment for ‘Glee’, and even though last week shooting went “really great, she was so professional and it looked like everything was going to go so well,” yesterday did not go as well.

Lindsay showed up on the set of the hit FOX show over three hours late. E! reports that some staffers were so upset with her tardiness, that they nicknamed her “That Girl”, saying “She has rubbed them all up the wrong way by being so disrespectful of everyone else’s schedule.”

Dot Marie Jones, who plays Coach Bieste, tweeted out (and later deleted): “Gonna be a long day!! Some ppl show up late and just throw a wrench in things. Not cool! I’d rather be an hour early (I was) than 5 minutes late.”

Lindsay (along with guest celebrity judges Rex Lee and Perez Hilton) was shooting the big “Nationals” competition, for the Glee episode that will air May 15 on Fox. They were doing reaction shots of Lindsay and the other audience members yesterday. She is playing herself.

Lindsay’s spokesman Steve Honig insists she was late yesterday because of a “misunderstanding” about her call time, and tells us: “The production team came to us and said that they wanted to start [with Lindsay] right after lunch, which was at 2. They wanted to begin with Lindsay at 3, so that meant she had a lot of time where she wasn’t doing anything. That’s why people didn’t see her. She was then in hair and makeup and began after lunch at 3.”

He adds: “If there was a problem yesterday, I would have just said ‘no comment,’ however I can’t ignore this because this is utter B.S. This is a classic example of people trying to bash Lindsay. She busted her ass yesterday and is back on set again today.”

A well-placed Glee source tells us that despite the tardiness issues yesterday, “Everyone on Glee is still rooting for Lindsay. We had made a few jokes at her expense earlier in the show, and we really do want her to be able to succeed.”

Lindsay is on the Glee set today finishing up her guest spot.

Why am I not surprised! Maybe Rosie was right?

Here are some new pictures of her in Los Angeles yesterday after her day of filming.

Life and Style is reporting that ‘Glee’ costars Cory Monteith and Lea Michele are dating offscreen.

Lea has reportedly been single since splitting from her boyfriend Theo Stockman last September. Even though there were whispers that Lea and Ashton had hooked up while promoting ‘New Years Eve’, I think it’s highly unlikely that ever happened.

Apparently Life and Style has multiple witnesses that say Lea, 25, and Cory, 29, were getting romantic on Valentine’s Day during a romantic date at Il Covo in Los Angeles.

“They were into each other all night,” an eyewitness reveals to Life & Style. “She was very happy, flirting and touching Cory a lot. He just stared at her with puppy-dog eyes.”

The duo didn’t hold back from showing their affection, giggling and holding handing hands throughout the evening. The eyewitness tells Life & Style that Cory fed his valentine spaghetti and Lea reciprocated by affectionately rubbing her date’s back. The couple were spotted again on a date at the Ritz-Carlton on Feb. 17.

“Cory is totally into her,” a Glee crew member confesses to Life & Style.

Lea split from her longtime beau Theo Stockman in September, and the actress and Cory were caught canoodling on the Glee set in November. But the lovebirds’ chemistry has been undeniable from the start.

“For me, if it was going to happen with anybody, it would have happened with Cory,” she admitted in 2011. And with grueling 16-hour workdays and an infectious engagement plotline, the duo have become closer than ever. “As long as I get to have scenes with Cory, it makes me really happy,” Lea has said.

The stars’ reps didn’t respond when asked for comment.

I actually don’t really care if they’re dating in real life. I’m a bit bored by this story… seems too… expected. I would like, however, to address the fact that Cory is damn near 30 – playing a highschooler on screen! Now THAT’s impressive!

Singer Charice Pempengco, who stars on the hit show ‘Glee’ suffered a dramatic loss yesterday. Her estranged father was stabbed to death in her hometown in the Philippines.

The singer pulled out of a scheduled concert in Singapore, and canceled her shows for Wednesday and Thursday so she could rush home.

“I am not going to be there to be part of David Foster and Friends concert,” she Tweeted on Tuesday. “I have to go back to the Philippines as soon as possible to be with my family.”

Her father, 40-year-old construction worker Ricky Pempengco, had been at a small grocery store in San Pedro township south of Manila late Monday when he brushed against a drunk man who became angry and stabbed him with an ice pick in the chest and back, according to the Laguna province police chief, Senior Supt. Gilbert Cruz.

A manhunt has been launched for the suspect, with a 20,000 pesos ($470) award for information leading to his arrest. Cruz said the killing appeared random and there was no indication the suspect and victim had any prior grudges.

Charice had long been estranged from her father. Local media reported that Charice’s mother left him when Charice and her younger brother were small children.

In another Twitter post Tuesday, Charice said she once had a “really great relationship” with her father before their family troubles began.

“I loved him and I will still love him,” she wrote. “He’s still my Dad after all.”

The 19-year-old songstress, born Charmaine Clarice Relucio Pempengco, is widely known throughout Asia from concerts and TV talent shows in the Philippines and South Korea.

She has said she would borrow bus fare to travel to amateur singing contests, and eventually broke into the American market when she was invited at age 15 to appear on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” after the show had seen a fan video of her on YouTube that went viral.

She also appeared on the “Oprah Winfrey Show” and has had a recurring role on “Glee” as the character Sunshine Corazon.

That’s a horrible loss. My prayers go out to her and her family!

Seriously, this is just getting old. After saying they weren’t leaving – then saying they were – now we’re back to ‘Glee’s’ major characters aren’t going anywhere after season three.

The biggest Glee news coming out of Comic-Con: Despite Ryan Murphy saying that Rachel, Kurt, and Finn will graduate at end of this coming third season, stars Lea Michele, Chris Colfer, and Cory Monteith will return for season 4. At today’s panel in San Diego, Glee co-creator and exec producer Brad Falchuk told the audience that even though the three were set to finish high school, “because they’re graduating doesn’t mean they’re leaving the show. If you have Lea Michele under contract, you don’t say, ‘We’re gonna let you go.’”

“It was never our plan or our intention to let them go,” Fulchuk added. “They are not done with the show after this season.”

That’s a big about-face from what Murphy told The Hollywood Reporter: “You can keep them on the show for six years and people will criticize you for not being realistic, or you can be really true to life and say when they started the show they were very clearly sophomores and they should graduate at the end of their senior year.”

Murphy also said he made the decision in concert with Michele and Colfer. “I involved Chris and Lea and they thought that was a good idea,” he told THR. “They both trust the writing and trust me and felt that it would be great to have an open and closed experience for them to go out while they were on top.”

EW confirmed that all of the actors have signed traditional seven-year contracts so it’s not like their deals were going to expire after next season, though the studio retains the right to drop them year after year. Chord Overstreet’s exit, however, is still a go, Falchuk said. In fact, he won’t return this fall for any episodes. Falchuk said Overstreet was offered a deal to return for 10 episodes with the possibility of becoming a series regular, but Overstreet declined in favor of other opportunities.

If they come back again and say they ARE leaving, I just may scream out loud. Enough already!

Chris Colfer, who won a Golden Globe portraying Kurt on ‘Glee’ found out he was leaving the hit show after seeing the news on Twitter with the rest of us.

“I didn’t necessarily know that it was going to be our last season next year,” he tells Access Hollywood. “I knew something like that was coming up eventually. I mean, we can’t be there forever.”

Like many graduates, he says the milestone is bittersweet.

“Do I want to leave the show? Absolutely not,” he says in another interview, to Extra. “This is home for me. But I understand that there’s time for a conclusion.”

Still, he got a nice going-away gift: an Emmy nomination on Thursday.

“As a performer, I feel so fulfilled,” Colfer, 21, tells Extra. “It’s just a huge category. It’s best actor in a comedy, and we all know that Kurt’s not funny, so I’m very, very happy to be a part of it.”

That’s not too cool Ryan Murphy!

esterday a bombshell was dropped when ‘Glee’ creator Ryan Murphy confirmed that Lea Michele, Cory Monteith and Chris Colfer would be leaving the show after the next season.

The three will graduate from high school – and move on.

But the door isn’t closed on at least two of the original cast members.

Just as “Glee” fans began to contemplate a life without Rachel Berry and Kurt Hummel, they may not end up having to say goodbye after all.

Yesterday, The Hollywood Reporter broke the news that stars Lea Michele (Rachel), Chris Colfer (Kurt) and Corey Monteith (Finn) would be graduating from the hit musical dramedy at the end of the coming third season. And while that has some fans bummed, a new report reveals that creator Ryan Murphy has bigger plans for the first two stars.

RumorFix.com says that Michele and Colfer will star in a spinoff show that places their characters in New York, a thread that began pulling near the end of last season. In New York for Nationals, their characters snuck onto the stage of “Wicked” and sang one of the songs. The characters decided that, following their graduation, they’d move out to the city.

While not announcing the news himself, Murphy said in his interview with The Hollywood Reporter that he planned on focusing on that storyline during the upcoming third season.

“I’m much more interested in Lea’s character — not so much on her relationship with Finn, but more on what her dreams are beyond high school and how she plans on getting them,” he said.

I like the idea of them creating a new show around these characters. I would much rather see them in a whole new show, than try and pretend they’re forever seniors ala ’90210′. It will be interesting to see, that’s for sure!
