Wicked Tony Award winner Idina Menzel will fly into the Golden Globe-nominated series “Glee,” the Associated Press reports.
Menzel will appear in the new episodes of “Glee,” which are set to begin airing in April 2010. “OK, listen. We had Kristin [Chenoweth] now Idina’s coming,” cast member Chris Colfer told the AP. “I can’t even fathom that. I can’t even talk about it. I am so, so excited.”
As previously reported, Menzel has been in talks to portray the coach of McKinley High’s rival glee club Vocal Adrenaline. The Wicked and Rent star will likely appear in all nine of the upcoming episodes. Tony Award nominee Jonathan Groff (Spring Awakening) has also been confirmed to portray the lead member of Vocal Adrenaline in the 2010 episodes of “Glee.”
“Glee” creator Ryan Murphy is also working on an all-Madonna episode of the series for 2010.
It’s a boy for Taye Diggs and Idina Menzel. The couple welcomed a son, Walker Diggs, on Wednesday, the couple’s reps confirm to People.
“Mother, father and son are all doing well,” the reps said in a statement.
The Broadway belters announced the pregnancy in March, later sharing that the baby was a boy.
Although they had a few names in mind, Diggs said they were waiting to make a final decision.
“We have a couple [names] in the running,” the Private Practice star explained. “But part of us wants to see what he hits us with when we see him. We’ll see what he looks like.”
Walker is the first child for Menzel and Diggs, who are both 38 and met on the 1996 Broadway production of Rent. They wed in January 2003.

Taye Diggs and his wife, Broadway star Idina Menzel, are expecting a son, In Touch can reveal. “They are so excited to have a boy,” an insider says. “Taye especially is over the moon and can’t stop talking about all the things he’ll do with him!” The Private Practice star and his wife first met while starring in Rent in 1996 and married in 2003, but Idina had been working on her career. “I want kids. As soon as my wife says the word, I’m there,” Taye has said. This is the first child for Taye, 38, and Idina, 37.
Did you guys catch that India was actually on Private Practice last week? She played the mother of the allergic boy…or Tim Daly’s love interest!
After 13 years together, Taye Diggs and Idina Menzel are expecting their first baby, their rep exclusively confirms to Usmagazine.com. The baby is due later this year.
The Private Practice star, 38, and the Tony award-winning actress, 37, first met on the original 1996 Broadway production of Rent in NYC. After seven years of dating, they got married in January 2003.
Menzel hinted to Us last January that once she finished promoting her third solo album, I Stand, she would consider starting a family with Diggs.
“It’s definitely in the plans,” she told Us. “I’ll settle down and start popping out some babies.”
She said Diggs has been ready for kids since “the day I met him.”
“He wouldn’t talk about marriage, but he’d talk about me having his children,” she told Us. “He’s always wanted kids. He grew up with four younger brothers and sisters, so he’s very comfortable around children.”
How do they keep their marriage together?
“We just really work hard to try to stay best friends,” Menzel told Us. “I love him so much, and I feel like we both have each other’s backs, and we have a great respect for each other. We’re enjoying each new phase of our lives together.”
