Idina Menzel Heading Back to Glee
Posted in Glee, Guest Stars, News by Ben at July 19th, 2011 • No Comments »

Now we’re talking! While I’m not of the mindset that more guest-star appearances is what Fox’s Glee needs in order to tap into its true potential and maybe get the show back up to what it was in Season 1, I’m willing to make a very big exception when it comes to certain people and Idina Menzel is definitely on that list.

I never got to see Menzel in Rent, but I’ve listened to her belt out Maureen’s songs on the soundtrack more times than I care to admit, and I did get to see her in Wicked. She’s fabulous, but if you know who she is, you probably already know that.

My Broadway-geeking aside, Menzel played a fairly crucial role in Season 1 of Glee. Not only was she the determined leader of New Directions biggest rival, Vocal Adrenaline, but she also turned out to be Rachel’s biological mother. She went on to adopt Quinn and Puck’s baby, after which, she drifted off into the sunset, while Puck and Quinn returned to normality as though the baby never existed. It seems that story may be coming back when Season 3 returns.

According to Deadline, Menzel’s in the final stages of negotiations to return to the Fox musical-dramedy. What’s more, her character Shelby may be returning for a major arc, appearing in as many as a dozen episodes from the season. While Deadline mentions no specifics on whether or not Quinn and Puck’s baby will play a role in the show, the site does state that Shelby’s presence complicates things for Rachel, as well as for Will, who sort of had a thing with Shelby.

“Glee: The 3D Concert Movie” soundtrack features the cast performing some fan favorites and some of their own biggest hits, including the original song “Loser Like Me,” their cover of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’,” and their version of Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way.”

The Dalton Academy Warblers also appear here, offering up their hit versions of Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream,” Pink’s “Raise Your Glass,” and Paul McCartney’s “Silly Love Songs.”

Covers of tracks by Britney Spears, the Beatles, Katy Perry, Michael Jackson, Cee Lo Green, and Barbra Streisand are also included. A version of Florence + The Machine’s “Dog Days Are Over” is included as a bonus track, for some reason.

The soundtrack hits stores on Aug. 9, while fans can catch “Glee: The 3D Concert Movie” in theaters beginning Aug. 12 for a limited two-week engagement.

Glee premieres its third season on Fox on Sept. 20.

Glee star Darren Criss has admitted he owes Beyonce an apology after covering a Destiny’s Child track on the hit US show.

Criss, who plays Dalton Academy Warbler’s Blaine, covered Destiny’s Child’s hit ‘Bills, Bills, Bills’ in a recent episode and feels he did not do BeyBey justice.

Criss told Access Hollywood: “I feel like I have to write her an apology now. I mean, come on, Beyoncé’s the queen of pop music. She’s the queen. If you could run for queen… I would put her name in the suggestion box. She’s incredible. I tried to do it as best as I could.”

Criss, 24, revealed his excitement to be joining his Glee co-stars in the upcoming Glee tour, saying: “It’s just been really a treat to do any of this. Rock ‘n’ roll, man. Bring it on!”
