Billy Ray Cyrus Defends GQ Shoot
Posted in Uncategorized by Shirlz at October 21st, 2010 • No Comments »

Billy Ray Cyrus — a member of the Parents Television Council Advisory Board — is upset with the Council’s statement that the smoking hot “Glee” photos published in GQ are borderline pedophilia.

Sources connected with Billy Ray tell TMZ … the singer is “disappointed” at the statement from Council Prez Tim Winter. We’re told Billy Ray feels like the Council “has recently been spending all its time attacking people rather than promoting family television.”

The Council has attacked Miley Cyrus for a sexy music video she recently shot. Papa Cyrus — who we’re told was not consulted before Winter issued his statement — is getting “fed up with the Council.”

I know what you’re all thinking. Why isn’t the site being updated? Well in brief, I’ve just started university, and I’ve been swamped with work. Therefore, I am looking for people to help me catch with EVERYTHING we have missing on Glee-Fan.Com. I plan on using the site to promote things related to Glee & its cast, and I would like for people to help update!

I’m looking for experienced webmasters/misses that are big fans of Glee, and have experience with WordPress, Coppermine and FTP/Cpanel. If you’re added to the site, you’ll have access to the press releases I receive, so you can see some exclusives before anyone else!

We’ve got an exclusive look at the upcoming GQ Magazine article/cover which features Glee stars, Lea Michele, Cory Monteith & Dianna Agron! Check out the sneak peek below:

…ON NEWSSTANDS NATIONWIDE – OCTOBER 26, 2010

NEW YORK – Glee, the sing-along comedy about high school theater geeks has quickly become the most popular show on television. Now, in it’s second season, the gay-positive, anti-stereotyping, song-and-dance TV sensation has spawned hit soundtrack albums, a sold-out concert tour, a Golden Globe award, and a passionate fan base of self-professed “Gleeks,” propelling the cast further into stardom with every episode. GQ’s Alex Pappademas sits down with stars Dianna Agron, Cory Monteith, and Lea Michele to discuss their relationships with their characters, cast mates, the racy GQ photo shoot, and the “no-trailer-sex” rule on set:

Lea Michele on people’s insisting she get a nose job:
“I was one of the only girls in my high school that didn’t get one. And if anybody needed it, I probably did. But my mom always told me, growing up, ‘Barbra Streisand didn’t get a nose job. You’re not getting a nose job.’ And I didn’t. Fuck those people. That’s why I’m proud to be on a positive show and to be a voice for girls and say, ‘You don’t need to look like everybody else. Love who you are.’”

Dianna Agron on the shoot and rumors that she and Michele are real life lovers:
“When it was just Lea and me, I was like, ‘We’re in skimpy clothes, we’re up against each other. This is feeding those rumors.’ I’ve never been shot in so little clothing.”

Cory Monteith on growing up in Canada and dropping out of high school:
“You have to really look to get into trouble in Victoria, but I was industrious. Skipping school. Drinking. All that kind of crap. Things started off innocent like that. I definitely found myself in some places that I’m very fortunate I came back from…. The last thing I want to do is kind of imply to readers in high school that you too can drop out and be an actor and get on a big show and be -famous and make a shitload of money.”

 

Glee has a following of extremely dedicated fans.  Many have compared the fanbase of Glee to that of the Twilight Saga and Harry Potter.  Now Glee has sparked a new era of camps, Glee Camp.

Inspired by the overwhelming popularity of the musical comedy-drama on the Fox network, dozens of theater groups and arts organizations in Chicago and across the country have created “Glee” summer camps for kids using music and choreography from the hit show. “Glee” camps have formed in North Carolina, Florida, Arizona, Indiana and Utah.

In the Chicago area, “Glee” camps at the Circle Theatre in Forest Park and the Children’s Theatre of Elgin just wrapped up their June sessions. At least 10 other “Glee” camps are scheduled for July and August, with some already sold out. Christian Youth Theater, for example, just sold out its “Glee” camps in Cary and Wheaton after enrolling 150 young people ages 11 to 17. The group has additional camps running in Arlington Heights, Gurnee and Rockford.

“Glee” camps are for budding stars usually from 8 to 17 years old, and run for one or two weeks, culminating in a final performance.

But each camp differs in how much “Glee” they actually put in their program. Some theater groups are writing original scripts using characters, storylines and music. Most other “Glee” camps have decided to focus solely on the music and dance, avoiding issues raised on the show such as teen pregnancy, disability and homosexuality.

Camp directors said “Glee’s” appeal is due to several factors, including its wide range of music that covers show tunes, classic rock, pop and hip-hop. Others praise the show’s diverse cast of characters at the fictional William McKinley High School in Lima, Ohio, including Rachel Berry, the endearing, but overbearing Jewish diva determined to be a Broadway star, and Finn Hudson, the football jock who struggles to balance his macho image with his love for singing.
