gLeek upd8 - Gaga over Karofsky, Bieber-proof, Glee Club News

S01E20's "Theatricality" is a testament of how Glee going gaga over Gaga leads to wonderful performances such as the almost-identical "Bad Romance" and the stunning reinvention of "Poker Face". This time, the pop icon is again lending her soon-to-be-released single "Born This Way" in an upcoming eppy.

Max Adler, who plays Karofsky, a gay bully who terrorized Kurt throughout the show

Centered over Max Adler's character Karofsky, the track will be used as the focal song of a March/April episode that tackles gay bullying and out-of-the-closet struggles. Murphy stated, "I love that that song is anthem. This show is by nature optimistic, and I think a character like Karofsky could turn to booze or pills or alcohol and kill themselves or do something dark. But I also love Max and I love that character and I sorta want that character to have a happy ending. So I don't really know what that's going to be, but I do know we're going to do a whole episode that's about that song." The episode will air sometime between the release of the single in February and the release of Gaga's full Born This Way album in May.

In other news, Glee creator Ryan Murphy revealed to Perez Hilton that the show will not dedicate an entire episode to Justin Bieber contrary to the rumors that circulated weeks ago. Murphy added that no other tribute shows will be done for the rest of the season (which is understandable since the first half had been loaded with them). However, a small part of a big episode will include one of JB's songs, as Sam sings it to woo back Quinn. Trouble in Ken and Barbie's paradise? Hell yeah. Though I doubt it will last long with Sam's ultra cute lips (and mouth), Bieberfied hair and irresistable green eyes.

The ever lovable Kristin Chenoweth will also be coming back. Can't wait.

Glee Club News:

• Will/Emma: With Carl out of sight, the green-eyed monster might just make its way to Emma. Holly Holiday is back like sex-on-wheels (literally, she's the new sex education teacher) to spice up Will's otherwise pathetic lovelife while he turns the tables against Emma.

• Puck/Quinn/Sam: The Barbie couple is still going strong, or are they? See previous paragraphs for an idea on how Valentine's will go down for the two. However, I wouldn't rule out Puck just yet.

• Kurt/Blaine: Valentine's Day just oozes love in the air and I can't wait for these two to finally have some luvin'. As Darren Criss dished out to E!, "We're definitely going to start seeing some layers to the two of them. The pink elephant in the room will finally be addressed, let's put it that way." Oh la la, KLAINE is on demand.

• Artie/Brittany: Ah, my comfort couple Artie and Brittany will continue with their asinine, funny and cute-tastic relationship for the Valentine's Day episode. And oh yeah, Artie's bringing on the slow in slow motion.
