In an interview with MTV News, Glee star Lea Michele promised some exciting story lines when the FOX musical dramedy returns on February 25th with all new episodes. "You guys have no idea," she told MTV News, adding, It's so exciting. [Ryan Murphy] calls me every day and gives me all the scoop."

The actress also revealed that she recently shot a scene with frequent Glee Season 5 guest star Adam Lambert, and even duets with him on an "awesome song".

Michele did spill some details on what viewers can expect in the second half of the season. "I know that me and Adam have a really exciting story line coming up. [Lambert's] Elliott and [my character] Rachel become really good friends," she said. "And there's a big Santana and Rachel shocker coming out in February." She also hinted that Gleeks can look to the episode titles for more clues on plot lines. "I think that the next two episodes coming up, I think they're called 'Frenemies' and 'Trio,' are my two favorite episodes that we've done so far this season. I haven't seen them yet, but they were the most fun to shoot. So I can't wait for you guys to see what's gonna happen. It is [juicy]," she said. "I read the scripts and I was like 'Oh my god.' "

On March 18, the show will celebrate its milestone 100th episode, which will see the return of former cast members such as Dianna Agron, Heather Morris and past guest stars including Kristin Chenoweth. "It's gonna be great... I think the 100th episode is going to be very emotional, obviously, surrounded by the family," Michele shared. "It's like we can do anything together."

About GLEE:

Glee is a musical comedy about a group of ambitious and talented kids who escape the harsh realities of high school by joining a Glee club, where they find strength, acceptance and, ultimately, their voice. Last year's graduates and aspiring singers, RACHEL BERRY (Lea Michelle) and KURT HUMMEL (Chris Colfer), packed their bags for New York and enrolled at a prestigious performing arts school, NYADA, where they made new friends and learned the cruel realities of college. These naïve freshmen moved into a Brooklyn loft, signed up for internships, auditioned for Broadway shows and gained a roommate when SANTANA LOPEZ (Naya Rivera) moved to the Big Apple.

Since its debut, Glee has become a bona fide cultural phenomenon, received prestigious honors, including a Golden Globe Award and a Peabody Award, and singlehandedly made Glee clubs cool again. The series boasts critical acclaim, a die-hard fan base, two Grammy Award nominations, two platinum and five gold albums, more than 43 million songs and more than 13 million albums sold worldwide, two sold-out concert tours, a 3-D movie and four Emmy Awards and three Golden Globes, including the award for Best Television Series - Comedy or Musical.

GLEE has attracted A-list guest stars, from Gwyneth Paltrow to Kate Hudson and Sarah Jessica Parker. This season, Demi Lovato (THE X FACTOR) guest-stars as "Dani," a New York-based struggling artist and friend of Rachel and Santana's.
