Chord Overstreet News

Chord Overstreet will not return to GLEE next season as a series regular, according to reports from Entertainment Weekly.

The cast of GLEE is currently on their sophomore summer tour, which has taken them to multiple continents and a myriad of cities. After the tour is over, at least one Glee cast member has plans to go solo with an album release.

Chicago Sun-Times critic Paige Wiser, the television critic who wrote the paper's review for GLEE LIVE!, has been ousted from the paper. Wiser's review - which included information one song that wasn't performed and another that she didn't see, according to the Chicago Tribune - was so inaccurate that it drew notice almost immediately and was removed from the paper's website altogether.

The cast of GLEE is taking their act on the road again for a 16-city North American tour that is slated to come to the Wells Fargo Center on June 8, 2011. The 'Glee Live! In Concert!' tour will star 13 members of the TV series' cast

The Glee Live! In Concert! tour in North America began on Friday, May 21 at the Mandalay Bay Event Center in Las Vegas and will wrap up the North American leg on June 18th in Uniondale, NY at the Nassau Coliseum. The Gleeks have completed their performances in California and have landed in Minneapolis for their performance at the Target Center tonight. BroadwayWorld's Audra Stafford was on hand in San Jose where Gleeks Cory Monteith and Naya Rivera met fans and signed autographs. Click below for the spot!

On Monday, May 16, the FOX 2011 Upfront event was held at the Wollman Rink in Central Park in New York City. The event revealed which shows are returning, which are being cut from the network line-up and introduced the new upcoming series. Audiences can, of course, expect the return of GLEE and American Idol and will be seeing the premieres of The X Factor, and new comedies with Katie Finneran and more.

Amongst the details about the $6 million dollar episode is word that the cast filmed in the Gershwin Theatre, home to Broadway's WICKED. And, the song Chris and Lea are singing in the Gershwin? 'For Good' from WICKED! Lea explains: 'We feel like we're Elphaba and Glinda. Chris likes to be called Guylinda, though'

Boasting the big, bright and blazing return of Broadway baby Jonathan Groff as show-favorite featured guest star Jesse St. James and the very finest vocal song performance of Season Two so far, last night's 'Prom Queen' episode of GLEE was everything but CARRIE's bucket of pig's blood on top. Speaking of pigs, Karofsky certainly got his comeuppance - quite heartfelt in its denouement - at long, long last, on the dramatic side of the story, and the audience got to musically pig-out and irreverently indulge in the frothy pop confections of Benny Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus & Stig Andersen - otherwise known as ABBA - with the rousing gleeked-out, tweaked-out rendering of the newly-crowned MAMMA MIA super-anthem 'Dancing Queen', as well as partake in the pop culture right-this-moment fun of the funky Black Kids' song 'I‘m Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend To Dance With You' courtesy of fan favorite Darren Criss at his hipster height, and the YouTube sensation Rebecca Black‘s 'Friday', performed by the boys of New Directions riotously right. Kings, queens, hearts, diamond tiaras and even a few jokers were in the deck as the hand was played out in this brisk, brash and glossy entry in the spectacularly strong - if dramatically inert more often than not - second half of Season Two. So, today, we dust off our best blue tuxes and pop the cheapest pink champagne for a guilty pleasure edition of the weekly SOUND OFF reviews of GLEE that will be wrapping up - so very sorry to say - all too soon at the end of this month with the highly-awaited season finale on May 24 and our year-end rap up soon thereafter. But, with this column as well as with GLEE, certainly the very best is yet to come - and, even if not, this is good enough.

Tonight on GLEE, fan favorite Jonathan Groff returns as Vocal Adrenaline front-man Jesse St. James and tries to win back Rachel. Check out photos and audio from the episode below!

Beginning Friday, May 21 at the Mandalay Bay Event Center in Las Vegas, 'Glee' stars Lea Michele (Rachel), Cory Monteith (Finn), Amber Riley (Mercedes), Chris Colfer (Kurt), Kevin McHale (Artie), Jenna Ushkowitz (Tina), Mark Salling (Puck), Dianna Agron (Quinn), Naya Rivera (Santana), Heather Morris (Brittany), Harry Shum, Jr. (Mike), Chord Overstreet (Sam), Darren Criss (Blaine), Ashley Fink (Lauren) and members of 'The Warblers' will perform in an all-new singing and dancing celebration of the Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning show. In a recnt interview with 'Something for the Weekend' Gwyneth Paltrow (who plays substitute teacher Holly Holiday in the show) revealed that she too will be making appearances on the concert tour. Paltrow commented: 'They've asked me to do a couple of little surprise things.'
