Madonna on GLEE: 'The entire cast was amazing'

Seems like the cast of GLEE can add one more excited party to the "Madonna" episode airing tomorrow, April 20 at 9:00pm on FOX, and that is the Queen of Pop herself.  Says Madonna of the cast: "The entire cast was amazing. They're all so talented. I especially loved Sue Sylvester and Kurt Hummel's characters."

GLEE's Chris Colfer recently responded to the compliment to EOnline saying "The fact that she watched the show with Lola and I'm one of her favorite characters and mentioned me by name in her statement? I don't' know where to begin."

Colfer went onto tell EOnline, "How do I respond? It doesn't get any better than that. If I'm ever down, I'm just going to remember, Madonna knows who you are."

The soundtrack from "The Power of Madonna" episode will be available in stores beginning tomorrow, Tuesday, April 20. The album features GLEE's distinctive and unique take on such classics as "Like A Virgin," "Express Yourself," "Vogue," "4 Minutes" and more.
