The singing and dancing cast of Fox's hit series 'Glee' gave a live performance at the White House's annual Easter Egg Roll on April 5th.

'Glee' stars ran through the Queen song "Somebody to Love" first, with the whole group getting on the action. Next up was "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," performed by Matthew Morrison, playing a ukulele, and Mark Salling, who then sang "Sweet Caroline." "True Colors" was then sung by Jenna Ushkowitz followed by Stephanie Mills singing "Home." Wrapping up the energetic set was a group performance of the now smash-take on Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'."

Recent winner of the People's Choice Award for Best New Comedy and Golden Globe winner for Best Television Series Comedy or Musical, GLEE, the new musical comedy series, follows an optimistic teacher who - against all odds and a malicious cheerleading coach - attempts to save McKinley High's Glee Club from obscurity while helping a group of aspiring underdogs realize their true star potential.

The show, which also garnered Golden Globe recognition, stars Dianna Agron, Chris Colfer, Jessalyn Gilsig, Jane Lynch, Jayma Mays, Kevin McHale, Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Matthew Morrison, Amber Riley, Mark Salling and Jenna Ushkowitz.

Due to the success of the first installment of the show, which aired last on December 9, FOX has already ordered a second season of the show and announced that it will soon be launching a nationwide search to cast three new roles, which will be documented on the network in the multi-part special. These newest additions will make their debut on the second season premiere.

GLEE is produced by Ryan Murphy Television in association with 20th Century Fox Television. Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan are co-creators of the series. Murphy, Falchuk and Dante di Loreto serve as executive producers, while Ian Brennan serves as co-executive producer.

GLEE returns to FOX on April 13, 2010 at 9:30pm. For information on the upcoming GLEE tour this summer, visit www.gleetour2010.com.
