This season it seems Glee hasn’t met a popular song it didn’t like. Last night’s episode brought us Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream” and next week delivers another one of the year’s most-covered songs, Cee-Lo Green‘s “Fuck Forget You.” But that’s not all: Cee-Lo’s pissed-off sensation will be delivered by none other than star actress Gwyneth Paltrow in the guise of substitute choir director Holly Holiday. Check Fox’s promo for the episode below:
In this video, we see that Gwyneth and friends will also take on Rihanna‘s “Umbrella” in an elaborately-staged dance number. Paltrow’s episode continues Glee‘s current trend of featuring big-name guest stars. A few weeks ago viewers were treated to John Stamos covering Meatloaf in “The Rocky Horror Glee Show,” and the week after next Carol Burnett drops by to play Sue Sylvester’s (Jane Lynch) mom. We don’t yet know what Burnett will sing, but I wouldn’t be surprised if one of her TV theme songs made an appearance.

I wouldn’t be surprised if she dusts of one of her Miss Hannigan numbers from the Annie movie too!
