‘Glee’ Season 5 Scoop: Adam Lambert’s Villainous Role Revealed
Adam will be tangling with Lady Hummel — I mean, Kurt — when ‘Glee’ returns.
Just when we thought we couldn’t be any more stoked for Adam Lambert‘s arrival on Glee in its upcoming fifth season, Chris Colfer dropped by Live With Kelly And Michael to give us a major tease. Now, we finally know what the American Idol runner-up will be doing, where we’ll see him — and most importantly, which McKinley High School grad he’ll be butting heads with!
“Adam Lambert is joining the show, and he’s going to play my nemesis,” Chris said Aug. 7, while promoting his latest book. “I always wanted to see Kurt be mean.”
“Mean” Kurt? OK, we’re sold!
News of Adam joining the Glee cast broke July 10, when creator Ryan Murphy tweeted the announcement himself:
I am thrilled to announce that the super talented Adam Lambert is joining the cast of Glee this fall.
Adam immediately echoed Ryan’s sentiments, tweeting, “I’m so excited!!”
‘Glee’ Cast Tweets From Season 5 Set
The stars of Fox’s hit musical series began production on the fifth season Aug. 5, and they wasted no time tweeting pictures from the set.
On Aug. 6, Kevin McHale tweeted about Artie’s “new kicks,” which is nice because his feet really don’t get enough attention.
Lea Michele followed that up with a very different kind of set photo — a sad shot of Rachel sitting alone at the edge of her bed, accompanied by the caption “Feels good to be home.”
