Glee, my friends, continues to be one of the best shows on tv right now. Last night's episode did not disappoint, as it not only included an AMAZING version of "Somebody to Love" that made me tear up a little, and this little nugget that we call "Puck in a towel":
But featured the goddess that is Kristin Chenoweth. I am so glad they had her guest star on this show. It's like she was made for Glee. Btch is FIERCE. Revered in the theater world, she is also know to lay people as the girl from The West Wing and more recently, her Emmy award winning role on Pushing Daises. But like I said, in our theater world, she is the ULTIMATE Broadway diva. In a recent interview with Chris Colfer, the kid who plays the FABULOUS Kurt on Glee, said "Working with Kristin is what I can imagine what a Priest would go through if they worked with Jesus." That being said, here's an excerpt from one of my favorite blogs, bestweekever.tv, recapping the scene with Cheno and Lea Michele singing 'Maybe This Time' from Cabaret.
Now, the highlight of the show. Ms. Rhodes is wheeled into the room on a gurney and introduced to the rest of the club, who is shocked by her age and emotionless forehead. To prove her worth, she has the pianist “Tinkles” cue up Cabaret’s "Maybe This Time", which she duets with Rachel. It was here that the Earth physically shook, as gay men and their lady hags jumped off of their couches to cheer on a scene that could only be appreciated by this oft-forgotten group of Americans. This scene was almost too good for TV, and looked like something directed by Chicago’s Rob Marshall.
Geez, that line is so true it's disgusting. Here's the clip! Enjoy nerds!
