'Glee'-Cap: Lady Gaga, Barbra Streisand Make The Gleeks Shed Insecurities

With Kurt back at McKinley, we're worried about the fate of 'Klaine.'

This week's special 90-minute "Born This Way" episode of "Glee" kind of didn't need to be 90 minutes long, and to be honest, we were a little taken aback by the way the show seemed to equate insecurities about being gay with insecurities about wearing glasses. But if that what it takes for them to do a flash-mob scene featuring "Barbra Streisand," we'll take it. Sing along with the lyrics below.

Come on, Gleeks!
Do you believe in plot?
Well, I got something to say about it,
And it goes a little something like this.

[To the tune of "Born This Way"]

Rachel gets smacked, has a broken nose,
Considers having a rhinoplasty.
It sparks a 90-minute episode
Of loving who you're meant to be.

She gets talked out of it when Finn reacts,
And a flash mob says, "Girl, it's a mistake."
That shopping mall scene was so much damn fun.
Hold up a minute, is that Drake?! [Shot of the dude on the escalator that looks a lot like Drake]

Kurt's back at McKinley, yay!
Gives New Directions cache.
"Glee" 's on the right track, babe,
Just don't forget about Klaine.
I won't dare tell you a lie
When Blaine sang Keane, oh, I cried.
"Glee" 's on the right track, babe,
Just don't forget about Klaine.

Oooh, Karovsky's super gay,
Checking out Sam's bootay,
Just don't you forget about Klaine!
Blaine's mouth opens all the way
Holy crap is his jaw OK?
Just don't you forget about Klaine!

"Glee" was a drag
Over prom queens.
No need for this to be 90!

"Glee" don't worry, I'm here to stay,
Even if I dis your way,
I love you, don't forget about Klaine!
NO NEED FOR THIS TO BE 90!

"Unpretty" with Quinn Fabray,
That duet made me hit replay!
I love you, don't forget about Klaine!

"Glee" was a drag
Over prom queens.
Santana was so frickin' mean.
"I'll be your beard to win a crown
And in the process take Quinn down!"

Lauren finds Quinn's secret past:
She used to have a giant ass,
Which according to "Glee" is one in the same
As being flamboyantly gay.

[Jim rants.] Seriously, "Glee"? You're going to equate Mr. Shue's "butt chin" and Artie's poor eyesight, and Finn's inability to dance with homosexuality? And did anyone else find it weird that they sang "Born This Way" but cut out the verse about actually being gay? I know I'm hard on you every week, "Glee," but I can't help it. I guess I was just born that way.

Sports WAG of the Week: Victoria Beckham And Her Royal Wedding Outfit ? Yay or Nay?

Right Celebrity’s Sports WAG of the Week is none other than Victoria Beckham. Her royal wedding outfit has lots of people buzzing. What did you think of her ensemble? Let your voice be heard! What a day it’s been! The Royal Wedding was such a spectacular event, and I had such a fabulous time live blogging the affair. As we watched the guests file into Westminster Abbey, we caught a glimpse of David and Victoria Beckham’s wedding outfit ensembles. Both waved to the crowd as they awaited their turn to enter the Abbey, to which they received thunderous cheers from the masses. David looked extremely dapper (um, seriously when does he not look good?) in his Ralph Lauren suit but held on to his top hat. We can’t mess with the hair now, can we? Heh heh, I kid. He did have a bit of a fashion faux pas though, as commentators quickly pointed out that his OBE medal should have been worn on the left, rather than on his right lapel. It’s not clear if someone clued him in or if he noticed it himself, because he was later seen in the Abbey with the medal now situated on [...]

Jennifer Lopez Doubles the Glitz for Album Launch Event

Making for a memorable entrance, Jennifer Lopez rode into The Grove in Los Angeles on a double-decker bus for the "Extra" launch of her "Love?" album release yesterday (April 29).

The 41-year-old superstar was the picture of celebrity glitz and glamor as she sported a strapless gold sequined jumpsuit and black peep toe pumps while joining "Extra" host Mario Lopez.

Jennifer wowed the already-excited crowds as she and a group of backup dancers let loose, waving, dancing, and laughing their way into the huge outdoor affair.

"Love?," the first record released by Lopez in four years, offers listeners fun and funky dance anthems and even two songs written or produced by Lady Gaga.

'The Office' Recap: Season 7, Episode 21

It's the day before Michael's last day, which is weird because this show doesn't usually stretch episodes out more than one day. But it turns out that today is Michael's last day; he just didn't tell anyone. This way he figures he can spend a drama-free day saying his goodbyes and giving his farewell gifts, most of which are pretty amusing.

In other news, Gabe is doing a pretty poor job of holding it together after being dumped by Erin at the Dundies, Andy has been given the biggest clients despite being the worst salesman, and Deangelo is beginning to come unglued.

Robert Plant And Alison Krauss Win Grammy Album Of The Year

Raising Sand, from Led Zeppelin vet and bluegrass superstar, wins five Grammys on Sunday night.

"I'm bewildered," Robert Plant said onstage as he accepted the Grammy Album of the Year award with Alison Krauss on Sunday night. "In the old days we would have called this selling out, but it's a good way to spend a Sunday."

He was probably one of the few who were surprised, because Raising Sand, which won five trophies at Sunday night's show, is in many ways the perfect Grammy album. It features two respected veterans, a critically lauded producer, some sandpaper-and-velvet vocals and a baker's dozen of time-tested standards.

You're probably familiar with Robert Plant from his Led Zeppelin days, and you might be aware of producer T-Bone Burnett's work on the "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" soundtrack (it won the Grammy for Album of the Year in 2002). And if you don't know who Alison Krauss is, she possesses a haunting set of pipes and is one of the meanest fiddle players in the world. Oh, and she's won 21 Grammys, more than any other female artist and the seventh-most in history.

Really, she's the key to Sand's success, and not just because of her voice (or her fiddle playing). She and Plant first met in 2004, at a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame tribute to legendary bluesman Leadbelly, and the former Zeppelin man was amazed by her knowledge of American Roots music — so much so that they began kicking around the idea of recording an album together. Three years later, Sand was released.

And while Plant possesses the more famous voice, the album's finest moments radiate from Krauss. Whether she's getting bluesy on Little Milton's "Let Your Loss Be Your Lesson" or entwining with Plant's husky voice on songs like "Please Read the Letter" and Roly Salley's winsome "Killing the Blues," she more than carries her end of the bargain.

And perhaps that's also due to producer Burnett, who handpicked the 13 songs the duo cover on Sand. His arrangements are sparse — giving the two voices ample room to breathe — yet dense, warm and crackling at the same time. It's a testament to his work that he's often given just as much billing as Plant and Krauss on the project ... and it's certainly justified.

To date, Sand has sold more than 1 million copies, heaped tons of acclaim and actually earned a Grammy last year — "Gone Gone Gone (Done Moved On)" took home the award for Best Pop Collaboration With Vocals.

One expert was surprised not by the album's success, but by the fact that it's actually quite a good album.

"At first, the album seemed like a vanity project. ... Two names, clearly a one-off record, didn't have to be any good, you know?" New York Times music critic Jon Caramanica said. "Led Zeppelin fans would buy it because of Robert Plant, Alison Krauss would get a check. But it actually turned out to be a really thoughtful, really good record. So when you combine all that with the fact that the Grammys love to lionize one of their own, I could really see it taking home some awards."
