Oh wow! Demi Lovato is in talks with FOX to join the cast of Glee for a “significant” arc, reports TV Line:
Actress-singer and X Factor judge Demi Lovato is nearing a deal to join the Fox musical dramedy’s upcoming fifth season for a significant arc, TVLine has learned exclusively.
According to sources, Lovato (who turns 21 on Tuesday) will play Dani, a NYC-based struggling artist friend of Rachel and Santana’s. She will also interact frequently with Adam Lambert’s incoming character, and the pair will have several musical numbers together.
Very interesting! The question is, will they be part of the NYADA world (the NYC based performing arts college Rachel and Kurt (Chris Colfer) attend) or will Rachel get the lead role in Funny Girl that she auditioned for in the Season 4 finale, with Demi and Adam being part of a Broadway arc?
Chris revealed in a recent interview that Adam would play his “nemesis.” Demi’s character will be friends with Rachel and Santana, but will also have a connection to what looks to be Kurt’s frenemy. How do you think the puzzle pieces we have so far fit together?
We’ll see!
Demi is set for a six episode arc and will join the show in Episode 2–the second part of a Beatles tribute–airing Oct 2.
UPDATE: FIRST SONG SPOILER! Demi (Dani) will sing “Here Comes the Sun” with Naya Rivera (Santana)
