Lovato is reportedly signed on for at least six episodes, beginning with part two of the show’s Beatles’ tribute episode on Oct. 3. The X-Factor judge and pop artist has been cast as Dani, a fellow struggling artist who befriends Rachel (Lea Michele) and Santana (Naya Rivera). Though Lovato’s level of interactions with other cast members is unknown, Lovato will definitely be singing a duet with Rivera for a rendition of “Here Comes The Sun,” and will also be performing with Lambert’s character.
Upon hearing the news of Lovato’s casting, Lambert tweeted his excitement, saying, “Excited to sing w you girl!”
Jane Lynch also commented on the addition of Lovato to the Glee cast, and though she admitted to having little to no knowledge of what the scope of Lovato’s role would be, she was quick to express her joy.
“I’m really happy she’s joining us,” said Jane Lynch.
The creative minds behind Glee have been struggling to rebuild the show's fifth season after the death of star Cory Monteith in July. Monteith, who played Finn on the hit show, died of an accidental overdose at the age of 31. The third episode of the fifth season will act as a tribute episode to him and his beloved character.
Glee returns Thursday Sept. 26 at 9 P.M. on Fox.
