Britney Spears' long-anticipated "Glee" episode debuts on Tuesday night (September 28). And the cast of the Fox hit promises that the show will live up to its high expectations.

"People that love this show or even like this show, they're going to love this episode," John Stamos teased in an interview posted online. "I don't feel like Britney stole my thunder ... maybe a little. Well, it's her show. [The episode is] called 'Britney/Brittany.' "

Stamos plays a key role in the episode. His character, Dr. Carl Howell, gives Brittany (Heather Morris) and Santana (Naya Rivera) the anesthesia that prompts their trippy ride through the singer's hit-filled catalog. Morris noted that Britney and Brittany will also throw down on the dance floor: "They're going to dance together," she said of her character and the pop star.

"When I was younger she was, like, my idol," Morris continued. " '[I'm a] Slave [4 U]' is, like, the best video ever. I am, like, literally an inch away from Britney Spears, who I used to watch on television and, like, learn dance moves to. ... It's going to be Spearstacular."

Like Morris, Rivera has warm memories of growing up a Spears fan. "I love Britney Spears. I mean, who doesn't? We all grew up with her," she said. "The first music purchase I ever made was ' ... Baby One More Time' on cassette. [It was like], Britney Spears is going to be in my mitts, what do I do? [And I was like], 'Hi Britney!' And then she was like, 'Hey!' She was awesome and beautiful. She was, like, magical."

Corey Monteith teased that his performance will be worth watching. "I am very excited about performing the 'Toxic' number. It's going to be very cool," he dished. "It's going to be an interpretation of the song you would not see coming."

The cast will also cover Spears classics like "Stronger" and "Me Against the Music."

Smelly radar facility causes delays at New York City airports

Filed under: , ,


The New York City-area airport radar facility stinks. No, it really does (at least, it did last night). Stop thinking about delays on the tarmac and circling each of the three airports near or in the city. Instead, focus on your nose. The radar facility was evacuated briefly when the smell of gas was reported. Unsurprisingly, this caused flights to be delayed. According to the FAA, the evacuation occurred at 6:45 PM last night. To keep things moving in the skies, 25 air traffic controllers stayed at their posts.

The staff was able to get back into the facility an hour later, and the cause of the smell as never determined.

'Jackass 3D' Stars Say The Situation Acted 'Too Cool' For Steve-O

'Steve-O loved him too,' Wee Man says about how the Sitch brushed off the 'Jersey Shore' superfan at this year's VMAs.

Although Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino has likely been earning thousands of new fans since starting his highly publicized stint on the latest season of "Dancing With the Stars," it seems the overly confident "Jersey Shore" stud might have some repair work to do if he wants votes from a few of his fellow MTV stars. The cast of "Jackass 3D" — including Jason "Wee Man" Acuña, Preston Lacy, Ehren McGhehey and Ryan Dunn — have some beef with the Sitch.

"We do not like the Situation," Wee Man recently revealed to MTV News. "He cool-guy'd Steve-O at the VMAs."

"Cool-guy'd"? We needed a translation.

McGhehey explained that it was akin to brushing someone off with an uninterested nod of the head. "Cool-guy'd. Like, whateva," he said demonstrating with a turn of the neck.

"He was too cool for him," Acuña added.

"He was not that impressed with Steve-O," Lacy reiterated. "Go figure," Dunn joked.

"Uh-oh. Now we're starting sh--," McGhehey warned.

But Wee Man went on to clarify that this wasn't simply about being snubbed at a big awards show. What made the incident particularly irksome, he said, is that Steve-O is such a big fan of Sorrentino's hit show, "Jersey Shore."

"And Steve-O loved him too," Acuña said. We then pointed out that the Situation is technically following in Steve-O's footsteps with his "DWTS" gig. Perhaps he'll be eliminated soon?

"Soon," he laughed. "Not soon enough."

Still, in spite of the "Jackass" castmates' beef with the Sitch, Steve-O said the snub hadn't dimmed his appreciation for the reality series.

"I have a rescue dog named Walter, and Walter and I are such fans of the 'Jersey Shore' that we changed his name to DJ Wally D," Steve-O confessed. "Yeah, he pulled a little bit of a 'cool guy' routine," Steve-O confirmed. "But then again, that's kind of what he's supposed to do, right? Be a douche bag?" he laughed. "What am I, like, going to be shocked?"

Don't miss "Jersey Shore" every Thursday at 10 p.m. ET/PT on MTV.
