‘Glee’ season 5 spoilers: Official Adam Lambert details for ‘A Katy Or a Gaga’
Want to see some of the Adam Lambert – “Glee” rumors come to an end? Well, that is what this article is really all about: Some of the first details on “A Katy Or a Gaga” straight from Fox. There’s no more guessing or assuming, instead what we have here are simply facts.
The first thing to note is that this episode is going to feature both the New York and McKinley High storylines in prominence, and will also have an array of popular songs from both Lady Gaga and Katy Perry. While you can see Adam’s name listed as Starchild below, his actual character name is none other than Elliot Gilbert. Does anyone else feel a little bit of a Superman – Clark Kent vibe going on here?
Take a look at the synopsis below:
“The members of New Directions tackle their assignment of getting out of their comfort zones and determining whether they’re more like ‘Katy’ (Perry) or (Lady) ‘Gaga.’ Kurt holds auditions for his new band and must decide if he’ll let in the overly bold performer, Starchild (guest star Adam Lambert). Meanwhile, Jake gets closer to Bree (Erinn Westbrook) as he and Marley grow apart.”
In case you are curious, there is also going to be another guest appearance turned in here from Phoebe Strole as Penny Owen, the school nurse doubling as Sam’s love interest.
Personally, we’re stoked to see Adam and to also see Demi Lovato back. Do we really love the premise of the actual episode? Not for McKinley at least, since it feels silly to constantly put two current singers against each other when the majority of the internet already does that. Who knows? Maybe we’re getting a message here about peace and cooperation in the end. We certainly hope so. The New York story, meanwhile, we’re not so worried about it. It should just be a nice breath of fresh air and happiness following the Cory Monteith tribute, which hardly ended on much of a joyous note at all.
What do you think about the idea for this episode, and what do you want to see happen? Be sure to share below, and click here to see who Sam is going to surprisingly be working with next.

I find this site through a daily Google Alert looking for articles about Adam Lambert. Google should send alerts to anyone who has set alerts for any of the other actors named in the article. Yet, all of the comments are about Adam. This shows how loyal his fans are. No one commented that they can’t wait to hear a Gaga or Perry song on Glee. I am hoping that Adam’s first episode airs before the writer’s end his story line. If the ratings go up a lot due to Adam’s appearance, I hope they will extend his story line for the whole season. Adam is not touring now, so hopefully he would be able to and would want to do an extended role on the show. If he increased the ratings, that would be a feather in his cap.

I understand some people’s anxiety re the # of episodes that will include Adam… it’s cause we crave seeing & hearing him & are just so so excited. He is a once-in-a-lifetime magnetic performer & personality who makes many of us feel..well, crazy good. Thanks, Adam– & Ryan. (from a 65 yr old lady who saw the Beatles in NY at age 16.)

Everywhere I’ve been to read about this seasons Glee I see glamberts whining about Adam only being in 1 episode. Why is this even a “thing” with you guys? No-one EVER said he’d only be in 1 ep – on the contrary – it’s always been clear and specifically stated that he was in it for a whole story line covering several episodes. Yes ‘he’ doesnt get the singing gig. But ADAM is still in the show – it’s not Adam who doesnt get the gig, it’s STARCHILD. The story is then about how Starchild GETS THE SINGING GIG in the face of Kurt’s objections. Obviously. He has two names for gosh sake – why would they even bother to do that for one measly episode? He’s supposed to be Kurt’s nemesis – that can’t happen in one episode. In addition he’s slated to sing Get Into The Groove with Kurt in ep 7. So why all the bitching n moaning everywhere about “only 1 ep”….?

I hope there is much more to this role, that is, for Adam Lambert. He is dynamite! There are fans across the globe wanting more of his talent on stage, in person, and anywhere we can get it-TV, radio, film…. Smart writers will pen him in if they the are lucky enough to do so. Can’t wait! <3

I’ll take what I can get from Adam Lambert. Truthfully, I wanted him to be Nicky Arnstein to Lea Michelle’s Fanny Brice, or a teacher at NYADA or the director of a competing Glee club from another school. What I will say is that if Adam and Lea don’t do a duet, I will probably not get over this anytime soon. Can you imagine how good they would be together? So far the storyline worries me, because it appears Adam doesn’t get the singing gig (how is that possible?). Come on Ryan, ya gotta give Adam a meatier role and have the duet with Lea (aka Rachel). I would be disappointed if there was only one guest shot. I’d stop watching after 4 years.
