Glee Spoilers: MJ Tribute Episode to Showcase Evil Side of Sebastian
Grant Gustin may or may not be promoted on season four of Glee.
But he'll definitely be doing some damage on the show's upcoming Michael Jackson tribute episode.
The actor spoke to E! News last night and said his villainous Warbler will "inflict pain on somebody" early on in the installment, leading to Santanta confronting Sebastian at Dalton Academy - and the two breaking into a rendition of "Smooth Criminal."
Gustin will actually be involved in two numbers beyond this, as well: "Bad" and an unnamed Jackson 5 single.
What other iconic MJ tracks will be covered on the episode? According to TV Guide's William Keck, who was on set for filming:
- Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' - Blaine
- Rock with You - Sebastian and the Warblers
- Bad - Artie, Santana, Blaine, Sebastian
- Scream - Artie and Mike
- Never Can Say Goodbye - Quinn
- Human Nature/ Nature Boy (mash-up of MJ and Nat King Cole) - Mercedes & Sam
- Ben - Finn, Rachel and Kurt
- I Just Can't Stop Loving You - Finn and Rachel
- Black or White - Artie, Rachel, Kurt, Mercedes and Santana

I hope Sebastian gets destroyed this episode. If that slushy picture is real, someones gonna throw a real bitchfit, hopefully Kurt because Chris has been practicing a punch for two weeks. I want to see that more than anything. Also, on a lighter note, is it wrong that I find it adorable that EVERYONE is taller than Darren? Cause he is too adorable for words!!!

Are you really complaining about Santana not gettting a solo? She is my favorite singer on the show but she is in at least 3 of the songs in this episode (and possibly in the Jackson 5 solo).

@Sez omg, I so didn't read that properly lol. My bad. Just so excited about the songs I mentioned. Totally unnecessary! I for one are sick of the mash-ups. They're overdoing it a bit. Just leave the songs as is. ESPECIALLY MJ's!!!

They ARE doing a mashup @DG, they're mashing up 'Human Nature' with 'Nature Boy' (I agree, no mashups are necessary though ;) ).
