Jessica Sanchez Nearing Deal to Appear on Glee Season 4
It looks like Fox is nearing a deal to keep all the great singing in the family.
According to Michael Ausiello of TV Line, Jessica Sanchez is closing in on a deal to appear on multiple Glee Season 4 episodes. It's unclear at the moment what role the American Idol Season 11 runner-up would take on, but she'd likely debut at midseason.
Sanchez - who competed on America's Got Talent in 2006 but has never acted before - would either be involved with the New Directions in Ohio, or in the Rachel-based NYC storyline that will also feature guest stars Kate Hudson and Sarah Jessica Parker.
We'll update this casting scoop when more news breaks, but react now Gleeks: Do you want to see Sanchez on board? And who would win a ballad-off, her or Mercedes?

Don't want her to join glee.. I just think she's too good for that show.. but just a guest star would be nice.. at least I can watch her on tv again :) I would definitely watch the episodes she'll be on :p but she needs to put out an album first..

@farsia: We never see her act so it's not fair to judge her acting skills this early. I'm so glad they cast her because she is the underdog indeed!

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i like her and she has a voice that is cosmic but she doesn't make me feel anything, she is very much a singer not a singer/actor. don't kill me, just my opinion.

Jessica Sanchez and Mercedes are very good singers. but I think Jessica Sanchez would win the ballad off against Mercedes. Jessicas voice is AMAZING.
