Shirley MacLaine is headed to The Big Apple.

According to TV Line, the veteran actress will appear on multiple episodes of Glee Season 5 as a New York socialite who takes a shine to recent transplant Blaine.

Look for the Oscar winner to debut later this month and to do everything in her power to turn this former New Directions member into a superstar.

A long-time movie star, MacLaine recurred on the small screen last year as Lady Grantham’s mother Martha on Downton Abbey Season 4.
