Prince Allows ?Glee? To Use His Song ?Kiss?

Prince Allows ?Glee? To Use His Song ?Kiss?

Guest Star Gwyneth Paltrow Will Sing It

Early last month we learned that Gwyneth Paltrow will be reprising her role as Holly Holliday on Glee and today we learn that one of the songs she will perform on the show will be none other than Prince?s iconic 80?s hit Kiss. As you may or may not know, Prince is notoriously stingy about letting other people record his music ? apparently, the purple one has a soft spot for Glee ? or Gweynth :)

After delivering a crazily popular performance of Cee Lo?s ?Forget You? on Glee, Gwyneth Paltrow is set to make a second appearance on the hit FOX show. And she?s got some ace material to perform this time around: The actress will reportedly cover Prince?s 1986 ?Kiss,? according to TVLine. The show will air on March 8. Paltrow will team up with actor Matthew Morrison for the Prince cover, which TVLine says will be a ?sexed up,? ?too hot for TV? version of the song. (Is it even possible to make a sexier version than Prince?s original?) Plotwise, Paltrow?s character (substitute teacher Holly Holiday) returns to McKinley High and becomes romantically entagled with Morrison?s Mr. Schuester.

Now that Prince has agreed to let one of his songs be used on Glee, creator Ryan Murphy won?t be forced to tell him to ?Fuck off? or call him an ?Asshole? like he did to Kings of Leon who continue to refuse to let Glee record their music. On the one hand, I?m pretty surprised that Prince is letting the show use his song ? then again, if Madonna and Michael Jackson have let their music be used on the show, then it makes sense that Prince (the their part of the Holy Pop Trinity of the 80?s) would too. Kiss is one of my fave Prince songs ?

? let?s hope Glee and Gwyneth in particular don?t eff it up. What do y?all think ? are you excited to hear this Prince classic on Glee?
