Ricky Martin Heading to 'Glee'?
Ricky Martin is in talks to return to TV with a guest role on 'Glee.'
According to TVLine, Martin will play a Spanish teacher. Naturally, Martin will headline two musical numbers on the hit Fox series.
It seems as if 'Glee' is lifting its "no guest star" ban for Martin. In June, series co-creator Ryan Murphy said the show was going back to basics.
"We're not going to have any guest stars," Murphy told TVLine. "And we're going to do fewer songs." Since then, Idina Menzel rejoined the cast for a mult-episode arc and several 'Glee Project' cast members made their 'Glee' debut.
This is Martin's first scripted acting role (where he's not playing himself) since 1996's 'Barefoot in Paradise.' Martin spent two years on 'General Hospital' in the mid-1990s before hitting it big as a solo artist. His 'Glee' episode is set to air in January.
