Matthew Morrison Wowed by News of Adam Lambert's Glee Gig; Suggests 'Rock Out' Duets

The Internet is buzzing that American Idol alum Adam Lambert will join season five of TV's Glee. Broadway.com caught up with Glee’s Emmy-nominated star Matthew Morrison and broke the casting news to him.

“Wow,” he exclaimed. “That’s cool news!”

Morrison has dueted with such notable Glee guest stars as Kristin Chenoweth, Gwyneth Paltrow, Idina Menzel and Neil Patrick Harris, so we wanted to know which song he'd like to rock out to with the American Idol runner-up. 

“One of my favorite songs I got to rock out on was 'Dream On' with Neil Patrick Harris, so an Aerosmith song would be cool,” the recently engaged star told Broadway.com. “Coldplay would be really fun; it’s not much of a rock-out song, but 'Paradise' or 'Viva La Vida.'”
