Yesterday, Fox announced that pop superstar Britney Spears would be joining their reality competition The X-Factor as a judge and that Glee would follow X-Factor‘s results show on Thursdays.

Now comes even more exciting Britney/Glee news: EW has exclusively learned that Glee is planning a second Britney Spears tribute for the fall! Set to be the second episode of the series’ fourth season, this hour homage to Brit Brit will feature eight of her songs but won’t focus on the character of Brittany (Heather Morris) as the first tribute did (Spears is not scheduled to appear in the episode as of now but producers are hoping to work out a deal). The reason for the Spears hour is because the network is so excited about the pairing of a Spears/X-Factor with Glee on Thursday nights. It also certainly doesn’t hurt that the original Britney tribute, which aired early in the second season, is still one of Glee’s highest-rated episode to date.
In other Glee news, Chris Colfer let it slip today on Live! With Kelly that the newly announced guest-star Sarah Jessica Parker would be playing Kurt’s mentor on the fourth season. EW has now learned that Kate Hudson, the other big star set for a Glee arc next season, will be playing a similar mentor-type role to Rachel Berry (Lea Michele). Hudson’s role will have her singing but will also be very dance-heavy, which the actress should be able to easily handle as evidenced by her performance in the movie musical Nine.

Makes sense since the first Britney tribute gave Glee their highest ratings of all time.

Another tribute? Only the ****ing Queen of Pop.

Again. Well, good for Britney, I guess.

And the slayage continues

I see everyone wants to use Brit for higher ratings.

The new era is just behind the corner.

They just want to get her in the episode and use her for ratings, GLEE ain't slick.

We won't hold it against them.

Glee though

[YoYo]

I have to sit through another episode of Glee?

Good for her

The Britney episode was probably the only one that I really enjoyed, other than the Madonna one.

I found the rest of the tributes to be lazy and weak, especially the Michael Jackson one

I couldn't sit through the first one. I only watched Britney's 1 minute clips on their YouTube channel.

Till the World Ends will be performed on Glee and will have the Twister Dance Commercial --- plus natural promotion of December 21, 2012.

We're coming for that #1 on the Hot 100, a year later.

Only the Queen.
