Glee Season 3 Casting News

Via TVLine

The first round of casting news relating to the upcoming season of Glee is out! There's been plenty of drama surrounding the much hyped new season so it'll be interesting to see how fans of the show react to this news. Among the new characters are a big cuddly boyfriend for Mercedes (Finally) and a new batch of mean girls:



Since by now half of the Cheerios are members of New Directions, Glee is enrolling a new crop of Mean Girls! Who’s who?
* Sugar is… well, she’s basically RHNJ’s Danielle Staub, only in high school. Affluent, self-confident and a godawful singer.
* Sheila, a modern-day Joan Jett, actually has her own pack of Blackhearts and the tats to go with ’em.
But that’s not all. As production on Season 3 gets underway next week, I’m hearing that the show is also on the lookout for a new linebacker, a gigantosaur by the name of Bubba. (What did you expect, a Kevin?) As previously revealed at Comic-Con, Bubba will introduced as Mercedes’ new beau, whom she started dating over the summer.
Also, sixtysomething actresses will be passing through to audition for the role of Nancy Bletheim, a geometry teacher who thinks the arts are for… well, anywhere but in school.
 
Hmm. I'm not really interested in all of these new characters. We're already getting the Glee Project "winner." How will they have the room for all of these people? Is Mercedes' man really going to be named Bubba? I hope there's a Forrest Gump joke thrown in there somewhere.
