In person, Glee star (and this week’s EW cover subject) Jane Lynch is exactly the opposite of Sue Sylvester: warm, funny, and friendly. And now she’s a bona fide star: During EW’s photo shoot in New York’s West Village, the actress was mobbed like a rock star by fans clamoring to take a photo with Lynch. Even Oscar-winner Philip Seymour Hoffman stopped to watch the action. The actress sat down with EW after her photo shoot to discuss her inspiration for Sue, remaking Madonna’s “Vogue” video, her favorite Glee character (hint: it ain’t Sue), and the epic June 8 season finale (spoiler alert!).
Love, love, LOVE Jane Lynch!
Jane Lynch for Queen of the World!
Bohemian Rhapsody with Jesse St. James? Ahhhhhh I’m so thrilled
Does that mean Josh Groban will play himself and be a judge?
Yes, I think this spoiler has already gotten out there.
Groban and Oliva Newton-John.
Groban would be amazing to see.
i love brittany too jane
This interview proves that Jane Lynch is one of the nicest people ever. LOVED her in Party Down, and she deserves all the amazing success she’s had so far. Girl is hilarious! Jane Lynch needs an emmy nod like nobody’s business.
So how does Jesse St James end up back in Vocal Adrenaline? I really thought he would just go back there once his mission was accomplished with Rachel, but if his mission was giving her the info on her mom rather than what I assumed (to ruin her just in time for nationals), his motivation for leaving is more of a question.
I don’t know, but highly suspect, Rachel will join Vocal Adrenaline in order to be with her mom, thus paving the way for Jesse to go back as well. (She won’t stay there, of course, but I predict that if she does leave New Directions, it’ll happen in the finale.)
That would make a lot of sense since there’s a clip out of Santana and Finn singing Don’t Stop Believin’.
Just an Emmy? How about EGOT! I think Jane could do it.
Loves me some Jane Lynch
i love brittany too!!!
Me, too! I’m feeling super validated lately that Jane Lynch and Joss Whedon’s favorite character is the same as mine.
I adore her. ADORE her.
Oral Fixation? Best Glee club name ever!
“Aural”.
Where are you guys interviewing her? It looks like she’s being held captive in some dude’s dirty basement.
Josh Groban and Olivia Newton-John for celebrity judges?
I’m so happy for Jane Lynch. I have been a fan of hers for a lot of years. She is so deserving of all the adoration! Simply brillant!
