Photo Flash: First Look - Jane Lynch Guests on THE GLEE PROJECT

On the Tuesday, July 17 episode of Oxygen's THE GLEE PROJECT, which focuses on the theme "Fearlessness", GLEE's Jane Lynch visits the show and challenges the remaining contenders to face their fears and inner doubts.  

In her role as Sue Sylvester on GLEE, the talented Lynch has transitioned from the mean-spirited “Cheerios” coach to a motivational role model for both glee club members and cheerleaders alike. Now she channels that character to encourage “The Glee Project” hopefuls to overcome both their personal and aspirational fears. Get a first look below!

Season two of the critically acclaimed "The Glee Project" returns with additional themes, all new music and more episodes. During the eleven week run of the series, "The Glee Project" contenders will be narrowed down through intensive rounds of workshops, singing, dancing and acting-based assignments as the creative forces of "Glee" carefully assess who has what it takes to be one of the next new faces of the award-winning show. Murphy will once again join casting director Robert Ulrich and choreographer and "Glee" co-producer Zach Woodlee in the final deliberations of each installment of the series. Vocal coach Nikki Anders, who mentored the contenders on-air in season one, joins the judging panel in season two each week as a permanent member. Additionally, continuing with the format of season one, "Glee" series regulars will appear on "The Glee Project" as guest mentors, including Lea Michele ("Rachel Berry") in the show’s premiere episode.

"The Glee Project" is produced by Ryan Murphy Television and Embassy Row with Ryan Murphy, Dante di Loreto, Michael Davies and Shauna Minoprio serving as executive producers.
