“Inside the Actors Studio” always gives us a fresh perspective on our favorite casts, so we’re looking forward to the April 9 episode (8 p.m. EST on Bravo) to get to know “Glee” stars Matthew Morrison, Lea Michele, Chris Colfer, Jane Lynch, and Cory Monteith — and co-creator Ryan Murphy. Check out some of the fun tidbits below!

Lea Michele on her audition experience: “I was listening to music and singing ‘On My Own’ in the car and about to pull into the Fox lot and totaled my car at the time. I’m from New York and was driving in LA. I ran up the lot pulling glass out of my hair, and I had nicks on my body. I ran into the building – and exactly what Rachel Berry would have done – they were like, you don’t need to audition today! And I said, there is no way that I’m not auditioning. They didn’t even believe I got in a car wreck!”

Cue up “Graduation (Friends Forever)” by Vitamin C (which the Glee kids will hopefully cover later this season to send off seniors Kurt, Rachel, and Finn) and flip through the Official William McKinley High School Yearbook! It may look like a regular yearbook on the outside, but apparently McKinley gossip columnist Jacob Ben Israel had full editorial control, since the theme is — not surprisingly — all glee club all the time. The book hits stores May 1 from Little, Brown, but in the meantime, EW has an exclusive peek at the cover, spreads on Rachel and Blaine, some fun “Most Likely To…” pages, a very helpful “Hookup Chart,” and more. Read on, and H.A.G.S.! source

On April 9, Ryan Murphy, Lea Michele, Chris Colfer, Jane Lynch and Matthew Morrison go Inside The Actors Studio as the Bravo series chronicles the creation, casting and production of the global phenomenon known as Glee!

TheInsider.com has an exclusive sneak peek at the hour-long special, which reveals exactly how Ryan Murphy became attached to the show while he was “naked as a jaybird” and when Sue Sylvester was added to the script.

The Glee edition of Inside The Actors Studio airs April 9 at 8 p.m. on Bravo.

Rachel and Kurt’s post-McKinley fate rests in Whoopi Goldberg‘s hands.

Glee sources confirm to TVLine exclusively that the Oscar winning actress-turned-View master has signed on for an extremely pivotal multi-episode arc.

Goldberg will play Carmen Tibideaux, a theatrical grande dame and a professor at New York Academy of the Dramatic Arts (NYADA) who travels to Ohio to preside over Kurt and Rachel’s auditions — and apparently she sticks around long enough to deliver a verdict: I’m told she’ll appear in roughly three episodes, the first of which is set to air on May 1. (Glee‘s season finale is set for May 22.)

Fun fact: The New York-based Goldberg accepted the gig despite her well documented fear of flying (Gleeshoots in Los Angeles). Of course, last month she headed West to shoot an episode of The Middle playing Sue’s guidance counselor (it airs May 2), so perhaps she’s developing a friendlier relationship with the skies?
