Her involvement with Glee wasn't that different. She went to the set to be a source of encouragement and inspritation, just as she will be doing with contestants on The Voice. And even though she was playing a (fictionalized) version of herself, the AHS gig was dabbling in acting, so I'm not sure why that is more palatable than being a mentor in a singing competition.
Oh, I realize that. I was being a little facetious because I remember a time when Stevie said something like she could have gotten out there and become involved in a lot of different things like Madonna did, but she decided not to do that, and I always admired her for that--AND because it seems as if a lot of stars today have no problem with putting their name of just about anything to make a buck. I never thought of Stevie that way, and I thought it gave some of us idealists out here hope that it is possible to follow Polonius's advice of "to thine own self be true."

In the case of Glee, I see it as a lot different because these are actors who are doing Stevie's songs--AHS was exciting because some of it was designed around the mystical aura of Stevie Nicks. I find these singing competitions lame, so I hate to see someone I adore within 50 feet of them.

Again--my apologies to people who like these shows. I have things I watch on tv that a lot of people think are stupid--myself included-ha!
