Steve Nicks Visits The Set Of "Glee"!
 
Steve Nicks Visits The Set Of "Glee"!

Legendary rocker Stevie Nicks visited the set of "Glee" Tuesday, TooFab has exclusively confirmed--but don't expect to see her the show quite yet.

"Steve Nicks visited the set yesterday," her rep told TooFab Wednesday, "but she is not 'on the show.'"

But that doesn't mean Nicks isn't up for a cameo. "We can of course hope and dream of a day when that could happen," adds her rep.

Nicks, who performs with Fleetwood Mac and had a successful solo career of her own, stopped by the studio yesterday, while guest stars Gwyneth Paltrow and John Stamos were also on-set.

The show's cast members were definitely thrilled to have Nicks there: After filming, Dianna Agron ("Quinn") tweeted "Gwyneth Paltrow and Stevie Nicks. Wonderful and unexpected day" with co-star Ashley Fink ("Lauren Zizes") tweeting, "Paltrow, Stamos, Stevie Nicks ... Pinch me."

Paltrow and the gang are rumored to sing "Landslide" during an upcoming episode.

I knew there was something going on there at Glee & Stevie!!

CelticGypsy 02-09-2011 04:50 PM

I love this show! Some of those kids have great voices! Excited they're going to sing some of her songs. It would be much better if they had a Stevie-Sue S. knockdown fight scene. haha You know those cute, little TUSK fight moves she makes with Lindsey in concert. Except knock out Sue, the PE teacher. I am not fond of PE teachers:laugh: With Stevie winning, of course:nod::laugh:

I'm not entirely excited about Landslide because unless they do an a capella arrangement of it, I don't think they would do it justice at all.

However, the very fact that this is getting Stevie's name out there to an audience who may be unfamiliar with her is good news! So yay. Plus I love that all of the Glee kids were excited to meet her.

That'd be cool if she was on there. Still won't make the show good, though. :lol:

Agreed!! Anything to get Stevie's name out there to the younger people...even though they could have picked an up-beat song lol

sleepless child 02-09-2011 07:47 PM

I am very excited about this. Stevie should go on Glee. this is a show that celebrates music and she would be a great on here. I wonder how her cameo would be. Would she play herself? Or a "stevie Nickish" type teacher perhaps? :lol:

I'm guessing it would be a VERY brief cameo. Since they're working on the episode with her song in it now, it's probably completely written, so we're not looking at a whole subplot. I imagine it would be along the lines of Brittney's appearance, where she popped up at the end of her song and winked.

Christopher 02-09-2011 10:52 PM

I just pray if Landslide is performed, that the writer's at Glee somehow play tribute to Stevie & sneak in a clever FM, or preferably Stevie Nicks reference, so that younger viewers don't immediately think "Oh Cool! Glee's doing a Dixie Chicks song":rolleyes:Ugh!

I was really counting on the Glee cast performing some of Stevie's solo material. I could see an all out attitude cover of Stand Back easily! Besides how hard would it be to pull off an entire Stevie themed show? The easiest and most obvious would be to do all out "Rumours" themed show complete with a partner-swapping comedy/drama with tongue firmly in cheek episode of them doing the hits of FM's soap opera heyday :thumbsup:

Same here. I feel like the whole reason Stevie has any interest in going on the show is to get her name out there, not Fleetwood Mac's! I know she wrote Landslide, but many young people will think it was the Dixie Chicks, and if they somehow happen to figure out that it was actually Fleetwood Mac, I doubt they will look much further to see that Stevie Nicks wrote it. I'm hoping they do more than just Landslide, but if not, the name Stevie Nicks better fly out of someone's mouth or I am going to be pissed!

mylittledemon 02-09-2011 11:48 PM

she probably is a fan (God knows why) of the show, perhaps? That and she's got a new album to promote soon ;)

gypsy4life 02-10-2011 12:04 AM

I have never seen an episode of GLEE, but, my little cousins love it, and if Stevie can get some recognition from it..then cool!

I would love this, but they would never do a Stevie episode. She doesn't have the massive youth appeal of Brittney or Gaga, and her brand isn't as big as Madonna's.
I do think the idea of a Rumours episode has legs, though. It does seem like the kind of challenge Schu would throw at the kids, and could easily be woven into a plot for the main couples. The only issue is that the show generally tries to keep a balance between classic and contemporary in each episode, so I don't know whether they'd go for an entire show from 1977...

Didn't they do a whole episode with Journey songs? I would say they have nearly zero appeal with the youth of today... :shrug:

that was a throwback to their first hit on the show. Plus, in my experience teenagers these days are generally obsessed with Don't Stop Believing. They played it at my prom and then at my winter dance and everyone went nuts both times.

mylittledemon 02-10-2011 12:35 AM

well, the 80s always makes a comeback... she had plenty of good 80s material to be remembered, and worth of re-introducing it to todays youth

Agreed! At frat parties people go ALL OUT for Don't Stop Believing. It's seriously one of the favorites.

And I don't think it was a whole Journey episode--just a Journey medley (might be off on that one). And yeah, it was because Journey had been such a huge hit for them in the pilot.

Tango 02-10-2011 12:51 AM

Don't you recall this being in the news, not so long ago? Landslide was great! Stevie loved it too. I can imagine it:


mylittledemon 02-10-2011 12:55 AM

yeah but to say they'll "never do" a Stevie episode? What other reason would she have for visiting the set? Come on, now. :lol:

Phoenix 02-10-2011 01:07 AM

People who are worried about kids and teens thinking landslide is a dicksy chicks song need to get a clue.THAT WAS ALMOST A DECADE AGO!!!!!! No one under the age of 18 will think of them. And those 27 and older will remember the dance. Or. Have heard the Original. YET-ONE-MORE CONCERN RESOLVED.

Agree to disagree? :shrug: Just saying, her appeal is different from the performers they've chosen to do entire episodes around. Yes, many adults watch the show, but Ryan Murphy has made it fairly clear his goal is to inspire a love of music in the young teen set. He'll throw the boomers a bone, but I don't see him devoting an entire episode to someone many in his target audience haven't even heard of. Anything's possible, but I really, really don't see an entire Stevie ep happening. I think she was only visiting to encourage the idea of a cameo, and maybe get a little press.
The most I could see is something similar to what Olivia Newton-John did. She didn't have her own episode, but they re-did her video and gave her a hilarious subplot. Something comparable would be great for Stevie.

What's funny about what you just said is that I refer to that as "the Olivia Newton john" eppisode.

I guess it depends on how you define a special ep? Her appearance was awesome and definitely memorable, but it they only played one of her songs. I can totally see that she owned that show and it could be considered the ONJ episode, but I'm not inclined to group it with the Madonna, Brittney, and Gaga eps. And I've had the impression that's what some are hoping for--an episode of all Stevie or FM music.

greendaze5 02-10-2011 10:07 AM

If there is indeed going to be a FM/SN theme one day, the cast can replicate the 'Stand Back' video in all its glory like they did Madonna's 'Vogue'.

The cast can dress up as the cheesy 80's background dancers while Finn (Cory Monteith) plays the Brad Jeffries part.

Rachel (Lea Michele), in a blond wig, chiffon, and platforms, can be Stevie - treadmill and all. :laugh:

Or would Sue (Jane Lynch) make a better Stevie? :lol:

vivfox 02-10-2011 10:08 AM

Oh. Em. Glee!!!!

Of all the times we've dream of visiting McKinley High, never have we ever wanted to be there more than yesterday.

According to the cast, Glee was visited by Stevie Nicks yesterday, as they were shooting scenes with Gwyneth Paltrow. Apparently, her visit was a surprise to the kids as Dianna Agron raved on her Twitter that it was a "wonderful and unexpected day."

The gang is rumored to be singing Landslide with Gwyn in a future episode, but don't expect Stevie to jump in a the chorus. We're told Stevie didn't film any scenes during her visit and there are no plans for her to in the near future. (Boo!)

But fear not! When her rep was reached for comment, he gave us a glimmer of hope. He told sources, "We can of course hope and dream of a day when that could happen."

Wishing, hoping, praying and dreaming for that everyday! But we understand; she has an album and a tour coming up. Stevie is very busy.

But never forget, Ryan Murphy, she's game for it! Make sure to revisit this sometime soon! Very soon!

Dianna Agron has revealed that Stevie Nicks made her cry on the set of TV show Glee.

The 24-year-old is best known for her portrayal of high school cheerleader Quinn Fabray on the hit American series. The actress is now starring in the film I Am Number Four alongside boyfriend Alex Pettyfer.

The pretty blonde is a strong supporter of arts education in schools and she was overcome with emotion when 62-year-old singer-songwriter Stevie expressed its importance in a speech given while the cast of Glee were filming.

"We had the pleasure of Stevie Nicks being on set yesterday,” Dianna told ET.

“And she kind of made us all cry because she came and she said, 'If I hadn't been a musician, I would have been a teacher. And I would've hoped to send this message to kids - that although there are very important things like math and science and learning, you know, kind of the things that get you through life, there's also you need to find joy. And whether that's through music or dance or things like that, you need to have outlets in your life.'"

The show's cast members were definitely thrilled to have Nicks there: After filming, Dianna Agron ("Quinn") tweeted "Gwyneth Paltrow and Stevie Nicks. Wonderful and unexpected day" with co-star Ashley Fink ("Lauren Zizes") tweeting, "Paltrow, Stamos, Stevie Nicks ... Pinch me."

Paltrow and the gang are rumored to sing "Landslide" during an upcoming episode.


DNW them to ruin Landslide with their over singing and overproduction. In fact, just let Nicks sing it herself.

I hate to play devil's advocate, but that's not entirely true. I'm 17 and when I suggested Landslide as one of the songs for our graduation, everyone acted like they didn't know what I was talking about, so I played it and they all said, "Didn't the Dixie Chicks sing that?" I was like 10 when their version came out. To say people under 18 won't remember that is like saying people under 18 won't remember Backstreet Boys or old Britney Spears music.

However, I don't really see it being that much of an issue anyway. I'm sure they would mention FM/Stevie at some point, and if not, reviewers of the episode will be sure to mention the original artist.

This is not entirely right. Landslide the single by Fleetwood Mac went gold last year. It's only the second single ever to go gold by Fleetwood Mac. People obviously know who she is.

To be entirely honest I'm not completely sure how this relates specifically to my anecdote. It's an actual event that happened to me?

I'm specifically talking about teenagers.... I didn't mean to say people don't know who she is, just that a lot of my peers who are not fans of hers may very well associate Landslide with the Dixie Chicks, because that cover was released in their lifetime and in their memory, while the original (and to an extent, the Dance version) was not.

I only hope that the use of the song on Glee will introduce her to an audience who may not be familiar with her, and perhaps spark an interest. That's all.

amoscascott 02-10-2011 09:18 PM

Not sure if Gwyneth is doing more than one more appearence or not, but I know that she will be on the march 8th show, so hopefully this will have landslide on it. Also heard that Gwyneth will be doing the Prince song Kiss during this show as well.

Jondalar 02-10-2011 09:28 PM

Why in the hell would she visit a set if she wasn't doing an appearance of some sort. Doesn't make sense at all.

Exactly! I'm wondering if she is going to be on the episode after the Landslide one or if she is coming back later this week to film a scene for this episode in which she is in? I just don't understand why they would waste their time telling Stevie when and where they were filming Landslide and she would waste her time to stroll up there and them not stick her in front of the camera for 15 seconds.

I can vouch for this. I'm a Senior in high school too.
I was talking to my friends at lunch a couple months ago and someone said "well I'm getting older" so I sang out "and I'm getting older, too"

Then my entire lunch table goes "THATS LANDSLIDE BY THE DIXIE CHICKS!!"


Public Service Announcement for the ledge: Teens of Today do, infact, think Landslide was penned by the Dixie Chicks ;)
