Are you guys baiting me into slamming Stevie?

She didn't appear on Glee because they didn't ask
her to. She hung around a studio backstage to
encourage kids, and that's a nice thing to do. But
you can't tell me she didn't want something for it.
Like maybe a guest appearance on the actual show.
And that's what I meant by not knowing whether it
was worse to be on the show (sell out). Or to not
be on (not invited). Almost groveling. Which is worse?

"Cashing in big-time", I'm not so sure about that either.
While I have no idea what the show had to pay to use
their songs, the "resurgence on the Billboard Chart" would
probably a paltry amount to notice in their bank accounts.
It doesn't take much to appear in the Top 20 anymore.
