Glee: First Look at Season 5's Beatlemania Premiere!

Glee Promo

It's finally time for two of the most powerful musical fandoms to collide.

Glee's epic two-part Beatles extravaganza is just around the corner (Sept. 26, to be exact!) and we've snagged you a first look at the amazing promo that is bursting with brand-new season 5 footage. Please excuse us; we're currently feeling all of the feelings right now.

All of our favorite McKinley High boys are back (and rocking the signature Beatles' bowl cut!) while the ladies are looking absolutely sensational in their '60s-inspired dresses. Don't believe us? Watch the clip below to see all the Glee Beatlemania (Gleetlemania?) for yourself!

Set to "All You Need Is Love," this 30-second promo reveals that we have plenty of Glee adventures headed our way in the epic two-part premiere. Newly crowned Principal Sue (Jane Lynch) is making life a living hell for recently demoted janitor Figgins as he yells, "You're a monster Sue Sylvester!"

Get ready for a trip back to Dalton Academy to see our favorite Warblers. Could Kurt's (Chris Colfer) adorably shocked face be a reaction to the world's most swoonworthy proposal? We're currently keeping our fingers crossed!

And, of course, we're going to be graced with a very happy-looking Rachel (Lea Michele) and Santana (Naya Rivera) as the ladies don their adorable new red waitress outfits. No sign of Demi Lovato just yet, but we know that she'll be making her grand debut in the second episode.

Don't miss the season five premiere of Glee when it airs Thursday, Sept. 26 at 9 p.m. on Fox!

Good news for Emily Blunt and John Krasinski! The Into the Woods actress is pregnant, her rep confirms to E! News. This will be the first child for the couple, who tied the knot in Italy in 2010.

Blunt has been, well, blunt about her desire to become a mother in previous interviews. Speaking to Manhattan magazine in 2012, she said, "We want to have children; I just don't know when yet. I'm just not sure about the timing of all of that. We're both from big families, so I think it's something we want."

When asked what makes her relationship with Krasinski work, the 30-year-old Brit got adorably flustered.

"This is what I find difficult about talking about my marriage: It's hard to sum up something that's so vital and means everything to you in a sound bite. Do you know what I mean? All I can say is that it's an effing blast," the Devil Wears Prada star said. "It's just great, and I'm so happy."

Us Weekly broke news of Blunt's pregnancy on Wednesday, Sept. 11.

First comes the official announcement, then comes the first look!

Hot on the heels of the official announcement that Jennifer Lopez and Harry Connick Jr. will be joining Keith Urban on American Idol's judging panel for its 13th season, Fox has released the first photo of the judges in action. 

Though the judging panel was just announced, the trio is already hard at work as the begin auditions in Boston on Tuesday. Don't Urban, Lopez and Connick make quite the attractive judging team?! 

SCOOP: Connick is "honored" to join the Fox reality hit!

The trio has also been tweeting about their first day on the job. Connick tweeted, "So excited to be on @AmericanIdol!!! i've already judged my wife and daughters like three times this morning. do they sell gavels on amazon?" Lopez tweeted a cute photo of her fellow judge Connick, with the caption, "'Don't judge me' #firstdayquotes."

Of joining the Fox reality hit's judging panel, Connick said, "I have always been a huge fan of American Idol and really enjoyed my time as a mentor on the show. And I am honored that they've asked me to be a judge this season. As an entertainer, I am truly excited to bring my perspective to American Idol, and to help emerging performers find their way."

And the judges' table isn't the only aspect of Idol getting a face-lift in season 13: Jimmy Iovine is vacating his role as the contestants' mentor with former judge Randy Jackson taking over. "Surprise, surprise! I am so happy to be back as part of this amazing show that started it all," Jackson said of returning to Idol.

iCarly's Jennette McCurdy Romanced Online by Detroit Pistons' Andre Drummond: See Their Adorable First Meetup!

This is really 2 cute.

Jennette McCurdy, best known for playing Sam on Nickelodeon's iCarly and the spin-off Sam & Cat, appears to have found romance online!

After months of being the subject of Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond's Women Crush Wednesday (#WCW) posts on Statigram, McCurdy started following him on Twitter.

She then reached out on Aug. 7, tweeting, "@DRE_DRUMMOND_ I wanna watch you play!" to which he replied, "@jennettemccurdy ill let you know when I play in LA!"

Well, they must have realized pretty quickly that neither wanted to wait that long to meet, considering the 2013-14 NBA season doesn't kick off until late October.

As chronicled by the Detroit Free Press, which first noticed the attention being paid by Drummond to McCurdy, the 20-year-old athlete started sending the 21-year-old actress gifts, such as flowers and a teddy bear, which she then proudly showed off via social media over the past month.

McCurdy also showed off a pic of Drummond for #ManCrushMonday last week.

And after a few weeks of this, they finally met up in person on her home court, as evidenced by various tweets and cozy pictures posted online throughout Labor Day weekend.

"With @DRE_DRUMMOND_ ahhhh!!!" McCurdy tweeted on Thursday. 

"Words can't explain...Add your own caption," Drummond then wrote on Friday along with a pic of him giving her a piggyback ride—which, yes, was an easy feat considering he's 6-foot-10 and her IMDb-listed height is 5-foot-2. 

According to Twitter (we're loving this transparency), the weekend also included laser tag, a trip to Disneyland and McCurdy happily going to bed wearing a hat that Drummond gave her.

"Beverly Hillsing it with @andredrummond0,"she wrote alongside another cute selfie-for-two that was posted just yesterday.

If somehow this is not a romantic relationship, then it's at least the beginning of a positively adorable friendship.

She and Stagliano (brother of former Bachelorette contestant Michael Stagliano) tied the knot on Oct. 22, 2011, in Georgia. Her big premarital bash in Las Vegas was featured on an episode of Oxygen's My Bachelorette Party.

Pappas was briefly engaged to Jesse Csincsak after accepting his proposal at the end of the fourth season of The Bachelorette. They broke up in 2009 and, just a few months later, she met her future husband at the season-five taping of The Bachelorette: The Men Tell All special.

The expectant mom told People, which first reported the pregnancy news, that her and Stagliano's first child is due Feb. 8—four days after her hubby's birthday.

"I told him all he's getting for his birthday this year is a baby!" Pappas joked.

Congratulations to the parents-to-be!
