Jane Lynch Is A Mom In iCarly

The incomparable Jane Lynch is keeping busy. Aside from her breakout roll in 'Glee,' she's worked on 'The Cleveland Show,' 'Neighbors from Hell' and made time to return to 'Party Down' for its final episode.

Now she's heading to Nickelodeon for a guest role on their No. 1 show, 'iCarly,' according to The Ausiello Files.

While Carly's best friend Sam (Jennette McCurdy) is always seen at Carly's house, she does have a home of her own, and a mother she talks about but has never been seen on the show. That won't be the case for long, as Lynch has been perfectly cast in that role for an episode that begins filming this week.

While it's not clear what kind of demeanor the character will have, we can already see a "family resemblance" between Sam Puckett and Sue Sylvester, Lynch's mean cheerleading coach on 'Glee.' Both are aggressive, strong, opinionated, a little frightening and may have a few screws loose.

The role should bring Lynch's brilliance to a whole new audience base, and she might even pull some of them back to 'Glee' with her. Maybe she can convince 'iCarly star Miranda Cosgrove, who already has a recording career, to return the favor.

Bieber Grossed Out by Mother's Playboy Rumor

Justin Bieber is obviously annoyed by the circulating rumor that his mother Pattie Lynn Malette was pondering over Playboy magazine's offer for her to pose topless in a sexy spread. After his mother and rep came out with a denial to the false report, the pop sensation himself spilled his thought on the matter through his Twitter account.

"My mom is a moral woman...let's just leave that one for what it is...because that rumor just grossed and weirded me out...," the 16-year-old "Somebody to Love" singer tweeted on Tuesday, June 29. The message was one of many tweets the Usher's protege posted on Twitter in addressing "some crazy rumors" about him.

Beside stating his ground on the Playboy rumor, Justin also slammed several other faux reports, including the one that said he is dead. "Im not dead. I had to check on this one...but it turns out Im alive," he commented. In another tweet, he stated, "I have not joined the Illuminati or any other cult. Im a christian and I pray before every show and am thankful for every blessing."

Days earlier, celebrity blogger Zack Taylor reported that Justin's 34-year-old mom has been offered $50,000 to strip off her clothes in front of the camera for Playboy. However, the false speculation was quick to be denied by Pattie Lynn herself. Taking it to her Twitter, she debunked the story, "PLAYBOY!? Heavens No, HELL NO! Heavens AND Hell NO! Thx but no thx!".
