britneyglee10.jpg It's official: Glee producers have confirmed that they have the green light on a Britney-themed episode.

"We are writing a Britney Spears episode," Ryan Murphy, creator of the hit TV program told The Hollywood Reporter. We've heard rumblings of this for some time, but there was no word from the show until now.

Glee earned a whopping 19 Emmy nominations on Thursday, based on two episodes featuring the music of Madonna and Lady Gaga. Neither of the singers appeared on the show so it's unclear whether or not the pop princess will be a part of her episode, but let's keep our fingers crossed!
