Britney set to get the 'Glee' treatment

BRITNEY Spears is the latest pop star to be getting the "Glee" treatment.

"We are writing a Britney Spears episode," Ryan Murphy, creator of the hit musical comedy TV show, told celebrity news show "Entertainment Tonight."

It's not clear whether Spears, 28, a pop music phenomenon of the early 2000s with hits "Oops! ... I Did It Again" and "Piece of Me," would appear in the episode planned for the autumn season.

"Glee" based two episodes earlier this year on the music of Madonna and Lady Gaga but neither singer appeared on the show.

"Glee," about high school students who sing cover versions of pop, Broadway and hip-hop tunes, was one of the most-talked about TV programs of the past year.

It produced three hit albums of music while also sending sales soaring for the original artists whose music was featured.
