Meltdown On The Set As Ricky Martin Joins ‘Glee’!

Ricky Martin is guest starring as the Spanish teacher this Tuesday night on an all-new episode of Glee. He will be playing “David Martinez” who recently became a Spanish teacher but was previously a tooth model.

The entire Glee cast was excited to have him on set. As Chris Colfer put it, “I have never seen in my three years of Glee, I have never seen a guest star walk onto set and literally you have to mop the floor of everyone that they meet, because everyone is just melting around him. Everyone, everyone…even Cory Monteith.” I guess Ricky’s good looks says it all!

So what can you look forward to? New Directions will be performing LMFAO’s “Sexy and I Know It,” in English & Spanish and what’s funny is that’s how Ricky Martin’s character first introduces himself to the Glee club, “Hi nice to meet you. I am sexy and I know it, and let’s dance. And I am going to tell you how to do it.” Ricky Martin was excited about performing this song in particular because he says it has a very special message, “What I loved about ‘Sexy and I Know It is me telling them how important it is to believe in yourself. And that is a message that should be out there constantly for teenagers. It is about self-esteem, it is about dignity.” You can also expect to see Matthew Morrison’s character, Will Schuester, performing in a full Matador outfit – Ole! We recently caught up with Harry Shum Jr. to talk about Ricky Martin and what it was like to have him on set. Harry also gave his thoughts on Ricky’s infamous dance moves. He wouldn’t even dare to attempt a dance-off!
