In other Lady Antebellum news, Entertainment Weekly is reporting that the Capitol trio will be getting the Glee treatment for the hit Fox show’s post-Super Bowl episode. The episode, which will also feature Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” and songs by Black Eyed Peas and Katy Perry, will reportedly be the most expensive in Glee history. Lady A will be only the second country artist to be covered on Glee after Broadway star Kristen Chenowith took on Carrie Underwood’s “Last Name” in Season 1.
