A dance sequence to an unnamed My Chemical Romance song is set to be featured in an upcoming episode of Glee, according to an article from TV Guide [dot] com that has many My Chemical Romance fans in a mixed-emotions frenzy.

According TV Guide, the character Sue "will partake in a dance number set to a My Chemical Romance song," though it gives no further details about which song.

My Chemical Romance vocalist Gerard Way recently spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the prospect of an MCR/Glee collaboration:

"Who cares? Somebody once brought up Glee--like, would that bum me out? I say why get bummed about that? It's like the radio. I don’t watch the show, but I know it would be funny."

XoXo

Put me FIRMLY in the "Yay" camp. I'm a sporadic Glee-watcher and have been dying for an MCR song.

Instinctively, i was prepared to stomp all over this. I have bad experiences with bands I like becoming involved in pop-culture like Glee. But now that I think about it, you'd have to be pretty open-minded to get into the world of the Killjoys, and if one of the mindless Gleeks I know (only mindless in my PERSONAL experience) want to give it a shot, then I'm all for it. That being said, I think that the song is going to be a disaster. \_( "-)_/

I think that a lot of people are going to be okay with a new song, but I also think that a lot of people think it's going to be Teenagers or Welcome to the Black Parade.

The idea is awesome, I watch Glee and if it was just taking the piss out of the song in a funny way, I'd love it. I mean, everyone dances to My Chem, right?!

Get the feeling it'll be a viewer-friendly Teenagers. Or Na Na Na.

Done very badly.

I love how indifferent Gerard is about it.
Personally, I'm a little pissed about it, simply because I don't want MCR to become a huge part of that sort of culture, and to be totally ass-kissed because of it. Other than that though, I'm not entirely arsed.

I'm cautiously optimistic about this. I enjoy Glee, even though it has a habit of being horribly cheesy and inconsistent with the plot, simply because I believe the intentions of the show are good. I believe the performance will be good. The only thing that concerns me is the context that the song is used in, but if it's going to be Sing, I don't think there's much to worry about.

My Chemical Romance Mystery Twitter Accounts

Image
Shortly after the cryptic change of My Chemical Romance's website, a strange Twitter account called "Dr. Death Defying" appeared. It was followed by only NewsAGoGo and a friend of the band when it reached out mysteriously to one fan, who tipped everyone off. It was later followed (then subsequently unfollowed) by both Ray Toro and Frank Iero. Things got weird. Here's how it's going down so far... September 3, 2010 Dr. Death Defying : Look alive sunshine. Shits all fucked up in the zones. Dr. Death Defying : Words are gasoline, motorbabies Dr. Death Defying : @thankthevenom Look alive... Dr. Death Defying : @thesnackfairy There are more pills produced in Battery City than grains of sand in Zone 4. -- NewsAGoGo : complete blackout. generators on stand-by. noise outside. screaming. static. sounds like...like, robots dying... -- Dr. Death Defying : @thatkkbitch Answer: Popping nitros near Wolfblood Beach will break more than your heart, it'll ...

Dear Bob Bryar: In Honor of Dixie

Image
"I don't even know what happened to my best friend and miss her more than anything in the world," Bryar tells PEOPLE. "The devastation I feel is beyond words." Source: People[dot]com According to People[dot]com, My Chemical Romance drummer Bob Bryar recently received a devastating shock when, a week after sending his German Shepard mix companion to a trainer, he received her cremated remains without a clear explanation for the dog's death. The drummer is filing a lawsuit against the trainer, who has changed the story of Dixie's death multiple times and who acted without Bryar's permission to cremate her. My Chemical Romance fans are well-aware of how much Dixie meant to Bob, and some of us even became personally attached after his blog series and frequent twitter updates in which he shared stories of their drive across the country together to get home. Bob rescued Dixie from a Southern shelter, inspiring her well-fitting name and, from what we have s...
