the cast of Glee (featuring Gwyneth Paltrow) — “Forget You”
(from Glee, The Music: Volume 4) —

Over the past several weeks, A and I have fallen into a pattern of behavior which we both find mutually beneficial: on Tuesday nights, he retires to the bedroom to watch Glee alone (which is to say, without me at his side exasperating him with an endless barrage of snide, snippy comments), and then he leaves each episode on the DVR so that I can access it at my leisure and watch the interesting moments without having to slog through all the irritating ones in real time. This week’s installment, which guest starred Oscar-winning actress Paltrow as an overly eager substitute teacher, was a fun, frothy romp, highlighted by Gwyneth’s fabulously funky (and, of course, tamed for television) take on Cee-Lo’s recent smash.
(If you saw her film Duets a decade ago, you know without doubt the girl’s got some decent pipes, but what a revelation to learn that she’s also got some pretty fine moves as well.)

names dropped with reckless abandon: "Glee", A, Cee-Lo Green, Gwyneth Paltrow
