Can Idina Menzel Be Rachel’s Mom On ‘Glee’?

Celebrity casting news is nothing new with Glee — Neil Patrick Harris and Jennifer Lopez are among the stars who have already signed on to guest star — but rumors about Idina Menzel’s guest role have us giddy with excitement.

The show has already announced that Idina will play the director of rival glee club Vocal Adrenaline, but the New York Daily News’s Rush & Molloy hints that the Broadway star’s character may also be Lea Michele’s character’s biological mom. Perhaps fittingly, one of Lea’s big numbers on Glee has been “Defying Gravity,” a song from Wicked made popular by Idina. And, the two women do look similar as well. We love the idea of Rachel dealing with meeting her mom. What do you think about this possible plot development?
