On 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' (weekdays, syndicated), Ellen DeGeneres shows a picture of Chord Overstreet as Rocky in 'Glee's' tribute to 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show.'

'Glee' Star Jayma Mays Is So 'Not Cool' (VIDEO)
by Oliver Miller, posted Nov 4th 2010 6:08AM
The musical drama 'Glee' is pretty hip right now. But does that coolness transfer over to one of the show's stars? On 'The Late Late Show' (weeknights, 12:37AM ET on CBS), Craig Ferguson talked with Jayma Mays -- who plays the OCD-afflicted guidance counselor on 'Glee.' While asking Jayma about her odd first name, Craig learned that Jayma's parents were wannabe hippies who simply made the name up. The hippie thing was strike one against Ms. Mays (the host isn't a fan of them). "Not cool," he said.
Craig gave Jayma another chance to show she was "cool." He placed a dollar bill on his desk and told the actress not to steal it. Unfortunately, Jayma failed this test as well.

On the latest 'Chelsea Lately' (weeknights, 11PM ET on E!) host Chelsea Handler revealed what she was looking for in a man. Although Chelsea is rumored to be currently dating rapper 50 Cent, her description of an ideal mate was slightly different from her current supposed "partner."Handler welcomed guest Julian McMahon onto her show. And she seemed a bit smitten with the Australian actor. McMahon discussed his appearance in an upcoming charity performance of 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show.' Among his co-stars are cast members from 'Glee,' and actor Danny DeVito. When DeVito's name was mentioned, Chelsea seemed to perk up. "I like that little 'nugget,'" she said.
Who Does 'Time Warp' Better: Drew Carey or the Cast of 'Glee?'

Earlier this week, 'Glee' fans were happy to watch a "leaked" video featuring the full rendition of 'Time Warp' that the cast will perform on Tuesday's episode saluting 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show.' Some may think this is the first time the classic rock number has been performed by a television show cast outside of the original 1975 film ... and they would be wrong.
In fact, while many of the 'Glee' stars were still in grade school, Drew Carey was doing the 'Time Warp' on his own show -- complete with elaborate costumes and choreographed dance routines.

MTV plans remake of The Rocky Horror Picture Show
by Allison Waldman, posted Aug 15th 2008 12:01PM
Generally speaking, I'm not an anti-remake person. There are times when a remake is perfectly acceptable and oftentimes can improve upon the best of the original, like Battlestar Galactica, for instance. However -- you knew that was coming, didn't you? -- this remake just sounds like a disaster in the making. MTV is going to turn The Rocky Horror Picture Show into a TV movie. They will take the 1975 cult classic sci-fi, horror musical spoof and give it a 2008 spin.Oh, please! You cannot strike lightning twice. Rocky Horror was a phenomenon. It was a cult classic because the people who found and supported the movie in all those midnight movie showings felt like they were part of a "with it" crowd. It was like we had all found a diamond in the rough, a film that Hollywood just didn't get. How can MTV possibly think they'll recapture that zeitgeist in a TV movie?
