Glee Star Grateful for Thanksgiving Parade Ban

Find out what Mark Salling says about it. Plus, more deets on the Madonna episode

Glee's Mark Salling may have wanted to perform in this year's Thanksgiving Day parade in NYC, but he's also sorta happy that NBC decided to ban the musical television show from the annual festivities.

"I'm gonna watch it," says Salling, who plays football stud Puck. "I got no hard feelings. But I'll catch it from home in Dallas, Texas, with family, which was allowed to happen by NBC not inviting us. So I am not complaining. Thank you, NBC!"

Lea Michele, who stars on the show as Rachel Berry, also insists she'll tune in...

"It wouldn't be Thanksgiving without it," Michele said.

And it wouldn't be a Glee story without us asking about the Madonna episode.

Michele says she's a little bummed that she's not going to be singing "Ray of Light" as she had hoped, but she's not too worried about it.

"I'm doing like five songs," she said. "It's a huge episode, so get ready."

Salling said he wouldn't mind taking on "Frozen."

"Something like a cool goth thing would be interesting and different," he said, quickly adding, "I'll sing whatever they make me sing, but they'll probably stick me in the back on this one."
