We'll get to singer Greyson Chance's return to Raising Hope in just a minute.

But first, the 14-year-old YouTube sensation is talking about snagging a gig on—what else?—Glee!

Listen up, Ryan Murphy...

"Glee is amazing; I love that show and I love all the music," Chance tells us. "I would love to do it. It'd be amazing."

"I really like it too because they really [do] a lot of old music, which I'm a huge old music lover," he said. "Me and my sister, we both are huge vinyl record collectors, so I remember when Glee did the whole Journey thing we were always watching. I just love old music and Glee just brings back a lot of old music."

Chance, who was catapulted into fame by his powerful rendition of Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi," has been dipping his toes into acting. He'll return to Raising Hope on Tuesday as a young Jimmy (played by Lucas Neff) and is set to shoot more episodes in the spring.

So would Chance want to be a Raising Hope regular if Glee doesn't come a-calling? "Of course," he said. "It's something that I definitely would be looking into and something that I would definitely do if I was asked."
