Gleeks, get ready to piddle in your pants a little bit: EW has the exclusive premiere of Academy Award-winner Gwyneth Paltrow singing Cee-Lo’s “Forget You” from next Tuesday’s episode of Glee. We’ve already had a little taste of the episode with the coming attractions and yesterday’s song tease, but now EW has your first look at Paltrow’s duet with the kids from New Directions. To give you all a little context, the actress is playing Holly Holliday, a substitute teacher who fills in for a sick Mr. Schuester (Matthew Morrison) in the episode, which is directed by series co-creator Ryan Murphy. But enough talk — I know you really just wanna watch Paltrow get her Glee on. Watch the video below, and be sure to check out Glee‘s “first listen Fridays” site, where you can check out audio from Tuesday’s episode!

Gwyneth Paltrow Takes On Cee-Lo Hit For 'Glee' - Access Hollywood
Cee-Lo Green’s “F**k You” became an international hit online over the summer, and now the catchy tune is getting covered – by Gwyneth Paltrow on “Glee.”
A rep for the show confirmed to Access Hollywood on Wednesday that the Oscar-winner covers the song by the Atlanta crooner during her guest appearance as a substitute teacher on the FOX show.
Instead of singing “F**k You,” however, Gwyneth will sing “Forget You,” the rep noted.
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Cory Monteith said Gwyneth also takes part in a major dance scene.
“We shot one of the best dance numbers ever!” Cory told Access Hollywood in late October. “It was amazing.”
Cory, who plays Finn Hudson on the show, said just being around the superstar was a thrill.
“I’m in like, the background or whatever, my name is not completely mud,” he laughed. “I’m just in the background. I’ll take it! I’m like dancing around with Gwyneth Paltrow!”
In addition to her appearance on “Glee,” Gwyneth is also set to make her live singing debut on the 44th annual Country Music Awards later this month. She also sings in her upcoming film “Country Strong,” starring Tim McGraw, Leighton Meester and “Tron Legacy’s” Garret Hedlund.” The film will be released on December 22.
A rep for “Glee” was not immediately available for comment when contacted by Access Hollywood.
