No, really this time!
When that rumor began to spread earlier this month via her loose-lipped manager, Charice herself shot it down via Twitter. "I just want to let you all know, that it's not true that I'm going to be on Glee," she said.
Well, it's true now! Sources confirm to me exclusively that the international pop star is signed, sealed, and delivered to recur next season as a foreign exchange student whose killer vocals get Rachel (Lea Michele) contemplating murder.
Not literally, mind you.
So what do you think?

Glee Girls, Lock Up Your Men! Pop Star Charice Is Coming
Today 11:40 AM PDT by Kristin Dos Santos
Sources confirm pop star Charice is coming to Glee this fall in a recurring role.
So who will she be playing? What's the Shannon Elizabeth connection? And what's the latest on those Justin Timberlake rumors?
I'm told Charice will play a foreign exchange student (just reported by EW) with an ah-mazing singing voice--who will catch the eye of at least one Glee boy (shades of S.E. in American Pie), and the stank eye of one Ms. Rachel Berry (Lea Michele).
Meanwhile, we're told there is "nothing to report" regarding rumors that that other singing sensation you may have heard of, Justin Timberlake, will be coming on the show--at least not yet. Multiple cast members--including Lea, Jenna Ushkowitz and even his doppelganger Matthew Morrison--have told me they'd love to have his sexy back on for a M.M./J.T. dance-off, so keep those fingers crossed.
Now, start your betting. Which guy will catch Charice's eye? And what are we gonna do about it?

Meet the New Star of Glee!
Teenage pop star Charice has enrolled at William McKinley High School! On the next season of Glee, all star Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) will be pitted against a new foreign exchange student for the role of #1 diva! EW reports that international singing sensation Charice has signed on to play New Directions newest member and Rachel's main competition in season 2.
After proving that she has what it takes to perform solos, Charice will become Rachel's nemesis. Not that we don't love hearing Rachel sing, but it would be nice to watch her face some serious competition. Time to get excited Gleetards!
Not just any pop star could out sing Lea Michele, so the producers must be very confident in Charice's abilities. Oprah Winfrey even called the 18-year-old the most talented girl in the world.

This time it's for real: Charice is joining Glee
SOPHIA M. DEDACE, GMANews.TV
After the fiasco last month, Filipino international pop singer Charice Pempengco is officially set to join the Season 2 of the vastly popular American television series, Glee.
On Tuesday, Charice posted on her Twitter account: "It's official. I'm on Glee (next season) but story behind it. When [the] rumor came out, it wasn't true." The 18-year-old singer was referring to a premature report last month that said she would be joining Glee. Her local manager, Grace Mendoza, had confirmed to the Philippine Daily Inquirer that Charice would join Glee but the singer and her mother Raquel denied the report.
On Tuesday, Charice said she tried to audition for the show and got accepted following the incident. "And i made it!!! Let's Party!!!!" Charice did not indicate whether she would be part of the regular cast or would have a guest stint in the next season. Singers Josh Groban and Olivia Newton-John were featured as celebrity guests in the previous season of the hit TV series.
Charice was a runner-up at a singing contest in 2005. Her performances later became YouTube sensations, prompting American television show hosts Ellen DeGeneres and Oprah Winfrey to notice her. Her rise to popularity soon followed. In May this year, her self-titled album ranked eighth in the Billboard Top 200. Charice has been tapped to sing the Philippine national anthem during the inauguration of President-elect Benigno Aquino III on June 30. — LBG/RSJ, GMANews.TV
