Eve will once again show off her acting prowess with a two-episode guest-starring role on Fox’s “Glee” this fall, playing the coach of a rival glee club that poses a threat to McKinley High.
“Glee” follows a passionate high school teacher who is eager to revive his school’s glee club, and features a soundtrack of both past and present hits. (The show’s version of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin'” debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 the week after “Glee” premiered in May.)
The upcoming season also will see appearances from Josh Groban, Kristen Chenoweth and Victor Garber.
Eve’s fourth studio album, “Flirt,” is coming out later this year. Her debut, “Ruff Ryders’ First Lady,” was released in 1999 went double platinum. She won a Grammy in 2002 for best rap/sung collaboration for “Let Me Blow Ya Mind,” featuring Gwen Stefani.
Not new to the world of acting, Eve starred alongside Vin Diesel in “xXx,” “Barbershop” with Ice Cube and “The Cookout,” featuring Queen Latifah. Starting in 2003, Eve played a role as a fashion designer on her own TV show, “Eve,” for three seasons.
