Ive been pushing for them, she said. Also headed to Glee in the new year, now that the guest star embargo seems to be over, is Gloria Estefan in the role of Santanas mother. Im very excited about that, Naya said of the Grammy-winners upcoming cameo. I have met her. She came to set earlier on in the year and brought her kids and I got to meet her then and I thought that was cool enough and for her to be playing my mom, its like, Yes!
