Glee creator, Ryan Murphy, says he has permission from Lady Gaga to use 'Born This Way' on Glee.

Murphy plans to use Gaga's upcoming single in an episode about closeted bully Karofsky in either March or April this year.

Murphy told Entertainment Weekly: ""I love that [the] song is an anthem. This show is by nature optimistic and I think a character like Karofsky could turn to booze or pills or alcohol and kill themselves or do something dark.

"But I also love Max [Adler] and I love that character and I sort of want that character to have a happy ending. So I don't really know what that's going to be, but I do know we're going to do a whole episode that's about that song."
