Cheryl Cole is being lined up for an appearance in Glee, according to actress Jane Lynch.

Lynch, who plays coach Sue Sylvester on the show, is quoted by the Daily Star as saying that the cast are keen to have the Brit make a cameo on the popular programme.

And she said that the Girls Aloud star is also keen herself. Lynch is quoted as saying:

"There's been talk on set of Cheryl appearing for a year or so, but it's set to happen now. Matthew [Morrison] has spoken very highly of her and the younger guys on set are keen to have her on, for obvious reasons. Matthew's chatted to her and she seems keen."

She added: "Cheryl's the perfect Glee fit - she can sing, she can dance and she looks good. It would be cool if she played herself."
