Gwyneth Paltrow to Sing with Matthew Morrison on Upcoming Solo Album

According to Oh No They Didn't, Gwyneth Paltrow will duet with Broadway and GLEE star Matthew Morrison on his debut solo album, which is set for a May 10 release. Morrison shared: "The hardest part of doing this album was asking these people favors, like Elton [John] and her. I'm so not that guy."

Paltrow and Morrison will sing "Over the Rainbow," which Morrison sang on GLEE's season one finale.  He added, "People kind of know me for that song now, says Morrison. "I wanted to do a duet with a female. I thought that was a good song to do, and we really did a different arrangement of it. It's a lot of strings, and it's beautiful."

Matthew Morrison was a part of the Lincoln Center Theater production of South Pacific. It was at Lincoln Center where he also created the role of Fabrizio in the musical The Light in the Piazza, for which he was also nominated for a Tony Award. His other Broadway credits include A Naked Girl on the Appian Way, Hairspray, The Rocky Horror Show and Footloose. He appeared off-Broadway last summer in the musical 10 Million Miles at the Atlantic Theatre Company. His TV and film credits include Dan In Real Life, Marci X, Primary Colors, Numb3rs, Ghost Whisperer, CSI:Miami, Law & Order: Criminal Intent and Once Upon A Mattress.

Morrison currently stars on GLEE an uplifting series with biting humor that features a soundtrack of hit music from past to present. The show follows an optimistic high school teacher, Will Schuster, as he tries to refuel his own passion while reinventing the high school's glee club and challenging a group of outcasts to realize their star potential.
