When Glee first premiered, and subsequently became wildly successful, there was lots of buzz about a reality show based upon the series. The idea was nixed just months later, disappointing many fans. But, we’ve got good news: The Glee Project is happening -- and it's hunting for new talent.

The new reality show gives hopefuls the opportunity to star in seven (yes, seven!) episodes of the popular series, but don’t expect American Idol-style auditions if you tune in. According to a recent statement, executive producer Dante Di Loreto wants to nurture new talent, not "make fun of people" who don’t have enough of it.

Look for The Glee Project on Oxygen in June.
