"Glee" takes on Michael Jackson in tribute episode

FOX

(CBS) On Tuesday night's episode of "Glee," the students of McKinley High took on King of Pop's hits in a special tribute to Michael Jackson.

Blaine (Darren Criss) kicked off the episode with "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" rocking the singer's signature white glittery glove.

Then Artie (Kevin McHale) lead the New Directions crew in their version of "Bad," where they simultaneously battled against the Warblers, who stole their Michael Jackson-filled set list for Regionals.

In a dream sequence, Artie ditched his wheelchair for his own version of Michael and Janet Jackson's "Scream," with Mike Chang (Harry Shum Jr.) playing Janet Jackson to Arite's Michael.

Quinn (Diane Argon) sang her own version of the Jackson 5's "Never Can Say Goodbye" after she finds out she's accepted to Yale and will soon be leaving Ohio. Later, "Smooth Criminal" made its way into the show in the form of a duet from Santana (Naya Rivera) and The Warblers' Sebastian (Grant Gustin), while Mercedes (Amber Riley) and Sam (Chord Overstreet) rekindled their romance while singing "Humand Nature."

Rachel (Lea Michele) and Finn (Cory Monteith), who are now engaged, performed "I Just Can't Stop Loving You," and the episode finished with the gang singing "Black or White."

This was not been the show's first tribute episode. "Glee" also dedicated hours to Britney Spears, Madonna and Lady Gaga.
