Oh man, you guys.

We've been anxiously awaiting this week ever since Ryan Murphy devastated our heart - and LOINS - via Twitter by posting Darren Criss' half-naked, seksi Santa photo from the 'Men of McKinley High' calendar!

And although we've since received all sorts of sneak peeks and more shirtless treats since that life-altering December day, none of it holds a candle to the excitement we feel now knowing that on this week's episode of Glee, "Naked," will feature one INCREDIBLY unexpected - yet completely BAD-ASS - mash-up of Nelly's Hot In Herre with The J. Geils Band's Centerfold!

Ch-check out Jacob Artist, Chord Overstreet, Blake Jenner, and Jenna Ushkowitz breaking it down (above)!

But for as sexy as that sounds, it seems the rest of the tunes this week instead focus on amping up the ROMANCE!

For example, you can give a listen to our beloved Lea Michele being back in fine form for her cover of Torn by Ednaswap (or later, Natalie Imbruglia); our bad-boy Jake Puckerman teaming up with Melissa Benoist for the lovely Christina Perri's A Thousand Years; Jake AGAIN getting to show off his pipes during Ne-Yo's Let Me Love You (Until You Learn To Love Yourself); our Princess Lea re-teaming with Naya Rivera and Dianna Agron for Love Song by Sara Bareilles; and the entirety of New Directions taking on A Great Big World's This Is The New Year…AFTER THE JUMP!!!

This is one of those rare cases where a specific song selection is so PERFECT and INSPIRED that we can't believe that this show has been on for FOUR YEARS without already utilizing its GLORY!

But hey! The wait has only made the pay-off THAT much sweeter, folks!

As if the preview of the boys of New Directions stripping down to their skivvies to raise money for Regionals for next week's Glee didn't have us trapped enough in a whirlwind of lust, they will be MOST DEFINITELY putting us over the edge in the upcoming episode, "Sadie Hawkins!"

Why, might you ask?!

Because our beloved Kevin McHale, Darren Criss, Chord Overstreet, and Samuel Larson have teamed up to DOMINATE their own version of our FAVORITE TLC song of all time (Sorry, Waterfalls!)…No Scrubs!

Seriously! You simply MUST listen (above) while we continue to bask in the AWESOMENESS!

But WAIT! There's so much more coming up for our friends at McKinley High!

Check out Melissa Benoist and Alex Newell teaming up for Bruno Mars' Locked Out Of Heaven; Rachel 2.0, along with Heather Morris, doing their own take on Tell Him by The Exciters; Jenna Ushkowitz taking on the Jesus Christ Superstar classic I Don't Know How To Love Him; the debut of Chris Colfer's new love interest Oliver Kieran Jones doing Sir Mix-A-Lot's Baby Got Back; while Blake Jenner covers The Flamingos' I Only Have Eyes For You…AFTER THE JUMP!!!

Aww, these two!

Naya Rivera and Jenna Ushkowitz joined their Glee co-star Lea Michele Tuesday night at the Fox All-Star Party in Pasadena.

Naya looked sleek and effortlessly chic in a nude Alice by Temperley jumpsuit and metallic Jimmy Choo heels.

Her dark sexy locks and glowing skin were absolute perfection!

Jenna took a more playful approach with her outfit, opting for a pastel striped Jonathan Simkhai dress and nude Jerome Rousseau platform heels.

She often opts for stripes, but if it's not broken why fix it, right?

Both ladies looked impeccable, and we can’t decide which we like best.

Can U???

YES! YES! YES!

Get ready to be thankful, Gleeks!

Or at least all of you Gleeks who, like us, are ALSO Directioners!

Because on this week's very special Thanksgiving episode of Glee, our beloved - although now somewhat nefarious - Warblers will be taking on the latest hit from One Direction, Live While We're Young!

And get this! You DON'T have to wait until Thursday night!

You can give it a listen (above)!

But that's not all that's going down at McKinley High and NYADA this week!

You can ALSO expect the return of Sarah Jessica Parker, as she, Lea Michele, and Chris Colfer belt out an INCREDIBLE mash-up of Let's Have a Kiki by the Scissor Sisters and Turkey Lurkey Time from Promises, Promises; Dianna Agron marching her way back to Lima to duet with Naya Rivera and Heather Morris on The Supremes' Come See About Me; The Warblers ALSO taking on Flo Rida's Whistle; and as we've already posted, Jenna Ushkowitz and New Directions going Gangnam Style; as well as Dianna joining Mark Salling, Harry Shum Jr., Amber Riley, and Cory Monteith to cover Homeward Bound by Simon & Garfunkel mixed with Home by Phillip Phillips…AFTER THE JUMP!!!

Oh, Gleeks, do we have a TREAT for you this week!

Even though Thanksgiving the holiday isn't for a few days, and Thanksgiving the episode of Glee isn't until the 29th of November, we've gotten our hands on one of the most highly anticipated songs our beloved FOX series is set to tackle:

GANGNAM STYLE, bitches!

That's right, we've seen a HIGHlarious on-line mash-up of our favorite New Directions members RAWKING OUT to the instant-classic, as well as the cast members ACTUALLY rehearsing the number, and now, feast your ears upon Jenna Ushkowitz and newbie Becca Tobin making our man Psy PROUD with their impeccable rendition (above)!

But HOLD UP!

Before your minds are blown COMPLETELY away, there are even MORE delicious, gleek'd out musical morsels to satiate your palette coming in the form of some Dynamic Duets this week!

Enjoy Becca Tobin and Melissa Benoist teaming up for the Bonnie Tyler classic Holding Out For A Hero; Darren Criss reuniting with the Warblers to tackle Kelly Clarkson's Dark Side; Jacob Artist and Blake Jenner doing R.E.M. serious justice with Superman; and all the members of New Directions coming together for Some Nights by fun. …AFTER THE JUMP!!!

We teased you with a montage of your favorite Gleeks getting down to Psy's Gangnam Style, but now this is the real deal!

Oh yes, the New Directions are ponying up to the biggest song of the year!

And in this new clip (above), Darren Criss, Jenna Ushkowitz and Kevin McHale teases us with some rehearsal footage as well as some of the final performance! And it looks HAWT!

Luckily, for us we have a little less than a month before it comes to our TVs because the episode is set to air toward the end of November!

Get it Glee Gangnam Style (above)!

Such an important message!

In fact, one that is now more important than EVER!

In honor of National Voter Registration Day, Fergie Ferg and countless other celebrities have collaborated on one INCREDIBLE anthem encouraging women across the country to take advantage of their right to vote in the Presidential election this November!

And while it's a message that of which EVERYONE should take notice, Balcony Films and The Voter Participation Center, who are behind the project, revealed that it's meant specifically for unmarried women, persons of color and young people - as they comprise 53% of the eligible voting population, yet represent 63% of unregistered citizens!

As producer Julie Bergman Sender recently explained:
