Matthew Morrison Teams With JC Chasez For Solo Album



It's no Acafellas reunion, but "Glee" star Matthew Morrison says he hooked up with former boy bander JC Chasez for one of the tracks on his solo album, which he plans to release next year.

"I wrote about half the album so far, but I've definitely co-wrote. I've definitely teamed up with some great producers, some great songwriters," he teased MTV News at the "Glee" season two premiere party on Tuesday night in Los Angeles. "And yeah, I just did this great song last week with JC Chasez that was very, very cool. It turned out really well. He's such a good songwriter."

While the details of the collaboration with the former 'NSYNC member are scant, Morrison (who plays glee club coach Will Schuester on the show) did share the name of the track. "It's called 'Dancing in the Rain,' not 'Singing in the Rain,' but 'Dancing in the Rain.' "

Morrison shared that he's got some other collaborations on the album, but wouldn't name names. "It's very eclectic. I'm doing some great duets. I can't release who they're with yet, [but it's] some people that you've probably heard of before, that you've definitely heard of before."

Fans of "Glee," which returns to Fox on September 21, shouldn't be surprised to learn what Morrison's album will sound like. "It's gonna be a little adult contemporary," he said. "And there's gonna be some pop songs that you can shake your moneymaker to in the club."

And while Morrison's co-stars may be presenting an award at this year's MTV Video Music Awards, he's got even bigger plans following his album's release. "I'm hoping to perform at the VMAs next year!
