Murphy: No Bieber 'Glee' show planned

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 10 (UPI) -- "Glee" creator Ryan Murphy has denied an online report saying a single-artist episode of the U.S. comedy featuring the music of Justin Bieber is in the works.

While most episodes of the show include covers of songs by various well-known musicians and groups, a few previous installments have been dedicated to the work of single acts such as Britney Spears and Madonna.

However, Murphy said one of those special shows will not feature only Bieber tunes.

"Those (tributes) are reserved for artists with big catalogs," Murphy told EW.com. "Bieber comes up in episode 13 as a small plot point. Sam sings a JB song to win Quinn's approval."

Chord Overstreet plays Sam and Dianna Aragon plays Quinn.

Bieber, a 16-year-old Canadian native, is known for the songs "One Time" and "Baby."
