Ready to play guess the guest star?

Lucky for you, we're just going to give you the answers! We've got the big names that might just be showing up on HBO's True Blood and Fox's Glee. We already know all about Ricky Martin being the hottest Spanish teacher ever...

But what about Gloria Estefan and former SVU stud Christopher Meloni?

Yesterday, TVLine.com reported that True Blood was heavily courting Meloni for a "major role" in the upcoming fifth season. Since TB always keeps things on the DL, details are scarce on the role. But according to the site, he'll be playing a very powerful (and hopefully often shirtless) vampire. Who else think he'll be perfect in a role like that? After all, he's certainly not missing his old SVU gig.

Meanwhile, on Glee, EW.com is reporting that Latin singing sensation Gloria Estefan is in talks to play Santana's mom! We found out last night that Santana's (Naya Rivera) grandmother was not onboard with her sexual orientation, but we didn't get a chance to hear from Santana's parents. Supposedly, they are more supportive about her life choices than her grandmother.

According to EW, we'll be hearing music from Estefan's library in the episode, as well as other bilingual songs. She'll be appearing in the same episode as Martin, when Glee returns after their winter break in January.

What are your thoughts on these potential guest stars? Happy? Sad? Stressed? Overjoyed? A combination of all four? Either way, let us know in the comments!
