Good morning, NBC.

Nikki Blonsky will be guesting on Smash this season, a rep for the show confirmed to EW. It’s not known at this time how many episodes she’ll appear in or what her role will be.

News broke earlier today when Wesley Taylor, who’ll also be on Smash this season, tweeted a photo of the Hairspray leading lady on set.

Ivy will have some serious competition to be Bombshell’s star this season: In addition to Blonsky, Sean Hayes, Jennifer Hudson and Jesse L. Martin will also appear on the second season of the musical drama. No word on whether they will perform a Bollywood number.

Smash returns to NBC midseason.
