After the Fox musical TV show included a performance of ‘I Will Always Love You’ by Amber Riley – who plays Mercedes Jones in the series – last month, ‘Glee’ bosses are said to be planning a full-length episode dedicated to the legendary singer, who passed away last month, according to PerezHilton.com.

Lea Michele – who plays Rachel Berry – in ‘Glee’ has already hinted that she has been filming a “really special” new episode dedicated to one of the “world’s most amazing singers”.

Writing on her twitter page, she said in a series of tweets: “Starting a new episode today. A very special tribute to one of the worlds most amazing singers. Very excited about this one.

“Singing a really great version of one of my favorite songs today with @MsAmberPRiley  @NayaRivera  and @chriscolfer :)

“Filming something right now that's going to be really special.. Can't wait for you all to see it. (sic)”

Whitney was found lifeless in the bath of her suite at the Beverly Hills Hotel on February 11, the same day that she was due to perform at a pre-Grammys party.
