star Lea Michele announced via Twitter today that she’ll appear in an episode of the seventh and final season of FX’s gritty biker drama — which happens to be her “favorite show,” she added.

I'll be appearing on an episode of my favorite show @SonsofAnarchy! Thank you so much @Harparbar & @sutterink #SOAFX http://t.co/YlyvosTYuw—

TVLine has learned that Michele will appear in the Oct. 14 episode as Gertie, a truck stop waitress and single mom who connects with Gemma during a difficult time.

Showrunner Kurt Sutter had promised to announce a “fun guest star” during Sunday’s

gig comes as she prepares to film an abbreviated sixth and final season of Fox’s high-school musical

returns to FX on Sept. 9 at 10/9c with a super-sized hour-and-45-minute premiere.

Great news!! Would love to see her in a badass role that doesn’t require her to sing

Crow Eater or a more legit role? Would be nice to see a different side of her acting

Probably getting revenge for those people who sold Cory the drugs!

There’s very little this incredible show does wrong, so I’m not the least bit worried about the casting.

Lea actually does the serious stuff pretty well – Glee’s the first comedy she’s ever done. I’m looking forward to this. She’s in real danger of being typecast to one kind of character if she doesn’t jump into some really different roles ASAP.
