Hey M Girls!

The holidays are the perfect time to give back. And no one knows it better than Glee's Darren Criss and Disney's Bella Thorne!

Darren spread his holiday cheer by singing at the eBay Toy Box in NYC on Sunday -- this was a great way for the crowd to donate to Toys for Tots!

He sang a lot of Christmas melodies, such as 'Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree,' 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,' and his fave song, Alvin & the Chipmunks' 'Christmas Don't Be Late.'

After the event, Darren tweeted: "Thanks everyone braving the rain & the cold to do some good."

Watch a clip of his performance below:

In addition, Ms. Thorne has already said she's volunteering at the LA Mission on Christmas Eve. We heart Bella!

So, let's dish:

Hey M Girls!

Sad news for all Gleeks out there -- Chord Overstreet (who played Sam) will not be a series regular on the next season of Glee.

But Chord being dropped from Glee was not the only recent announcement. We are so psyched to report that Darren Criss (who plays Blaine) and Harry Shum (who plays Mike) were promoted to regulars -- so awesome!

While we are so sad we won't be seeing Chord every week, his contract still allows him to make guest appearances on Glee. We hope Chord has not said goodbye to McKinley High yet! Chord tweeted that he's also working on a solo album--cool!

So let's dish:
-What do you think of the new changes? Are you sad Chord will not be a series regular? Are you excited about Darren and Harry?
