The first single from Lady Gaga's new album 'Born This Way' will appear on TV show Glee, it's been revealed.

The singer has given clearance for the same-titled song to feature on an episode in March or April.

“I love that that song is anthem,” Glee co-creator Ryan Murphy told Entertainment Weekly.

Lady Gaga is one of a host of music stars who have contributed songs to Glee, which tells the story of a fictional high school glee club.

In a previous episode in season two, Coldplay star Chris Martin's wife Gwyneth Paltrow performed a cover of Cee Lo Green's hit, 'F*ck You'.

Lady Gaga's single 'Born This Way' is due out next month, while the album will follow in May.
