In the "Showmance" episode of Glee, Will allows the kids in Glee Club to sing "Gold Digger" during their performance. The song was originally sung by American rapper Kanye West, featuring guest vocals from Jamie Foxx. It was released in 2005 as the second single from West's album "Late Registration." "Gold Digger" became a chart-topping hit, reaching number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 and winning a Grammy for Best Rap Solo Performance. Glee's rendition of the song received mixed reviews, but it remains a memorable moment from the show's early seasons.
