VELSHI: The list is out for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The nominees for induction in 2011. There's a name here for pretty much any fan. From Neil diamond to Alice cooper; Bon Jovi to LL Cool J; Donna Summer and Dr. John. These are just some of the 15 nominees that they will pick from. Now, to be considered you have to have put out a record at least 25 years ago. The 2010 inductees included Abba, Genesis, The Stooges and Jimmy Clift. Since the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation was formed in 1983, they've honored a total of 605 people, some of them more than once. Eric Clapton, for instance, has been inducted three times as a solo act, with the Yard Birds, and with Cream. Well, the internet and CNN NEWSROOM are abuzz this afternoon after the Britney Spears edition of "Glee" last night. One of the characters on the FOX show is named Brittney S. Pears (ph). Last night they paid homage to the pop icon Miss. Britney Spears. Her dialogue is being called sheer genius. In a major production, the character on the show expertly combined several different music videos from the real Miss. Spears into one laughing gas-induced fantasy. The dentist was played by John Stamos. Britney Spears appeared several times on last night's show, as well, once in a video spoof as Madonna talking about good smelling breath, and again as a cheerleader. And that's what we've got for that.
