Before Carl Weather was playing a man married to CCH Pounder on Fox’s Brothers, he was married to a woman who was getting a “nude” picture painted of her by JJ on Good Times. How much fun was it to see the 26 year old (with his hair and mustache again) making his acting debut in that 1975 episode.
The absolutely awwwwdorable and charming Cory Monteith aka Finn Hudson aka Frankenteen talked to me at the Fox Eco Party about the show that is making him a household name! When you talk to him he is so truly humble and totally enjoying working on the show that is as refreshing as the show itself.
Cory plays Finn the quarterback who is tricked into joining Glee and on tonight’s episode he will get tricked into something else, but you will have to watch Glee on Fox at 9p to find out exactly what that is! Now he can’t exactly tell me more about that, but I will say it has something to do with those hysterical scenes where he tries not to…you know…well…release. And OMG because those scenes were so hysterical and well done, I just had to find out what his inspiration was to capture those moments so perfectly and he told me it was Office Space.
Now as we know Glee has lots of musical numbers, so I had to find out which one was his favorite so far and he told me that it is one of the songs featured on next week’s episode. That song is Queen’s Somebody to Love and you have to listen to the interview above to find out why because reading the explanation will not give it justice. You can listen to the song below, and I think it actually blows Journey’s Don’t Stop Believing out of the water and the Glee version was bloody brilliant. I can’t wait to see the performance that goes with the music next Wednesdays at 9p on Fox!
So with all the singing and dancing he does on the show, I wondered if he danced before the show and believe it or not he hasn’t. So I had to ask what it is like to learn the choreography and he told me it is, “It’s crappy. It scares me. I don’t know what I’m doing. I seriously think every day they are going to be like ‘Whoa, we got the wrong guy. We’re gonna fire that dude because why did we hire him.” Why did they hire you, Cory because you are f*cking awesome as Finn. You sincerely are a triple threat! You can sing, dance and act and had you not told me, neither I nor the millions of viewers that are falling in love with you more and more each week would ever had known that you didn’t sing nor dance before Glee!!! Seriously would you have known had he not told me?
Cory, who believe it or not is 27 years old, is having so much fun on the show that he wouldn’t being 37 (10 years form now) and still be in high school for the show and I don’t think he is alone with that desire. So make sure to check him out tonight and every Wednesday at 9p for the most refreshing and enjoyable show in a really long time.
BTW on side note, the camera hates him. As good as he looks on TV he so much better looking in person, so if Glee comes to your hometown with the tour make sure to go see him and the cast just to see how good looking he is in person…and to support the show!!!
Believe it or not Ellen Pompeo was able to have a baby girl over a week ago and we are just learning about today. According to Us Weekly, Stella Luna Pompeo Ivery was born on September 15th in Los Angeles. I wonder why at this point they didn’t wait until tomorrow when Grey’s Anatomy has it season premiere on ABC to make the announcement?
So since season 4 of Dancing with the Stars, Jimmy Kimmel bets on who he thinks he is going to win the season before they even hit the ballroom and this year he has picked Donny Osmond. Now you would think it would be a good that the only late night talk show host on the network that the reality show airs on is supporting you, right? Well as you can see from the below clips it is not a good thing…
His first pick was Ian Zeiring and this how Jimmy handled his loss, which could be why we haven’t seen him do anything since he was on DWTS.
The next two seasons he picked right, by betting Helio Castroneves and Kristi Yamaguchi. But then he winning streak ended and he picked Lance Bass and Giles Marini. Now I didn’t realize until yesterday’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! we haven’t seen Giles Marini since the finale in May. I naturally thought it was because I hadn’t seen him before he was on DWTS, why would I see him afterwards. Well as you can see from the below video, now we know why haven’t seen him…he fell down some stairs…wink wink.
So as you can see from the above videos, Donny Osmond better win Dancing with the Stars for his own safety. But unlike Ian and Giles he has some advantages. First off he is not dancing with Cheryl Burke and second Jimmy taught him how to be evil a few years ago and I love Evil Donny Osmond!!!
Tonight on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on ABC at 12:05 he will have on the first two eliminated Dancing with the Stars couples from season 9 and hopefully for Donny Osmond’s sake he isn’t one of them…
