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!!!
