Cory Montieth wants a UK tour?

Filed under Cory Monteith, Glee Cast Member Sighting by Tinkers on 06-07-2010

Cory’s currently shooting a movie with Selena Gomez in Monaco (as you’ve probably seen via twitpics and the like) and he was recently spotted backstage at the Wireless Festival, a star-studded annual gathering including stars like Jay-Z and P!nk.

When approached about whether or not the show would tour in London, Cory responded, “I hope so. I don’t plan these things…I don’t know (but) I would very much like it to happen.” Good news for UK Gleeks!

And when asked the reasoning behind his whereabouts: “I wanted to see LCD Soundsystem and here I am. I’ve had a couple of days off so I was just like, ‘I’m gonna go to London!’” He went on to praise P!nk for her theatrical antics.

Rob’s Report: Breakfast with Glee at Z100 – An Elvis Duran Show & iheartradio Event

Filed under Amber Riley, Cory Monteith, Glee Cast & Crew, Glee Events, Glee Interviews, GleeFan.com Exclusive, Jenna Ushkowitz, Kevin McHale, Mark Salling, Naya Rivera, Pictures by Rob on 31-05-2010

NYC On Friday, May 28, 2010, my day started by stepping off of a Greyhound bus and into New York City for the first time in my life. After only an hour or so to go check out the hotel we would be checking into later that day, it was time to head off to the P.C. Richard & Son Theater in Tribeca. As a sort of last minute surprise, I was able to bring my friend Emily Zhang with me, so that’s who you’ll see me with in the pictures. She was going to stay back and do something else, but I was able to get her an entry thanks to the awesome people at iheartradio. We took the subway from 50th to Canal St., and stood in the line that was forming outside of the building. I texted my contact at iheartradio, saying that I was there, and she came out to get me! We got to bypass most of the line and we came inside to get a sneak peek of the theater before everyone else was allowed in. It was set up to look like a classroom, but they chalkboards had hilarious caricature drawings of all the cast members. I remember that when Amber saw the one of her, she commented on how big her head was. Hehe…

Right before it started, we got to save our seats in the theater. We sat in the second row (I believe that the 1st row was reserved for employees) and we got wristbands so that we could leave and come back in easily. We dropped our stuff off in our seets, and then got some breakfast. Everything was provided by Dunkin’ Donuts, so the donuts and coffee was great. Then we went back to our seats and ate while the Elvis Duran and the Morning Show people came in. This was awesome for me because I listen to them almost every morning on a local station, Q94, but I had no idea what they actually looked like! Greg T., who Elvis Duran usually refers to as frat boy or round head, went around asking for peoples’ questions to ask the cast during the interview. Finally, the Glee cast came in.

Glee Cast at Elvis Duran

The cast members who were present were Cory Monteith (“Finn Hudson”), Kevin McHale (“Artie Abrams”), Jenna Ushkowitz (“Tina Cohen-Chang”), Naya Rivera (“Santana Lopez”), Amber Riley (“Mercedes Jones”) and Mark Salling (“Noah ‘Puck’ Puckerman”). After some introduction, they began answering questions. Some of the questions were from the audience (approximately 100 people), in which case Greg T. would go to the person who had a question and let them ask it into the mic. Other times, they would take callers with questions, which Elvis was able to do on stage using his iPad. One of the funniest times was when a caller was trying to ask the cast about their ages in relationship of the ages of their characters, but their cellphone signal was so bad that only every other syllable was audible. Obviously, the Glee cast had no idea what they were trying to say. Enjoy this captioned image of Jenna, Cory & Amber’s confused faces:

On The Red Carpet Talks to Harry Shum & Cory Monteith

Filed under Cory Monteith, Glee Interviews, Harry Shum, Videos by Rob on 09-04-2010

ABC Television’s entertainment news website OnTheRedCarpet.com has posted video interviews with Cory Monteith and Harry Shum Jr. They cought up with Cory on the set of his recent OP Commercial that he filmed with fellow Glee cast member Dianna Agron. As we know, Cory used to work as a Walmart people greeter, so it’s kind of funny that he’s now representing a brand that is exclusive to Walmart only.

They talked to Harry Shum Jr. at recent Hollywood premiere for the video game Splinter Cell: Conviction. When asked about tips for the open casting call for season 2, Harry said that people should be themselves, but having some crazy hair wouldn’t hurt. Also, incorporating dance is a plus.

Cory Monteith as a Male CheerleaderToday is our very first Flashback Friday! From now on, every Friday (at least, that’s our plan), we will be bringing you a Glee-related blast from the past. It could be an old (but still awesome) Glee video/article that you may have missed. Or maybe, as is the case with today, it will be something related to a Glee cast member’s work before Glee.

For today, we’re bringing you a commercial that Cory Monteith made for Western Canada Lottery’s lotto game EXTRA. “With more than 8 million EXTRA winners in the west every year, that’s a whole lot of cheering.” At least now we know what Finn would look like in a Cheerios uniform!

Cory Monteith (Finn Hudson) – “Glee’s” heartthrob – nabs the “Most Likely To Succeed Without Really Trying” honor and is styled as “chic rebellion” with a mix of preppy gear and a leather biker jacket.
