[Fessing up was] the first honorable, truthful thing that had come out of my mouth in years. I was done fighting myself. I finally said, ‘I’m gonna start looking at my life and figure out why I’m doing this.’”

—Cory Monteith of “Glee” tells Parade Magazine that he was an out-of-control teenager who did lots of drugs and skipped school often. How interesting that now, at age 29, he plays one of the most goody-two-shoes characters on television. Does this make anyone else want Finn to fall off the deep end next season?

Bloody Mary still

It’s the hot jock piece from “Glee,” Cory Monteith. And we like what we see! Here he is, representin’ his softer side as a painter in the 2006 B-horror movie “Bloody Mary: Legend Of The Mirror Witch.” Now, one question remains: Is that a self-portrait? Hawt. [WOW Report]
