who was Cory Montieth?

[Celethiel]

would someone explain to me about him, besides that he died from a drug overdose and was on glee?

[Y_B]

That's about it.

 

Plus he's good looking so that's why half the people cared as much as they did.

 

Here's something to think about - If Lamorne Morri (younger than Cory) from New Girl died...would that be all over the news and on Facebook? Would ppl make RIP threads about him?

 

It still sucks, but just saying

well to me, the look on his face in what little pictures i've seen. Did not look happy... even his smiles weren't that genuine.

He was a Canadian actor, who also appeared in Final Destination 3 besides Glee.  He apparently died of a combination of Heroin and alcohol.

Not to be... bitchy? I guess is the word I'm looking for, but he's the only one on that show that's not funny.. Well actually the others have moments, most of them are annoying at times. Apart from Schmidt, who I think does the comedy delivery better. And, New Girl, isn't as widely appreciated by viewing audiences either, so I agree, there would be less RIP threads for him.  But that doesn't diminish his life in comparison to Cory's either. The loss of life is the same loss to me.

Well people just don't become addicted to drugs for no reason. They are chemically lacking something, physically lacking something, socially, mentally.. something had changed in the span of his life that led him down that road. And false pretenses are a part of all that as well.

Not that this matters much, but he also appeared alongside Selena Gomez and Leighton Meister in Monte Carlo.  He had the most adorable Texan accent...

[methodwriter85]

    I used to follow him on Twitter, where his handle was Frankenteen. His tagline was "tall, awkward, canadian, actor, drummer, person."

 

    He just came off as a very sweet, very talented person. It's a shame.

He was apparently extremely intelligent too.  It's a shame he had so many drug issues.  A mind is a terrible thing to waste and all that, right?

Cory Monteith was a Canadian actor who made his debut on glee, he recently died from a drug and alcohol overdose. Some demons are harder to overcome but the consequences a great talented young actor loses his life, he did get the help he needed but it is still a shame.
