TVLine interviews Chord Overstreet

TVLINE | What was your reaction when you learned Glee had decided not to pick up your series regular option for Season 3?
Of course I was bummed initially. I had the best time working on the show and I had one of the best life experiences. It was a blast. But I decided to look at it as an opportunity to dive into my music.

TVLINE | The news broke when you were on the road for the final leg of the Glee concert tour. Was the cast supportive?
We spent the past 12, 13 months together, so we were like a family. I made some friends for life. They were all there for me. They were all really sweet.

TVLINE | The producers invited you back on a recurring basis with the possibility of becoming a regular later in the season, but you declined. Why?
I’ve been writing music my entire life and I had an opportunity to work on a record. It’s something I have a huge passion for. I did a lot of thinking and I felt like it was a good time to work on my album and focus on that avenue of my career. They offered me the chance to come back for a few episodes, but there was nothing guaranteed so I decided to dive into the music thing. And that’s been my main priority the past two months.

Presenting the sweetest parenting story ever in the history of awwww! :D I’m so glad I found it! I *HAD* to share it!

getstooobsessed:

“Mommy, they are just like me.” 

My oldest son is six years old and in love for the first time.  He is in love with Blaine from Glee. 

For those who don’t know Blaine is a boy…a gay boy, the boyfriend of one of the main characters, Kurt.

This isn’t a ‘he thinks Blaine is really cool’ kind of love.  It is a mooning at a picture of Blaine’s face for a half hour followed by a wistful “He’s so pretty” kind of love.

He loves the episode where two boys kiss.  My son will call people in from other parts of the house to make sure they don’t miss his ‘favorite part.’  He’s been known to rewind it and watch it over again…and force other to, as well, if he doesn’t think people have been paying enough attention.

This infatuation doesn’t bother me or his father.  We live in a very hip-liberal neighborhood, many of our friends are gay, and idea of having a gay son isn’t something that bothers either of us.  Our son is going to be who he is, and it is our job to love him.  End of story.

He is also six.  Six year olds get obsessed with all kinds of things.  This might not mean anything at all.  We always joke that he’s either gay, or we have the best blackmail material in the history of mankind when he’s a 16 year old straight boy. (Take that naked bath time pictures!)

Then the other day we were traveling across the state listening to the Warblers album (of course), and in the middle of Candles, my son pipes up from the back seat.

“Mommy, Kurt and Blaine are boyfriends.”

“Yes, they are,” I affirm.

“They don’t like kissing girls.  They just kiss boys.”

“That’s true.”

“Mommy, they are just like me.”

“That’s great, baby.  You know I love you no matter what?”

“I know…” I could hear him rolling his eyes at me.

When we got home I recapped this conversation to his Dad, and we stood simply looking into each other’s eyes for a moment.  Then we smiled.

“So if at 16 he wants to make a big announcement at the dinner table, we can say ‘You told us when you were six.  Pass the carrots’ and he’ll be disappointed we stole his big dramatic moment,” my husband says with a laugh and hugs me.

Only time will tell if my son is gay, but if he is I am glad he’s mine.  I am glad he has been born into our family.  A family full of people who will love and accept him.  People who will never want him to change.  With parents who will look forward to dancing at his wedding.

And I have to admit, Blaine would be a really cute son-in-law.

Isn’t that adorable? I love stories of acceptance. They are the best kind of love stories. <3

Later!
Rebecca

“I knew I definitely wanted to get out of that town. It was very small, lots of small minded people, and that’s probably what first drew me to just wanting to act… Actually, growing up my little sister was always very, very ill, in and out of the hospital, and I think that’s probably why I started acting - the escape of it. You know, you’re able to pretend to be someone else and you get to pretend to be in another world for so long. And, you know, growing up, that was great.”
- Happy 21th birthday Chris Colfer!

I love Kurt, and of course, Chris Colfer, too! I hope he has a marvelous time today.
Chris,You really can do things no one else can. It&#8217;s not just a line said to your character on camera; it&#8217;s the truth for you, as well. You can achieve whatever dreams you set your mind to. You&#8217;re such an inspiration for so many people - millions of kids, teens and adults alike. I wish you the best of birthdays from the bottom of my heart. &lt;3With greatest respect,Rebecca

“I Just Want to Be Loved.” —Quinn Fabray

Hi, Gleeks!

Okay, so if Quinn “just wants to be loved,” why did she cheat on Sam, who obviously loved her? :P Of course, I know I’m biased as a Sam Evans fangirl, but that just bugs me… She HAD love, but she threw it away for the chance to be Prom Queen, which never ended up happening anyway. Now it’s Mercedes’ turn to be Sam’s girl, and you know she’ll do a better job of it than Quinn did in the end.

<3 Samcedes <3
