Cory Monteith, one of my favorite actors of "Glee", who played my most favorite character, Finn Hudson, was found dead in a hotel room in Vancouver, Canada, this Saturday. This news shocked me so much since I'm a huge fan of Cory Monteith
I saw the trending topics on Twitter, where the most trending topic was #RipCoryMonteith, and it was true that Cory had died in the age of 31, this of course shocked me and the Glee fans. I'm really sad and shocked to hear the news.
Cory Monteith had been on the Glee since its' debut in 2009, playing his character, Finn Hudson, the star quarterback of McKinley High who is forced to join the glee club. After graduation, he comes back to help direct a musical at the school. He also won Teen Choice Award for Choice TV: Actor Comedy in 2011, as well as Do Something award for TV Star: Male in 2012.
Tomorrow, the top 40 will be delayed until Tuesday or Wednesday, instead, I will present the best Glee videos of Cory Monteith as the tribute for him. God bless him, send your prayers to him...
UPDATE: The top 40 will be updated alongside the best songs sung by Cory Monteith tribute special. God bless him, send your prayers to him...
