So, as you know (we may have mentioned this a few times), we were at Hard Rock Calling last night – and spent the evening in a room with the amazing Glee cast (and Prince Harry, Princess Beatrice and Eugenie and Chace Crawford – nothing too exciting). Among the Glee cast, we spotted the lovely Chris Colfer (Kurt), Matthew Morrison (Mr Schu’), Dianna Agron (Quinn) and Darren Criss (Blaine) having a few cocktails and food from the free bar menu (featuring an amazingly gigantic plate of nachos, yum).
So while we were hanging out next to them, we decided to grab Chris for a quick chat – and of course, he so very politely chatted away, telling us he was so glad we made the opening night of their live show on Wednesday in Manchester and that he can’t believe how exciting London is. Obviously we had to ask him about Glee – and how much he was looking forward to filming for the third season. He told us, “I can’t wait, but we’re here for two weeks and we’re enjoying it so much. We’re having so much fun.”
When we asked him if he at any point gets a bit fed up of listening to Don’t Stop Believin’ (the show’s most famous cover), he told us with a grin, “Oh yes, I really do – I get fed up listening to it. But I love singing it, it’s not the same as listening to it. I love singing it for the show – and we sing it a lot.”
Phew! That’s lucky, because they open with the track on the Glee Live tour which is currently doing the rounds across the UK.
And now dear heatworlders, we’re heading back out to London’s Hyde Park for more Hard Rock Calling action. Stay tuned tonight on here and on http://twitter.com/heatworld and we’ll bring you more gossip from the festival. Whoop!
