The truth behind Glee cast dating rumors

For those who secretly (and not-so-secretly) delight in the newest FOX series, Glee, they may be disappointed that the onscreen relationships have not been transferred to reality.

Dispelling rumors that Cory Monteith, who plays Finn in the musical television show, and Lea Michele (Rachel) are dating in real life, he spoke out with “we’re great friends.” According to people.com, Monteith states that “we’ve become really closer over the show, but we’re just friends. We’re not dating.”

Monteith’s character is an idiotic high school quarterback and Michele’s character Rachel is a neurotic over-achiever who favors puffed sleeves and granny lace as fashion substitutes. They are both involved in a love quadrangle that include cheerleader Quinn Fabray (played by Dianna Agron) and Finn’s best friend Puck (Mark Salling). To complicate matters, Quinn is pregnant with Puck’s baby, but has convinced Finn that he is the father.

Thankfully none of this drama has made it outside of the production. “That seems really difficult,” says Monteith. “That seems like it would be tricky.”
