Chris Colfer Talks Bullies


Glee’s Chris Colfer has finally found his place!
Chris admits that his high school days were very rough.
He got tormented because of his love for theater, the debate team. They would yell insults and homophobic slurs at him.
Chris originally went to the Glee auditions with the role of wheelchair bound Artie in mind, but creator Ryan Murphy had wrote the role of Kurt with Chris in mind.
Chris explained that he is glad about landing the role of Kurt, he said, “I can relate to Kurt’s vulnerability and the fact that he’s still finding himself. We’re all searching for something to belong to. I found it with Glee.”
As Glee becomes bigger and Chris finds his place, he tells about all of those bullies in high school have tried to contact him, acting like great friends.
He says that after writing a scathing response back to one of them he never sent it. He thinks, “what’s the point? I’m in a great place now.”
Good for you Chris! We love you!
