Cory Monteith Allegedly Had To Comfort An Actress After Lea Michele Called Her 'Ugly'!

If you’re anything like us, you may have wondered something kind of awful and depressing in light of all these accusations against Lea Michele…

How did Cory Monteith deal with her being so terrible to people all the time?!

We mean, not only did they date for a long time, but several of the stories we’ve heard are from the set of Glee — including Samantha Ware‘s shocking allegations which set all this off.

In case you *somehow* didn’t hear, Ware publicly called out the 33-year-old momma-to-be, saying she made her first TV gig “a living hell” and told everyone she would “s**t in my wig.” In the days that followed, nearly everyone Lea worked with agreed this was the Rachel Berry they knew; even Heather Morris agreed her co-star was very “unpleasant to work with.”

Surely Cory must have seen some of this, right?

Well, now we have a story which does involve him. And if it’s anything to go by, it could be the late star spent a lot of time going behind his GF and apologizing.

After Lea posted her apology on Instagram Wednesday, an actress named Monica Moskatow responded with a comment (which Lea has apparently since deleted) telling the story of her one encounter with the suddenly controversial star, way back in the early days of Glee:

“September 2009 I was hired to work at the premiere party for Glee at a high school. They hired lookalikes of the shows characters to perform at the party. I was the Rachel Berry lookalike.”

If you’ve ever seen a movie about a horrid, bratty movie star you probably know where this is going. She continued:

“I didn’t know my character was the lead let alone who played her. When the actors arrived at the event and found out there were lookalikes of them Lea came searching for me. When she saw me she said, ‘Oh my god! Could they have picked someone uglier!'”

Yep. Just awful.

However, someone at least tried to make it better. Moskatow recalls Cory “saw the look on my face and said, ‘Don’t listen to her, she’s just jealous, you’re beautiful.'” Awww. She finished:

“I never forgot that.”

Obviously we have no way of corroborating this story, but it certainly seems in line with the picture the majority of those who have come forward recently have painted.

If Cory was really going around apologizing for all this behavior, that really just makes it so much worse, doesn’t it??
