Matthew Morrison Talks 'Glee' Cast Romance Rumors
Matthew Morrison, talked to Parade.com about all things, well.... Glee!
Before Morrison became everyone's favorite teacher, Will Schuester, he was actually a performer on Broadway! Morrison appeared on 'Live with Regis and Kelly' this morning where he told them "more people saw the pilot of Glee than {his} entire 10-year career on Broadway."
Morrison is working on putting out his first solo album which, he says, is like a combination of Michael Buble and Justin Timberlake's musical styles. Or Bub-Lake as he called it!
Though Morrison was on Broadway for over 10 years, he's dealing with his new found fame in stride.
Transitioning from Broadway fame to TV stardom.
"It's cool. I enjoy talking to people who are just really into the show. I get a lot of families who come up to me, actually Katie Couric came up to me at the White House Correspondents' dinner a couple weeks ago and she said 'Tuesday nights are the only night that my daughter and I get to spend together, and we watch Glee. And it's such a great moment that we have together.' Families are getting together and talking about the show because sometimes it brings up some interesting, racy issues and parents have to answer some questions. But I love it. I'm so happy and proud of what we're doing, so it's been a great ride."
Dealing with tabloids rumors about cast romances.
"There's the one about Lea [Michele] and myself, and we were literally on set and I got a call from my publicist, and she got a call a minute later and we looked at each other like, 'What the f--?' It's so laughable. And now there's this one about my ex-fiancee going to the tabloids, which so isn't true. I have a great relationship with her. I feel like I can handle this stuff because I don't really care. I've never gotten into tabloids and I don't really care about it now, but I just feel bad for other people in my life who are getting dragged into it. It just kinda sucks."
Next week's flashback episode with Neil Patrick Harris.
"Aw, man. You're not even ready for next week. It's a great episode with Neil Patrick Harris and he plays an old nemesis of mine. He was two years older than me and he got the lead in all the shows and got all the girls and he kind of failed as a performer, so now he's on the school board and is back to destroy the glee club. I feel like every week someone is out to bring me down. What's up with that?"
Tune into Glee Tuesday nights at 9/8 Central on Fox!!!
