Corey Allan Michael Monteith

The life of actor Cory Monteith was devoted to show business, in TV series and feature films he played a number of bright roles. The talented young man also sang in a Canadian music group and was engaged in charity work in children's organizations.

Cory Allan Michael Monteith was born in Alberta, becoming a long-awaited gift to his parents in 1982. He spent his early childhood in the northern cities of Calgary and Victoria, a family that respected education and work.

His father, a light infantry soldier, loved Corey and his brother Sean, but when the boy reached the age of 7, he left the house for unknown reasons. The mother, an interior designer, took the upbringing of children into her own hands, but because of the workload saw her sons only before going to bed.

The lack of male control affected the behavior of Monteith, who skipped lessons at school, upsetting and irritating teachers. He changed 16 educational institutions, not getting used to the collective, so, as a teenager, did not make real friends.

Spending most of his time on the streets, the young man tried alcohol and drugs, buying them first with money received from his mother, and then with funds from petty thefts. The consequences didn't worry Corey, because when he took another dose, he felt inner freedom, satisfaction and swagger.

Before the end of the 8th grade of the secondary school, the future actor underwent a special rehabilitation course at the insistence of his relatives. Then, looking at reality in a new way, he received a certificate of maturity and decided that it was time to leave the house and try adult life to taste.

In the biography of the young Monteith there was a moment when he worked as a taxi driver, school bus driver and roofer in a number of construction brigades. The passion for music led the guy to a Canadian little-known band, which had no contracts with studios and never received awards.

In his youth, Cory Monteith had a bright attractive appearance, at a height of 192 cm, which is about 80 kg. Before meeting the only girl who became a companion in his personal life, he circled the heads of naive schoolgirls and broke the hearts of unmarried ladies.

The Canadian had an affair with Taylor Swift, an American country-pop singer, but due to constant touring the couple eventually divorced fate. Monteith returned to work in the cinema, and the singer continued to record albums, release music videos and give concerts for fans of her skill.

In early 2008, on the set of the famous series, the native of Calgary met the actress, who had time to become famous in the United States. About the relationship of Leah Michelle and Corey immediately learned photojournalists, who wrote that it is going to the wedding and the birth of the baby.

It turned out to be a half-truth, but unfortunately, the love story of the star couple was waiting for a tragic finale. After Corey's death, the actress said he was a wonderful but introverted man who could only open his soul to those who knew him well.

Struggling with the loss of her chosen one, Leah dedicated a series of touching lyrical songs, such as Hey You and If You Say So, to his memory. And friends noted that drug addiction and addiction to alcoholic beverages prevented the talented guy to perform the best roles in the movie.

Corey joined the cinema in mid-2004, starting with supporting roles in the TV movies "Young Musketeers" and "The Killing Strike". He liked to be with professionals on the same set and for a fairly simple job to receive a decent fee.

At first, the actor did not care that he does not gain fans, and in the series "Supernatural" and "The Mysteries of Smallville" his presence almost no one noticed. But after fantastic projects "Whistler" and "Anomalies" Canadian and American directors began to invite Corey more often.

In 2006, the thriller "Bloody Mary" and the horror film "Destination 3" with Monteith were released. Images of secondary characters gave the Canadian creative freedom, he was able to demonstrate the skills of psychologically mature acting.

However, the guy did not reach the stars of world cinema, and he was advised to go to the courses of oratory and stage skills. Corey entered the studio of director and screenwriter Anthony Maindle and got into the class where Sasha Alexander and Samantha Mumba studied.

The help of a professional teacher helped the Canadian in the development of his career, and in the teenage drama "Kyle XY" he was given a prominent role. In a 43-episode story about an extraordinary boy, Monteith revealed that he is a potential lead actor and protagonist.

Director Elena Lanskaya appreciated the metamorphosis and invited Corey to the center of the plot of the sci-fi thriller "The Beast". The image of Aaron Skates, a semi-human being with superhuman abilities, opened a new promising door for the Calgary native.

Hearing about the set of actors for a youth music series, Monteith made a small video for casting for one of the main roles. The authors became interested in a young man drumming pencils on plastic containers, and invited him to an audition, which involved dozens of people.

The Glee Project required singing and dance skills, and Corey did not attend choreography lessons and did not have strong vocals. However, he charmed the producers with a naive but not silly appearance, and together with Jane Lynch and Mark Salling made his way to the final.

After lengthy discussions, Corey joined the project and played the role of Finn Hudson from season one to the fifth. On The Ellen DeGeneres Show, he talked about how he was passionate about filming from the very beginning.

The guy liked to attend the Sputnik and Golden Globe awards ceremonies, where "Glee" repeatedly won awards for best actor. He also rejoiced that he had learned to control his own voice and could now take notes in the range of three octaves.

Monteith was invited to join the touring band during filming in the series, but he rarely participated in live concerts, preferring feature films. During his work on the film "The Incarnation of Fear" he appeared in a reality show, making sure that the acting portfolio was updated in a timely manner.

In the second decade of the 21st century, Cory joined the filmography of the Monte Carlo comedy with Selena Gomez, Leighton Meester and Pierre Boulange. Romantic picture of Thomas Bezach received good reviews from critics and, judging by the comments on the Internet, most viewers liked it.

Monteith was treated for drug addiction for 15 years, but heroin still caused his death in 2013. Employees of a luxury hotel in Vancouver on July 13 found the body, and then in the hospital friends and relatives identified the movie star.

At first, the press wrote that Corey himself took his own life, but these statements were immediately refuted by the family. After the autopsy that his heart could not cope with the load caused by external influence, Canadian and American reporters were told with sorrow by friends.

He so Young , He Disnt deserve To die , Omg But Maybe It Was for good i mean everything happens For a Reason ily Cory...

It turned out that on the eve of the tragedy the actor underwent a course of rehabilitation and promised his beloved and loved ones to radically change their lives. But, having broken down, he took alcohol and a dose of the banned chemical drug, which disabled the medically cleaned body.

Monteita was cremated in Vancouver, so there was no official funeral, at the farewell ceremony at the crematorium gathered a dozen close people. And then at the film studio in Los Angeles, actors and producers of "Glee" honored the memory of the deceased colleague and gave a couple of speeches.
