Chris Colfer on Klaine: "It's a trip"

Chris Colfer told E! Online that portraying a relationship on-screen has been a new experience and has allowed him to expand his range and delve into Kurt's more complex side.



"It's a trip being in a relationship on TV 'cos I never ever thought that I would be part of an 'it' couple... It's been a trip, I'm enjoying it," Colfer explained. "It's been a lot of fun. It's been a whole new batch of emotions that I haven't been able to deal with yet."

Blaine and Kurt try to go to prom!

Look who’s about to get some matching tuxes ready! EW has learned that new couple Blaine and Kurt will attempt to attend their high school prom, which may not be a simple proposition. ”That story is going to be ripped from the headlines,” creator Ryan Murphy told reporters tonight in Los Angeles. “Can you imagine two boys wanting to go to the prom in Ohio?” Murphy later elaborated slightly during a panel discussion moderated by EW’s Tim Stack, teasing that the big dance will feature a performance or two from the Warblers.

Speaking of Dalton Academy, now that they’re out of the running for Nationals, Murphy said fans shouldn’t worry about less Blaine in season 3. “I think Blaine might have to try out for New Directions,” he said to roaring applause.

Murphy — who together with the Glee cast is participating in a Paley Center tribute to the Fox show — also announced that Kristin Chenoweth will reprise her role as the boozy former glee club star April Rhodes. And here’s an exciting change in Glee’s modus operandi: The plan in the near future is to center an episode around Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 album Rumours.

Showrunners and cast were relatively mum when it came to the specifics about how some of Glee‘s many couples would be shaken up in the episodes to come. But Murphy did offer up news on the romantic future of Mercedes (Amber Riley), the only member of Glee who has not had a romantic interest, saying that this summer’s Oxygen reality show, The Glee Project, will aim to find a guy for her. “One of the things that was in the back of my mind [when conceptualizing the character] was, ‘How is this guy going to be with Amber?’” he said. Riley added jokingly, “I’d like to be part of this process.”

Super Bowl Spoilers!

Blaine, Kurt to Deliver Super Destiny’s Child Cover

Are the Dalton Academy Warblers about to fall on hard financial times? Sources confirm to me exclusively that Glee’s Darren Criss-fronted group will belt out a cover of the Destiny’s Child tune “Bills Bills Bills” during the show’s post-Super Bowl episode on Feb. 6.

There’s no word why Blaine, Kurt & Co. will be grumbling about paying their “telephone and automo’ bills,” particularly considering the special hour will focus on rival school McKinley High’s football championship. Maybe Kurt wants to cheer on his former classmates but can’t afford the steep ticket price? I’m just spit-balling here. If you’ve got a better theory, hit the comments section!

Will Kurt & Blaine Kiss?(spoilers)

If Kurt can smooch a sexually confused, bullying football player, surely he'll be locking lips with Blaine, right?

Not so fast, Gleeks…

"Not yet," Chris Colfer told me the other night at the GQ Men of the Year party when I asked about kissing Darren Criss.

He laughed, "I don't know, but I think maybe one gay kiss is enough for at least these 10 episodes. Maybe another one in the back nine wouldn't hurt."

Colfer also kinda confirmed that Criss will be following up his hit rendition of "Teenage Dream" with Train's "Hey, Soul Sister."

A Glee cast cover of the tune is already listed on Amazon.com, but the site notes it's not available yet.

"He does great with this one, too," Colfer smiled. "I want to tell you...OK, it's a famous one. It's on the radio quiet a bit...Okay, I'll give you a hint—choo-choo."

Ryan Murphy talks about Kurt/Blaine

AfterElton: How many episodes is the anti-bullying story line going to be?
Ryan Murphy: I think it’s a whole year, actually. It’s not a couple episodes; it will probably be the whole season, actually, and the ramifications on everybody, which I think is important.

AE: How is Blaine going to play into that?
Murphy: I don’t know. We’re just writing him now. Darren has become such a sensation in one week, which I love. I think there’s a hunger for him and a positive relationship role model. He’ll definitely continue through the year and longer. We just signed a deal with him, so I don’t know.
AE: He’s confirmed to be a regular for the remainder of Season 2 and next season as well?
Murphy: Yes.

AE: Is Blaine going to be Kurt’s boyfriend?
Murphy: I don’t know. That I have not decided. We’re writing it. I want to see what people’s reaction to that is. Part of me thinks he should be the boyfriend, part of me thinks he should just be the mentor. I didn’t want to decide that until we got into sort of the middle of the season. We’re figuring it out now.

AE: If he doesn’t wind up becoming Kurt’s boyfriend, are we going to see Kurt have a boyfriend?
Murphy: Kurt will definitely get a boyfriend. The question is who will it be and how will it be.



AE: What was it about Darren Criss that initially appealed to you?
Murphy: He had auditioned and auditioned many, many times and I personally never saw his auditions. Then when we were casting, the casting director said, “You gave us many choices.” As soon as Darren came on and [I saw] his audition, I was like, “That’s the guy.”

AE: Had you seen Criss’ A Very Potter Musical before?
Murphy: No, I didn’t know anything about Darren. I just knew he was right.

AE: What do you think of his success of “Teenage Dream?” It's become Glee’s biggest hit yet.
Murphy: I’m proud of that. That’s our biggest-selling single ever in the history of the show and the fact that it’s one boy singing to another boy on a network television show and it’s a No. 1 song and it sold probably 200,000 copies in one week is a very profound thing that I’m personally very proud of.
I never expected that to happen. I’m catching up with the week that was and figuring out, OK, now we have this great commodity in something that people have really embraced. It just shows to me that people are hungry for that.

AE: Will there be a PSA at the end of the season for the Trevor Project? Have you considered that yet?
Murphy: I have not considered that; I do a lot of support work with the Trevor Project, but maybe I should. I think if we do it, we should just write it into the story instead of doing a PSA.

Darren Criss calls Blaine's role ‘an actor’s dream’

There’s a fresh face coming to the FOX hit Glee, in the form of the young 20-something Darren Criss.

The star stopped by our On The Red Carpet studios to dish on his role as Blaine, an openly gay member of a rival glee club.

“Its just a bonus that its actually a very cool and interesting role, an actors dream and sort of politlically what it stands for,” Criss told us. “This is a guy that is really empowered and strong through who he is and what he’s all about. So I really hope that fact is a source of positive energy for any kind of youth dealing with any kind of issue.”



“This is the biggest bonus about this character. Even if it wasnt Glee, if it wasnt a major network its so great to see such a strong gay youth character,” he said.

Criss also addressed rumors that he’ll be a love interest for the Kurt on the show, played by Chris Colfer.

“Im more interested in Blaine being a friend and a mentor to Kurt and for the first time having someone in the exact same situation as Kurt,” he said. “At this point in the show most of Kurt’s friensdhips are not as easily relatable as Blaine will be, so thats the coolest part. So we'll see what happens from there.”

Catch Darren Criss’ debut on Glee, November 9th on FOX.

Darren Criss: Blaine is an 'Out and Proud' Student

"He's kind of an out-and-proud student... I really hope he ends up being a really positive role model and source of strength for a lot of people, gay or straight - for any teen, really.



[Blaine's] a guy that [has] seen some hardship and where we meet him he's a very strong, collected guy, and he's really analyzed the things that have happened to him and has defined himself because of those things and a lot of the struggle that other characters go through, he's found a way to empower himself through that. Having a character like that show up where we are in the show and where we are in our society is pretty cool."

Darren Criss: Blaine is going to be a mentor to Kurt

Don't worry, Kurt, it gets better.

On "Glee," the new gay character Blaine, played by Darren Criss, will help Kurt (Chris Colfer) deal with being out when they meet for the first time on the Nov. 9 episode, according to EW.

"I think Blaine's most important role is ... as a mentor to Kurt," says Criss. "At this point, Kurt's [sexuality] has been such a sense of discord in his life. Blaine finds [being gay] empowering. He embraces who he is, and sees Kurt [struggling with] the same things that he had to deal with, and I think he wants to impart that knowledge."


Criss also hopes that Blaine won't just help Kurt, but others who might be struggling. There's been a rash of gay youths who've committed suicide lately, which has prompted celebrities to release video campaigns like this "It Gets Better" one by Adam Lambert.

In the episode, Kurt considers transferring to Dalton Academy where he crosses paths with Blaine, a rival glee club singer. At this point, many are assuming that it's not Sam Evans (Chord Overstreet) who's Kurt's upcoming love interest, but Blaine.

"My guess is as good as anybody's. It's a really big secret," says Criss.
