Born Cory Allan Michael Monteith on 11 May, 1982 in Canada, Cory moved to Vancouver Island at a very young age.

He landed small roles in several films and TV shows, including Final Destination 3, Smallville, Supernatural, Flash Gordon, Stargate Atlantis and Stargate SG-1. When Glee was being cast, videos of Cory were submitted and he attended a mass audition before landing the role which brought him international fame in 2009. In late March of this year, Cory's representative told America's People magazine that the actor had "voluntarily admitted himself to a treatment facility for substance addiction". This was not his first time in rehab as he'd had treatment when he was 19. Admirably open about his addiction struggles, Cory revealed he had a serious problem and had taken "anything and everything". In 2011 he told America's Parade magazine that he was "lucky to be alive". Cory Monteith had been dating fellow Glee star Lea Michele (who plays his on screen off again/on again girlfriend, Rachel Berry) since 2012.
