Cory and Lea: meer than friends?
They’re infatuated with each other as mismatched high school jock Finn Hudson and drama nerd Rachel Berry on Fox’s hit musical comedy, ‘Glee’, and when the cameras stop rolling, Cory Monteith and Lea Michele are equally in tune.
“Cory is amazing and I love working with him” Lea, 23, told OK! at the Oct. 31 World Series game at Philadelphia’s Citizens Bank Park, where she and the ‘Glee’ cast members sung the national anthem. “He’s great and he makes me laugh. He’s fantastic”.
For his part, Cory couldn’t help but sing the praises of the Broadway-trained brunette beauty. ”We’ve become very close friends,” Cory, 27, told OK! of Lea, who appeared in the smash hit “Spring Awakening”. “Its good to have someone that talented to learn from,” he says, joking that Lea is “not bad” to look at either.
Lea certainly makes learning fun: On Oct. 11, she took Cory on a datum to his first Broadway show, ‘Rock of ages’. “They sang along to ‘Don’t stop believin’’ at the end” says an onlooker.
And on Nov.1, the pair were spotted with their ‘Glee’ co-stars taking in the off-Broadway toon ‘Love, Loss and What I wore’.
While neither actor is ready to admit to a full-fledged romance (Lea’s rep does not commentaar on her client’s personal life), Cory says “There is hope”. And co-star Mark Salling, who plays Finn’s love rival, Puck, says he already thinks the two stars are perfect for each other.
“They make a fantastic-looking couple” he tells OK!
