Kristin Chenoweth, Mark Salling and more of Cory’s fellow gleeks tweeted ‘heartbroken’ heartbroken messages shortly after his death.
The entire world was stunned when news broke June 13 that Cory Monteith was found dead in a Vancouver hotel room — but few were as devastated, or more vocal, than the people who worked with Cory, 31, on his hit Fox series.
‘Glee’ Cast Reacts To Cory’s Death
Mark Salling, who plays the on-screen BFF to Cory’s Finn, tweeted the most knee-jerk response to Cory’s passing — a simple, and heartbreaking, “no” — but he deleted his tweet shortly after.
One of the most intense responses, due largely to her use of capital letters, came from Dot Marie Jones, who plays Coach Shannon Beiste:
I HAVE NO WORDS! MY HEART IS BROKEN CORY WAS NOT ONLY A HELL OF A FRIEND HE WAS ONE AMAZING MEN THAT I WILL HOLD CLOSE TO MY HEART FOREVER.
I AM BLESSED TO HAVE WORKED WITH HIM AND LOVE HIM SO MUCH! MY HEART IS WITH HID FAMILY AND OUR WHOLE GLEE FAMILY! I LOVE YOU ALL!
Kristin Chenoweth, who made three appearances on Glee as April Rhodes, simply tweeted, “RIP CoryMontieth. You will be loved. Always.”
Lauren Potter, who plays Sue’s partner-in-crime Becky, paid tribute with three heartbroken tweets:
I am totally heartbroken right now. I love Cory so much this hurts my heart.
I hope my #glee family is ok right now. I love them all.
Cory was always so nice to me. I have so many good memories.
Fox & 20th Century Fox Also Respond
Along with Cory’s cast members, the network (Fox) and studio (20th Century Fox) behind Glee also chimed in with thoughts of sadness and reflection:
