CORY MONTEITH OPENS UP ABOUT DRUG AND ALCOHOL PAST

Cory Monteith in Toronto - June 2011

Because Parade Magazine is really difficult to come by in Canada, a Friend directed me to read this Piece about Glee's Cory Monteith.  The British Columbian, after encountering several of his Co-stars in their recent Toronto visit, confirmed that he probably is the nicest member of that Cast.

Monteith tells Parade's Shawna Malcom all about his troubled past which many of us don't know about. Apparently the Actor/Musician had gone through 12 different schools as a Child, had serious Drug and Alcohol Addictions, stole money from his Family and went through Rehab. Wow.

The Interview also touches upon his reuniting with his Father in 2009 and the emotional experience of seeing one another again at the Airport.

BETTY WHITE ON FRENCH FRIES AND GAY MARRIAGE IN "PARADE"

Betty White on Parade Magazine

Robert Moritz does a fun write-up about our favourite Senior Citizen Betty White on America's most widely-read magazine, Parade this weekend. In the Interview, much is revealed about her based on her own stories and Celebrity recountings of her. She comments on her fondness for older men versus the misconception that she is a Cougar, the death of her husband, her Doctorate Degree in Veterinary Sciences, her fondness for French Fries (she eats them daily!) and Gay Marriage.

She sends a message to those who are against Gay Marriage loud and clear: "Mind your own business, take care of your affairs, and don’t worry about other people so much."  Attagirl!
