TwistedElegance™ Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Didn't see this one coming. Actor Cory Monteith, who stars as Finn Hudson on the Fox series Glee, has checked into rehab, PEOPLE has learned exclusively. The actor "has voluntarily admitted himself to a treatment facility for substance addiction," his rep tells PEOPLE. "He graciously asks for your respect and privacy as he takes the necessary steps towards recovery." Monteith, 30, has been open about his past struggles with substance abuse. He admitted in a 2011 interview that he had previously entered rehab when he was 19. At the time, the actor said he hoped being honest about his struggle with substance abuse would help others. "I don't want kids to think it's okay to drop out of school and get high, and they'll be famous actors, too," he said in 2011. "But for those people who might give up: Get real about what you want and go after it." http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20687046,00.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
