CHRIS COLFER BIO:
Chris Colfer grew up in Clovis, California, a small town that he couldn't wait to get out of. He was the president (and only member) of the Writer's Club, and was also involved in Debate and Drama. He is gay, like his character, Kurt, although he was never out in high school because "people in my town get killed for that." Although he auditioned for Artie, the role of Kurt was written for him instead. Glee is his first major role, and he is the youngest member of the cast. Chris currently lives in Los Angeles, CA.

CHRIS COLFER QUOTES

Dumpster scene today. Injured my toe, knee, wrist, hand, and finger. At least I can say I do my own stunts.

Productive days lead to boring nights.
I don't care where I end up living in the world...as long as I have a washer and dryer.
(In an interview along with Amber Riley, asked about their characters, Kurt and Mercedes.) Chris: "We're basically the same character," Amber: "Yeah, I'm the female black diva..." Chris: "And Kurt wishes he was the female black diva!"
“It’s like being b****-slapped by an iceberg" - on being slushied
Funny story: I have a retainer colored like the Italian flag because my orthodontist made a mistake. Just another day in the life of Chris.
I keep getting calls from [LA school district] saying that my daughter is missing classes... I am going to find this girl and get her ass to school, because I am tired of all these damn phone calls!
My life is an awkward visit from the kid's table while awaiting a History Channel special.
So Santa's sleigh can carry toys for millions of children & travel to their homes in one night, but it having a trunk is hard to believe?
You know you've been to a great concert when it makes you deaf, you lose your voice, and you have nightmares.
"I just downloaded the new Alvin and the Chipmunks album! They're the only guys that make music in my key!"
I'm obsessed with the Where's Waldo? application on my iTouch. Hopefully it'll help me find my reading glasses and keys in everyday life.
I think sea shells should have "Prettier When Wet" disclaimers written on them.
Q: What is your advice for kids that are getting bullied? A: Never forget. And never forgive. You remember their names, you remember their addresses, you should remember everything. Don't listen to any of that - you know - forgive and forget - you know - crap. No, no. You get even. And one day they'll regret it, 'cause you'll like post their social security number on Twitter or something. You remember the stuff they did to you and you get back. You get them back... and that's all I have to say about that. :D
A red carpet and press line at a funeral has to be the tackiest thing in the world and I want one at mine someday.
My Twitter account has been verified!!! This must be what Pinocchio felt like when he became a real boy!
Every time I get injured I measure it's severity by asking myself "Would this stop me from going to Disneyland?"
I keep hearing about all these "Chris Colfer" sightings at different places. If I ever run into me I'm going to have a few words for myself.
I tried reenacting Pink's Grammy performance with a blanket and duct tape. Epic fail.
I'm going to start eating healthier today! Well, maybe tomorrow...actually, Sunday seems better...Monday for sure!
I thought The Hurt Locker was a documentary about my high school PE experiences.

If Chris Colfer attended your high school...

Yesterday, 5:07 AM EST by demfae

Thread started: Jan 29 2010, 2:00 PM EST Watch

Chris often mentioned being bullied or being at the bottom of the food chain whenever he was interviewed about his high school life and I really didn't want to believe it because he would have been in the exact opposite position in my school, so I decided to start this thread.

If he were in my high school (while ignoring the fact that I went to a high school that's exclusively for girls):
He would be a batch lower than me. (If I were a senior, he would be a junior)
He'd represent his class in the inter-class debates for seniors.
If he weren't a member of the debate club, he might be a Shadow Deltan (which is a term for a non-member of the debate club but that person's skill in debate is officially recognized by the club).
Assuming he'd be in the writer's club, he might not be the president because of the sheer number of talented people in that club.
There's a possibility that he would have been my friend/close acquaintance.
He'd be an honor student.
He'd probably be an overachiever (in the best sense).
He would be POPULAR.

I've run out of ideas, so let me hear other people here. :D

Do you find this valuable?

Just post what you have in common with Chris Colfer.
Me:
I like guys (Well I'm a girl so no duh.)
I have brown hair
I like singing
I love glee
i dont fit in any groups........... accept for the unique, animal loving, glee loving, beatles loving wierdo....
(not saying that what chris is...)
my hair flips to the right..well ya my bangs do
I have a scar on my neck...but that was made by a tiger (Ya, don't ask. i was doing an animal outreach presentation and some kid screamed and the tiger freaked and jumped on me. Clearly the handler was not paying attention. Thank god it was not fully grown).
One of my fav colors is blue.
I love acting (usually re-acting glee in the shower), doing speeches and debating (what I usually do with my mom)
I'm a jeans and T shirt person...and I wear it with style!
I love llamas, despite their grumpy attitude and that i got chased by one while i was walking the ferret.
I have a good sense of humor...thats what people say...
One thing I don't have in common with Chris is that I do tan...alot. Probably cause I'm native indian. I have never ever burned before...or freckled.

1 out of 3 found this valuable. Do you?
