Re: Chris Colfer Appreciation Thread!--part 3

[Jellyrolls]

I do find it hard to believe that people aren't clamoring for him to pose more, perhaps he is too busy to accept. I just can't imagine anyone selling clothes cannot see what Kurt wears, and makes work on a weekly basis. He may not be over 6 feet tall, but he is long and lean, and looks good in fashion. Perhaps they believe the tripe the Glee writers write about Kurt having skinny arms etc. I am going with the just too busy idea, myself.

Perhaps people are, and Chris is just turning down the offers. Chris doesn't seem to be motivated by money, so perhaps he just doesn't have the interest in endorsing a product for cash. He seems much more interested in promoting himself and his creative outlets.

^ that's really hilarious!

i hope he will never take off his shirt.

Bite your tongue you evil woman.

I'm back.

[fantastica]

hay, welcome back you trouble maker! now I am ready for a duel!

[valkeakuulas]

Actually, it will be funnier if he took the shirt off, but left the undershirt on.

Oh, that would be evil , like the equivalent to Burts flame thrower to the "girls in tumblr, Twitter and facebook". People would go crazy mad! Don't get me wrong I love the girls (and boys) on tumblr because they are the ones that are feeding our Colfer addiction.

Actually is most probably that Chris can do that, instead of take off both his shirt and undershirt.

Bite your tongue you evil woman.

I'm back.

Hey welcome back :D

Has this been posted??

A new interview from After elton:

Look everywhere these days and Chris Colfer is probably there. His new children’s book, The Land Of Stories: The Wishing Spell was just released in book stores and the film he wrote, produced and stars in, Struck By Lightning, was the closing film of Outfest in Los Angeles. And, of course, there’s Glee, which is what brought Colfer out Monday night for the Fox Summer All-Star Party at SoHo House in West Hollywood.

AfterElton grabbed some time with Colfer to chat about the myriad of projects he’s working on and, with filming of the new season of Glee just getting started, whether he thinks Kurt will make it to New York City and what’s in store for Kurt and Blaine.

AfterElton: Congratulations on your book!

Chris Colfer: Thank you so much!

AE: You were making the rounds recently on the talk show circuit. How is it different for you talking about a book instead of Glee?

CC: It’s insane! I’ve never experienced going places and people coming to see just me! I’m used to having the [Glee] cast with me. It’s been terrific and at these book signings I expect everyone to ask me about Glee and what’s happening and everyone is just wanting to know about the book and the next book. It’s been wonderful.

AE: Is the next book already written?

CC: It will come out next year. It’s not written yet but I’m working on it but the sequel will be out next year.

AE: How does working on a book like that change you as an actor? Do you look at things differently?

CC: It’s really two different worlds completely. I wish I could say that one benefits the other but I’m not sure how it does. [laughs] Maybe it’s anti-beneficial. Who knows? We’ll see.

AE: Where would you like to see things go with Glee in terms of Blaine?

CC: I don’t know! I’ve heard that they might break up or they might stay together. I’ve heard both. I don’t know. I’m on board for what makes Kurt happy and what makes the teenage girls on the Internet happy because those angry Tweets are something else. But we’ll see how he gets to New York because I think he’s very set on New York and he’s going to get there somehow.

AE: Do you think it would be good for your story [with ‘Klaine’] to break up just to have that to work through?

CC: Yeah, I think breaking up is definitely an option. If they end up together further down the line, sure, why not? I think Darren and I both want to do something fun, a little dramatic and something we can sink our teeth into as actors.

AE: You’re aware that you and Darren were at the top of our Hot 100 list, right?

CC: [grins] I’m very aware. People made us aware.

AE: When you see something like that, what do you think, especially since it’s 100% reader-voted?

CC: I think did I forget to bribe people? I think I owe people money.

AE: What else is on your bucket list?

CC: My bucket list is consisting of everything I’m doing now and I hope I can keep doing everything I’m doing now. I’ve got the next book coming out and I have a movie coming out in December. A lot of stuff right now so I hope I get to keep doing stuff.

AE: How was Outfest and the screening of Struck By Lightning the other night?

CC: It was great. It was the best audience we have seen the movie with.

AE: How does it feel now that people are seeing the movie?

CC: It’s crazy. It’s weird. It’s the same thing with people who have read the book. I feel like that you’ve seen me naked in a way.

AE: With everything going on, do you have any time these days for a personal life?

CC: Not really. No. I try here and there but nothing to write home about.

allow me to double post this tweet here because this is EPIC:



it's ironic that Kurt Hummel has nothing but failure and the real person who plays him has one success after another. Can Glee writers realize that their fictional depiction of a femm gay's life is so unrealistically depressing??? Why can't they be INSPIRED by the real life Chris? After all they like to be inspired by real people (which is supposed to be what this whole TGP thing is about).

[fantastica]

hmm, forgive me for being obnoxiously sarcastic but if all this congratulation doesn't translate to more solos for Kurt then I don't care (about glee).

[ColferInspired]

Chris is the ultimate success story. He is the one generating the buzz, not Glee.

If Fox and RIB don't capitolise on this and give Kurt a good storyline then they are morons. Chris is who is getting the focus, he is starting to become bigger than Glee.

Chris being a best seller just shows how talented his is as a writer.

And Chris you definitely do have an audience for this book series.

Hope he's ready to write another seven to eight books.

THIS.


I'm so, so proud of Chris, and so happy for him.
He's just magical.

[fantastica]

chris now has over 1.5 million twitter followers!

[ladydianab]

And twitter @chriscolfer is just going nuts. It is fun to read the tweets but they go so fast. Some guy on there has tweeted that he can't believe what happened when he met Chris. Hundreds of people are retweeting that. He has Chris fans in a frenzy!! My evening is quite boring compared to some of these tweeters, .

[fantastica]

Diana, when you see something interesting in the twitter world, can you post them? you don't have to take any images, just copy and paste the texts.

[ladydianab]

It goes by so fast! but I will try! I promise.

[Struckbycolfer]

allow me to double post this tweet here because this is EPIC:

Congrats Chris,so proud of you,so proud to be your fan


And I found this



1.5M followers,happy for you,you really deserve this

[tanita_mors]

I's so, so, so proud of BB , and so jealous . Only 22, and all this. I bow down to you Christopher.

[Delight]

Now we can add New York Times Bestseller author to the long list of accomplishments by Chris

I wonder how many copies of a book need to be sold to be considered a Bestseller? Frankly, with the number and the kind of fans that Chris manages to attract, part of me would be disappointed if this didn't happen. This remarkable boy truly deserves it

[BlueJazz]

NYT Best-seller? Get it, Chris !! I'm sure you'll no longer be referred as "the kid from Glee" after some time



And god I love Chris' interview these days, even though the excessive Klaine/Blaine-related questions annoy me.

AE: Where would you like to see things go with Glee in terms of Blaine?

CC: I don’t know! I’ve heard that they might break up or they might stay together. I’ve heard both. I don’t know.

I'm sorry, Chris but I'm afraid that it's impossible to make both Kurt and crazy fangirls (or maybe shippers?) happy at the same time with the writers like RIB. Maybe it's time to choose the former instead of the latter.

[Emile]

allow me to double post this tweet here because this is EPIC:

WOOH! It's fantastic!! Ans well-deserved, I'm happy for him. :')

They actually look really good together. Lea must be pissed at RIB for net letting Rachel kiss Romeo Kurt. Hahah.

[fantastica]

the manip is cute but the main problem is that lighting sources are different for lea and chris, and that's what lend to the "fakeness".

[tanita_mors]

while those manips look hot , they are also hilarious. and i'm a hummelberry fan.

[fantastica]

^ ever since the last finale, I am no longer into Hummelberry. I just want Kurt to be w/ a gorgious cute cat, singing him songs after songs, and dancing /w him. that's my dream glee. I don't want any plots or characterizations. glee doesn't know how to do them right, so I'd rather have none.

[brisallie]

...

Hahaha actually I wanted to see a kiss between Rachel-Juliet and Romeo-Kurt. Damn RIB! And the manips and them looks good.

Are you still a hummelberry? I'm still unsure about it
