I'm lucky on so many counts - I'm lucky to be alive.

Fox taught me how to sing and dance

But when the 'Glee' audition came around, my manager literally had to talk me into it. I was petrified to sing in front of anyone.

I was dirt-poor. I could barely hold down a job. Eventually, though, I started getting small parts on shows like 'Smallville,' 'Supernatural'... and lots of really bad sci-fi movies. I was running around the woods in wolf contacts, covered in fake blood made out of pancake syrup, roaring.

I'm Canadian, but no, I don't speak French.

My life has changed in almost every way but I couldn’t be more grateful. I couldn’t be happier - I feel like the luckiest guy in the world.

Every single day I wake up in the morning, and I wonder if this is some kind of amazing dream that's gonna end all of a sudden. And, you know, I'm gonna wake up and be somewhere else.
