Darren Criss, who plays Blaine on Fox's
Glee, says he's bummed over Blaine and Kurt (played by Chris
Colfer) breaking up.
Referring to his own character on the
show, Criss told UK's Gay
Times: “Well, we don't know if he did actually cheat.”
“I have my own ideas about who Blaine
is, and obviously the writers have a better idea, and so you find the
middle ground and try to do your job to make it as truthful as
possible. I think about three years ago, when we met Blaine, if you
had told me he was going to cheat ,I would have been like, ‘What?
No way, man!’ I thought that would never happen. But then again,
people are layered, they have a lot of different things going on and
maybe that’s who he was when he met Kurt because he was trying to
give a good impression – well, I think he was being genuine – but
people’s interests in other people get complicated. It’s not as
black and white as him being this knight in shining armour. And also
people grow apart and grow different, so it was my job to be like, ‘I
guess if he does this, then I have to rationalise where and at what
point Blaine would be at to do such a thing’, and I guess they try
to justify that. I’m not going to say that it was justified, but he
tries to rationalise it by the fact he’s been abandoned and it’s
tough, and he couldn’t hold on anymore. But yeah, it’s a bummer,
It’s always a bummer when you see nice couples going down the
drain. Damn.”
