Finn's best Glee songs (VIDEOS)

We, along with the rest of the world, were stunned and saddened to hear that the 31-year-old was found dead in his hotel room in Vancouver, Canada.

Poor Lea Michele, his long time girlfriend and co-star, is apparently inconsolable. And rightly so. The pair became close friends on the set of their show, Glee, in 2009, and then their friendship blossomed into something more in 2012.

A representative for Lea released a statement saying: ‘We ask that everyone kindly respect Lea’s privacy during this devastating time.’

No one knows how Cory died, but rumours are flying around that it might have been a drug overdose since he’s had a troubled past and recently left rehab.

Looks like Gleeks and celebs alike are feeling the loss of the star. Many of them took to Twitter to express their sadness.

‘This hurts. I love you. Rest in peace. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family,’ said Selena Gomez.

Ellen DeGeneres wrote: ‘My heart breaks for the friends and family of Cory Montieth. What a loss.’

Take a look at some of Cory’s most memorable performances on Glee. Feel free to cry, laugh and sing along.
