Another 'Glee' Cast Member Has a Secret Hotel Background

Where: 220 Bloor St W, Toronto, ON, Canada, M5S 1T8

We already knew that "Glee's" Quinn Fabray aka Dianna Agron grew up in Hyatt Hotels in Northern California but now we learn, conveniently on the day "Glee" returns to TV, that Coach Ken Tanaka played by Patrick Gallagher was once a doorman at The Intercontinental Yorkville Hotel in Toronto.

He recently told the Globe and Mail that he fantasizes about returning to the hotel as a paying guest. Presumably, he had a nicer uniform than the one he sports on "Glee" which is usually too-tight short shorts, knee-high socks and a fanny pack.

And given the attention that the show gets from fans, we bet the Intercontinental would totally invite him back for a free stay in one of their suites, along with fellow cast member and Canuck, Cory Monteith. Just think of all the publicity!

Carey Mulligan Was a Hotel Scavenger While Quinn Fabray Hung Out at Hyatts

In catching up with our celebrity gossip over the weekend, we noticed two young PYT actresses have very similar Eloise-type childhoods.

Carey Mulligan, star of "An Education" and "Wall Street 2"; a recent BAFTA winner and Oscar nominee (for "Education); and Shia LaBeof dater, told Jimmy Kimmel Live that she grew up in different hotels in England and Germany while her dad was a general manager. But her and her brother were a bit of hotel "scavengers", creeping into hotel guest rooms and stealing whatever guests had left behind. Most of the stuff was "crap" but she did manage to swipe a Swiss Army Knife once.

Where is Finn Hudson Staying in New York?

Can anyone guess the hotel where Finn Hudson aka Corey Monteith from Glee was Twitpic-ing from recently during the GLEE press trip through NYC. He writes:

sitting on the roof of my hotel in NYC... Love this city...

It looks like Midtown to us but he just tweeted that he was at Columbus Circle. Could he be at Six Columbus or are they staying at the Empire Hotel? Either way, your guesses have to be a hotel with a rooftop. Corey also mentioned that he went running through Central Park so it has to be a hotel close to there as well. And no, we have no idea which hotel it is. Put Your Guesses in Comments Below.
