‘Glee’ season 6 notes: Chris Colfer, Naya Rivera, and Jane Lynch updates

Even though “Glee” may not be on the air right now, this story serves as pretty good evidence that all of the stars have quite a bit going on in their lives … beginning with a guy in Chris Colfer who did something this past week that we find truly awesome.

Colfer is a well-noted fan of Hillary Clinton, and when she had a book signing for Hard Choices at The Grove recently, he decided to stand in line like every other fan before getting her autograph on the book. It’s a nice little reminder that there is still some humility here, even for a young guy who has won awards and starred on one of the biggest TV shows on the planet over the past five years (even if the ratings are no longer what they once were).

As for some other big news…

Jane Lynch on legacy  – Remember Jane’s career before the show? It was notable, but mostly in the form of guest spots and the occasional scene-stealing role. This made her into a TV icon, and she is very well aware of it.

Speaking to the Associated Press while promoting her cabaret production, Jane explained how she feels about this show and what it has done for her career:

“It was a total game-changer. They would not have asked me to do `Annie’ if I weren’t on `Glee.’ At the time I was kind of known for the Christopher Guest movies. I was enjoying my career. I was happy doing guest spots here and there. But this really upped it.”

Naya Rivera’s new short – Naya made her directorial debut recently on “Love, America,” a short film promoting Immigration Heritage Month that features Americans from all walks of life metaphorically sharing their stories in New York City. Take a look at it below.
