‘Glee’ season 5: Dianna Agron, Chris Colfer, more attend Amber Riley’s dancing debut

Even though “Glee” season 5 may currently be in production, some stars past and present found the time to be in the ballroom of “Dancing with the Stars” on Monday night to cheer on someone who is clearly a favorite to win the whole thing: Amber Riley. Some of the people in attendance for the show last night included Dianna Agron (Quinn), Kevin McHale (Artie), Jenna Ushkowitz (Tina), Chris Colfer (Kurt), and season 2’s Ashley Fink (Lauren). Hopefully, Dianna’s presence here makes it clear that she is clearly open to going back on the show at some point; after all, she gets along with these people extremely well.

There is a reason why we picked Amber pre-season to win this whole show, and much of that is simply that she brings so much to the table when it comes to her audience. Not only does she have the support of all of her “Glee” fans, but some young actors from other shows. Nina Dobrev of “The Vampire Diaries” for example, has also campaigned for her. Nobody else on the show has the reach of this many young fans; the only one that comes close is Brant Daugherty.

Last night just turned out to be a big one overall for stars in attendance to ballroom show, as “American Idol” judge Jennifer Lopez showed up to support one of her best friends in Leah Remini. This was easily the most star-studded occasion since we were subjected to a Kardashian army when Rob was on the show, or the Palin family when Bristol made her two appearances.
