GleeFan Exclusive: Chris Colfer Q&A on Land of Stories, Struck by Lightning, Glee and more!
Thanks to the thousands of questions you guys submitted, here is another exclusive Q&A with Chris Colfer! Chris talks a bit about his upcoming bookThe Land of Stories: The Wishing Spell, his new film Struck By Lightning, and a whole lot more. Enjoy!
———Q: “Who are you more likely to be pals with in real life–Carson or Kurt?” – Tasha V. (17, Philippines)
A: I’m not sure I would be friends with either. We’re all such different species I’m not sure what we would talk about. Fashion? Journalism? History? You can only talk about ambition for so long at lunch. I can see it now:
CHRIS: Did you know French support for the American Revolution partly caused the French Revolution?
CARSON: Did you know I really don’t give a s***?
KURT: I wish Blaine was here.
CHRIS: Check, please!Q: “How did your sister react to you being slimed at the TCA show?” – Thea L. (Bloomingdale, IL)
A: My little sister is almost more protective of me than I am of her. She’s my part-time body guard. So I think she was a little freaked out at first because she wanted to make sure I wasn’t hurt. When I did “Shirley Todd” in high school, during the part I was pushed into an oven as “Mr. Lovett”, she almost ran up on the stage and tackled Shirley. My mom had to hold her back.Q: “Did you ever write fanfiction when you were younger?” – Lauren C. (17, Cerritos, CA)
A: Can’t say I did. I was always greatly influenced and inspired by things but I never wanted to “add” to pre-existing works; I liked creating my own characters and worlds. Same reasoning behind why I’ve never wanted to write for Glee. Although the Land of Stories is kind of like the ultimate fan fiction for me since most of the characters are borrowed from Hans Christian Andersen and the Brothers Grimm.

It’s cliché, but honestly, the book/series that had the most profound effect on me was Harry Potter. I feel like I grew up with those characters (I was the same age as Harry, Ron, and Hermione as I read them). They were really who and what I needed during those times, who and what we ALL needed. Some of my happiest memories are going to those mid-night release parties. In many ways I think JK Rowling gave our generation a childhood.

I’ve always wanted to get my sai swords somewhere, but the fear of needles and sagging in the future outweighs the want. I have a packet of fake ones that I slap on whenever I’m in a feisty mood.

Q: “In the episode On My Way, one of the judges is a vampire, and Kurt acts afraid of him. Was that something outlined in the script, or was it something you came up with yourself? If you came up with it on your own, what’s the story behind it?” – Erin M. (20, West Jordan,…

I sincerely hope that these two get together and do cabarets at some point. I don’t care if it’s next year or when they’re 60 year olds in turbans and caftans. In fact, that last one might make it even better.

I get recognized pretty much everywhere I go now. I love meeting people and hearing stories, but I would be lying if I said it wasn’t annoying that people’s first instinct when they see me is to grab their camera. I get why Bigfoot stays home.
