So many things have gone wrong for various members of the Glee cast that it might be safe to assume that the Glee cast "curse" people started joking about years ago could really be a thing. Glee premiered in 2009 and came to an end in 2015. It was constantly getting compared to a High School Musical but it stands alone for being its own special television show.

The cover songs, the way the high school students had each other's backs, the clear ambition and passion in their eyes as they would perform…these things are what made the show so incredible. It is so unfortunate that a long list of negative things has happened to actors and actresses from Glee. Amber Riley must just be the only cast member not to have any real-life drama.

10 Heather Morris: Her Nude Photos Got Leaked

Heather Morris got very open and honest about her 2012 nude photo leak scandal years later in 2020. She posted on Instagram, "OK, so over 10 years ago, some nude photos were leaked of me and many other actresses in the industry. To say I was MORTIFIED is an understatement; my body was and still is part of my job and I felt like I couldn't even walk around my workplace thinking that everyone had seen every single piece of me (a couple of snide comments from co-stars came my way which didn't help)." She is now so far past the scandal and still as beloved as she was before it happened. The fact that she went through the ordeal is a major bummer but obviously, she didn't let it ruin her life.

9 Melissa Benoist: Her Domestic Violence Claims Against Blake Jenner

These days most people recognize Melissa Benoist from her time starting on CW's Supergirl but prior to that, she also landed a role on Glee where she played one of the singing teenagers. During her time on the show, she met Blake Jenner, another actor in the cast. They started dating and got married! They were married from 2015 to 2017 and things seemed to be perfectly fine between them… Until she revealed that she had experienced domestic partner abuse. She is now remarried to Chris Wood, her costar from Supergirl.

8 Chris Colfer: Dealing With Being Typecast In Hollywood

Chris Colfer's issues after starring in Glee haven’t really amounted to any serious scandals or public incidences, but the fact that he has been typecast in Hollywood is still a major bummer. He landed two amazing roles, Hot in Cleveland and Julie’s Greenroom, but in both of those roles, he is expected to sing and perform. Now that the general public mostly recognizes him for his performing talents and abilities, fans are wondering if he is going to be typecast into similar roles for the rest of his career or if he will be able to break into more serious parts down the line.

7 Kevin McHale: Revealed His Sexual Exploits On Twitter Causing An Upset With 'X-Factor'

Kevin McHale was gearing up to star on Celebrity X-Factor in 2019 but right before this show's primetime launch, he got mixed up in some very revealing social media dialogue that left his fans scratching their heads. It was inappropriate, to say the least. He took part in a conversation about some of the intimate things he has done, some of the private things he enjoys, and some very personal things that should probably be kept off of the Internet... especially since he has such a large fan base of young people.

6 Darren Criss: Was Called Out For Making Problematic Comments About His Own Heritage

Darren Criss played the role of Blaine in Glee and we all know that he did a lot of singing. The character he played was lovable-- but some of the comments he's made in real life are not. An interview of Darren Criss's with Vulture caused a negative reaction from fans including one who wrote an open letter directly to Darren. The fan was really disappointed that Darren Criss didn’t necessarily claim his heritage with love or pride. He talked about his heritage in a way that was negative, at best.

5 Dianna Agron Feuded With Producer Ryan Murphy

According to Cafe Mom, producer Ryan Murphy (and Lea Michele) both "intensely dislike Dianna and have both worked to marginalize her as much as possible." Filming episodes of glee most likely wasn’t very easy for Dianna Agron. The experience was definitely cringe-worthy and difficult for her as she tried her best to get through each episode. She wasn’t even invited to take part in the episode acknowledging Finn Hudson's death even though Dianna Agron was close to Cory Monteith in real life.

4 Lea Michele: Exposed For Bullying On Set & Got 'Canceled' In 2020

2020 was a year filled with tragedy, crazy drama, and scandals. The scandal surrounding Lea Michele made headlines because she was exposed for bullying some of her costars on the set of the show. Social media banded together to “cancel" her.

3 Mark Salling: Caught With Inappropriate Content Of Minors & Ended His Own Life

Mark Salling played the role of Noah Puckerman on Glee. The character he played was a rebellious bad boy who still had some redeeming qualities. In real life, Mark Salling didn’t necessarily share those redeeming qualities. He was caught with inappropriate content featuring underage children, arrested, and found guilty. The plan was for him to serve seven years in prison and register as a sex offender. He ended his own life in 2018 at the age of 35.

2 Naya Rivera: Tragically Passed Away In 2020

According to her Instagram, hanging out on boats and swimming in the water was something that she did on a regular basis. That is why so many people are confused about the circumstances of her passing. She was so beautiful and full of life!

1 Cory Monteith: Tragically Passed Away In 2013

The death of Cory Monteith is just as heartbreaking as the death of Naya Rivera. He passed away from an overdose in July 2013 while he was still in a relationship with Lea Michele. He had briefly taken a break from filming Glee to attempt a path at sobriety in rehab but after relapsing, he ended up passing away. He was found unconscious in Canada in a hotel room at the age of 31 years old. He was doing his best to try and get back on the right track which is what makes his story so much sadder.
