Young Hollywood

Welcome to Younghollywood. com. What's up, Young Hollywood? It's Michelle Marie here, crashing the pad of Cory Monteith from Glee. Now, it looks like he's having a barbecue and I heard he was, so let's even see if he's home.

Pad Crashin'

Who is it?

Young Hollywood

It's Michelle Marie! What's the password? Is that it? Let me in. I need to get into this place. Oh! Chilling with me, Cory Monteith. How are you, Cory?

Cory Monteith

Welcome to my house.

Young Hollywood

Thanks for having us. So,

Cory Monteith

Come on in. It's a party you're having a cool barbecue.

Young Hollywood

Barbecue actually, this is my house.

Cory Monteith

Welcome to, uh, living room number one. Living room number two. Cuz, I mean, what house is complete without two living rooms, right? Here we go into our, uh, wonderful den.

Young Hollywood

Nice, nice. We have a little some Frank Sinatra album covers on the wall.

Cory Monteith

Important part, sort of a sort of a rat pack theme of this room. Right here to the to the bar, my roommate, Justin here, shaking up some drinks.

Young Hollywood

Nice. Yeah. Party, barbecue. Now the party started. Bottles on the wall and stuff. It's kind of nice though, it's all for entertainment, but you don't even drink.

Cory Monteith

Don't even drink? Pretty cool. No, it's kind of wasted on me. Let me show you the garage. It's like a

Young Hollywood

Oh, this is a pretty sweet man cave. Some tools happening here.

Cory Monteith

That's my bike right there. The helmet. This is my sweet helmet. You not only, uh, choose a helmet for safety, but also for style. It's like, uh, bringing back the nineties here. Golf club action. Welcome to my sweet 70's kitchen.

Young Hollywood

Right, right here. You know you're having a barbecue when there's drinks and everything. Look at what we got? You got it all going on? Cool.

Cory Monteith

These are the glasses, in case you, uh, in case you need to go incognito. No one can tell who I am. You got to wear those. Okay. Definitely my look. All right, Michelle. Oh. Do you want to grill some chicken?

Young Hollywood

I want to grill some chicken! Yeah. I do. Let's do it. Yeah. Does this look like the tools of an amateur? What is this thing called?

Cory Monteith

This is called a, uh, chicken, uh, movement facilitator. Bam. Bam. Bam. Bam. Bam. Bam. When we come back. Another notch! Do you want some chicken?

Young Hollywood

Before he moved in this house, he had never had a barbecue. Never had a barbecue.

Cory Monteith

Never ever ever. Ever in my entire life. I grew up in a, a disadvantaged cold place called Canada. Without barbecues, we all drive, uh, ice cars and have polar bears for pets.

Young Hollywood

What would you do when you had friends over then? How would you cook?

Cory Monteith

We would just eat snow cones. And go ice fishing.

Young Hollywood

We're cooking it up. We're having a cue. You're taking these tongs in your own hand. You're taking these people's culinary experience in your own hands.

Cory Monteith

I'm not a cook. Just so you know. There you go. Feel the power. Feel the power. Feel the power.

Young Hollywood

So, we just want to make sure that it's cooked all the way. Cooked all the way through. Any other rules? Any other steps that I need to learn?

Cory Monteith

Well, I'll teach you the ABC's of grilling.

Young Hollywood

Okay, let's do it.

Cory Monteith

Always be confident. Your grilling skills. ABC.

Young Hollywood

I'm confident with that. You can't you can't second guess. Can't do it. So, how often do you grill and and how often do you cook? Are you a good cook?

Cory Monteith

I'm a terrible cook. I'm a terrible cook, but I'm a masterful griller. Oh. Ha, brings me a lot of satisfaction. You feel like a man.

Young Hollywood

I feel like a man too. I like to, you know, when I have days off, I just fix my car and grill meat in my backyard. Like TGI Fridays. Let's light up. Yeah. We're hungry.

Cory Monteith

Sweet. Sweet. Whoop. Oh my amazing. It's amazing. Amazing. Try a bite. Let's see if it's good.

Young Hollywood

It's good. It's good. You have yourself to thank. I do. Whoa. That was a good meal. I think, uh, we need to work a little bit of this off. What do you think, Michelle?

Cory Monteith

I think we should. How are we gonna do that? Do you have a treadmill here? Just you wait. Before any kind of rigorous workout routine, you need to be thoroughly warmed up. You don't want to you don't want to workout cold muscles. It's bad for you. So, we're going to do a couple of pull ups here. Do some pull ups.

Young Hollywood

Here we go. Yeah! Man, you could just keep going all day. Woo. We're warmed up, we're ready to go. Hit it.

Cory Monteith

And so what what this is is a wide fly push-up. So, we're going to be doing push-ups nice and wide.

Young Hollywood

Show me how it's done. Down here. See? Okay. And then you go a little wider. And now get a get a number in your head of how many you want to do. I'm done. You're done. You just want to do one. Let's do another one. Get a number in your head of how many you want to do and go for it. How many are you going to do?

Cory Monteith
