Cory Monteith, a Canadian actor best known for playing Finn Hudson on the hit show "Glee," was found dead Saturday in a Vancouver hotel room, police announced on Saturday. Monteith was 31 years old.

The Hollywood Reporter reports that he was found at the Fairmont Pacific Rim hotel.

Vancouver Police say they believe he was alone at the time of his death, and do not suspect foul play:

Shortly after noon today, the Vancouver Police received a call from the BC Ambulance Service regarding a sudden death in a room on the 21st floor of the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel at 1038 Canada Place in downtown Vancouver.
Police attended within minutes of the call and paramedics advised the man in the room was clearly deceased. Coroner’s staff did attend the scene.

The deceased has been identified as 31-year-old actor Cory Monteith, who achieved great fame on the popular TV series Glee.

Before I give further information, on behalf of the Vancouver Police, I want to pass on our condolences to the family, friends, castmates and millions of fans of Mr. Monteith. As was the case in countless homes, I watched Glee regularly with my daughters, and I know there will be shock and sadness in many households with the news of his tragic death.

Mr. Monteith checked into the hotel in July 6th and was due to check out of the room today. There were others with Mr. Monteith in his room earlier last night, but video and fob key entries show him returning to his room by himself in the early morning hours and we believe he was alone when he died.

When he missed his check-out time, staff went to the room at noon and found his body.

We know there will be considerable interest in this case, and we have detectives assigned to the case who attended with our Forensic Identification Unit to examine the scene, to ensure to the extent possible that there are no unanswered questions.

Hotel video has been secured as well as room access records. Our investigators have spoken with hotel staff, who are providing the utmost in cooperation.

An autopsy is schduled for Monday. The Coroner will be determining the next steps with respect to establishing cause of death, but all indications are that there was no foul play.

Wasn't a big fan of Glee but seemed like he was on his way up as far as acting. He's been in rehab twice recently so most likely he OD'd or perhaps a suicide.

Wow, way too young to go although at first I though he was in his early twenties because he was on Glee. Don't know why so many still fall for the trap of drugs when things like this happen so frequently.

RIP

I might cop flack here but if drugs were involved i have no sympaphy for him I'm sick of these guys who have a good thing going for then and they fuck it up.

On the other hand if there was no drugs then rip.

He was addicted to drugs when he was 13, his parents divorced when he was 7 and he hardly saw his father as he was in the army. Apart from the acting, sounds like he had a terrible life.

Drugs is still NEVER the answer. No matter how fucked up your life is, why would you want to make it be more fucked up? I side with Darth here. When your addiction to drugs is what kills you, I have no sympathy. It was your fault. He was famous, rich, and had everything going for him.

So easy to say when you don't know the guy. Aren't you one that tries to defend Benoit still?

NEver watched Glee, which is funny since I love musicals. But never watched it, seen this guy plastered all over my local news because he died in Vancouver. Apparently it was an OD, and like Heath Ledger won't shed no tears or care about excuses for a person who ODs. Don't think much of people who can't handle their drugs.

Do we really need people in these threads who say things like he deserved it because he was a druggie or I have no sympathy because he was a user? Just stay away if that's your opinion. The guy was an addict. Just like you guys are probably addicted to using the internet, he was addicted to using drugs. It's really a shame when people fail to understand this. Drugs are bad, yes. Doesn't make him a bad person.
