Lea Michele Talks Cory Monteith to 'Marie Claire Mexico' Before His Death

Lea Michele is gorgeous on the cover of Marie Claire Mexico‘s August 2013 issue, on newsstands July 30.

The 26-year-old Glee actress took part in the cover shoot and interview for the magazine one month before the tragic death of her boyfriend Cory Monteith.

“It’s more interesting having a relationship with someone you work with because we get more attention because we play boyfriend and girlfriend on the show and we are also in real life. But he is the best person I know, he has made my life so incredible, and I am so thankful for him and not only to have him as a partner but also as a co-worker,” Lea told the magazine about Cory, before his death. “It is important to have someone that supports you and encourage you, someone that makes you feel that you are unstoppable, that you can do anything in the world because you have him.”

While at the shoot, editor-in-chief Ariadne Grant said that Cory arrived to support Lea. “Cory showed up in great spirits and was very nice to everybody there; he even took pictures with whoever asked for it. He just asked for a Coke and stayed there watching the shooting until it was done,” E! Online reports her saying.
