[Blind Gossip] The cast of Glee is in shock over the passing of their colleague and friend, Cory Monteith. One specific cast member was walking around a store in SoHo yesterday with three friends, talking about how they would like to honor Cory.
“I’m going to get a dog. And I’m going to name him ‘Cory Monteith’,” said the Glee cast member.
“That would be disrespectful,” said one of the friends.
“No, it’s not! It would be cool! That way, whenever I talk to him, it will be like having Cory around. Come here, Cory Monteith! Get the ball, Cory Monteith!”
“That’s an incredibly stupid idea,” said another friend.
“Well, I like it, and I’m going to do it,” said the Glee cast member.

It’s Chord Overstreet from Glee! Source: BlindGossip.com
Cory Monteith died on July 13, 2013. This conversation among Chord and his friends happened at the All Saints store in SoHo on the afternoon of July 16, 2013.
The original blind item pretty much tells the rest of the story.
Chord owns several dogs (Harley, Apollo, and Banjo?) so he clearly loves animals. To the left is a pic of Ashley Benson of Pretty Little Liars kissing a dog that Chord is holding.
We don’t believe that Chord he has obtained a new dog in the past few months. When he does, we hope that he chooses a name that won’t make people wince quite as much.
Congratulations to Melly123, who was first with the correct guess!
