'Glee' star reveals murky past

Glee star Cory Monteith has revealed details of his criminal record as a Canadian teenager.

The actor, who plans Finn Hudson in the popular television show, admitted to Rolling Stone that his life on screen does not bear much resemblance to his own experience growing up.

"I dropped out of school when I was 14 to go f**k around with my friends and live a lifestyle of crime and pay no mind to authority figures," said Monteith.

"I wasn't killing people. I didn't hurt people. But I still think any minute I'm going to get fired and shipped back to Canada in handcuffs for stealing that car stereo."

Monteith said he had been arrested for petty theft and drunken episodes.
