What is the biggest thing that keeps you grounded?
The biggest thing that keeps me grounded? I think unfortunately for me, I am very, very well aware that I’m human, and I’m reminded every single day because I’m just an awkward, clumsy person. I think when I was growing up, every time I’d see someone in a TV show or a movie, I’d think oh, they must be perfect, they must be flawless. And I’m very, very flawed. So that definitely keeps me grounded, my flaws.

Also, I have a younger sister who is never impressed at anything I do. Anything I accomplish, she’s never impressed at. So that helps.

What does she say to you?
Well, it’s so funny, because she’s a special needs [kid], so she doesn’t really understand anything that I’m doing, or achieving, or anything like that. And I’ll tell her, “Hannah, guess what, your brother got a Golden Globe!” And she’s like, “That’s nice, how are the dogs?” (laughs) She’s just uninterested. And I remember one time, I was being a good big brother and I took her to Jamba Juice, just her and I, and these people asked for my photo and I took a photo with them. When they asked “Oh, can we get a photo with you,” my sister goes, “Why?” (chuckles) Like she just doesn’t get it.

It’s almost good that she doesn’t get it, right?
I know! It’s fantastic. And my parents tell me that whenever I have a big episode in ‘Glee,’ she falls asleep. (laughs) But whenever one of my male co-stars have a big episode, she’s all ears, because she has crushes on them.

Which one does she have a big crush on?
Oh, she’s in love with Mark [Salling]. So whenever Mark has anything, like a song or anything, she’s up for the entire episode. But whenever I have anything, she falls asleep.

Awwww.
