Police were reportedly called to Cory Monteith’s Hollywood Hills house early Sunday after a birthday party he was throwing for a pal got too noisy.

The “Glee” star’s neighbors complained about the ruckus at approximately 4:30 a.m., leading to the visit from cops.

But things cooled down quickly, with Monteith agreeing to end the party (and the noise) without incident, according to TMZ.

The site reports that other “Glee” cast members were in attendance, and that Monteith’s roommate was ticketed for the loud music.

“There will not be a ‘Glee’ spinoff,” Fox president Kevin Reilly told the media on Sunday at the Television Critics Association’s winter confab in Pasadena, California.

At one point, there had been talk that graduating seniors Rachel (Lea Michele), Kurt (Chris Colfer), and Finn (Cory Monteith) would be featured in a spinoff about their lives in New York post-high school.

Reilly noted “those characters will graduate,” but wouldn’t elaborate on their futures. He only offered that what happens toward the end of this season will be an “interesting idea that I think is going to give us something cool to dig into for next season.”

He did, however, confirm that Michele would be returning to the series, adding, “We’d want to see them all back,” but mentioned there were “contractual” questions for the other stars.

Playing his cards close to the vest, Reilly said that what happens to the characters will be “a good thing for the show.”

Perhaps their post-high school lives will be weaved within next season’s storylines?

Shortly before there was talk of a spinoff, “Glee” creator Ryan Murphy told the Hollywood Reporter that “more characters are leaving than are staying” come graduation day.

Cory Monteith is “bringing the drama to the Glee,” according to Star magazine, which claims he “wants out!”

The tabloid’s so-called “insider” says the actor’s been “complaining about long hours, inadequate pay and miserable working conditions,” and it could mean an early exit from the series.

Star‘s sources allege that “Cory’s days are numbered,” especially after “Glee” creator Ryan Murphy supposedly failed to make Monteith happy by cutting back on the cast’s work hours.

“[Show execs] feel like there’s no pleasing Cory. The smart money says that not only will Cory not be back next season, but he might not even finish this one,” claims the mag’s source.

But while Monteith (along with co-stars Chris Colfer and Lea Michele) has been the subject of much post-Season 3 speculation, there is not any on-set “drama,” and Monteith will not be bailing on the show mid-season.

A source close to Monteith tells Gossip Cop the Star report is a fabrication “not based in reality.”

Chris Colfer, Lea Michele and Cory Monteith may be graduating, but they’re not entirely off “Glee.”

A week and a half ago, series creator Ryan Murphy said Monteith, Michele and Colfer’s characters would be graduating, and noted that “more characters are leaving than are staying” at the end of Season Three.

But now, the show’s co-creator Brad Falchuck is singing a slightly different tune.

This morning, Falchuck explained at Comic-Con, “They’re graduating, but that doesn’t mean they’re leaving the show.”

He added, “They are not done with the show after this season.”

Expect to see their characters trying to make their way in the music business after high school.

Chris Colfer, Lea Michele, and Cory Monteith will not be returning for the fourth season of “Glee.”

The three stars will be among those who graduate at the end of next season.

“You can keep them on the show for six years and people will criticize you for not being realistic, or you can be really true to life and say when they started the show they were very clearly sophomores and they should graduate at the end of their senior year,” show creator Ryan Murphy told the Hollywood Reporter.

He added that “more characters are leaving than are staying” come graduation day at the end of Season Three.

Other characters who will be in caps and gowns will be revealed on this season’s premiere on September 20.

Murphy says a good part of the characters’ plotlines will revolve around what they plan to do after graduation from high school.

“I’m lucky to be alive,” says Cory Monteith in a revealing interviewing with Parade.

The “Glee” star opens up about his troubled, drug-riddled past.

By the time Monteith, who grew up in Victoria, British Columbia, was 13, he was skipping school to get drunk and high. And by the age of 16, he had attended a dozen different schools for troubled teens before dropping out entirely.

“I was out of control,” admits Monteith, noting he used “anything and everything, as much as possible… I had a serious problem.”

Fearful that her son might die, Monteith’s mom staged an intervention when the actor was 19.

“That’s when I first went to rehab. I did the stint but then went back to doing exactly what I left off doing,” says Monteith.

He recalls he then “stole a significant amount of money from a family member… I knew I was going to get caught, but I was so desperate I didn’t care. It was a cry for help. I was confronted and I said, ‘Yeah, it was me.’ It was the first honorable, truthful thing that had come out of my mouth in years.”

It wasn’t the first time “things went missing,” says Monteith, but this time around his family told him to clean up or they’d call the cops.

“I finally said, ‘I’m gonna start looking at my life and figure out why I’m doing this.’”

After moving in with a family friend, quitting drugs and working as a roofer, Monteith started taking an acting class and received positive feedback. It was the first time he remembers “working hard and being good at something.”
And that’s why he now wants to share his past ordeal. “I don’t want kids to think it’s okay to drop out of school and get high, and they’ll be famous actors, too,” says Monteith. “But for those people who might give up: Get real about what you want and go after it. If I can, anyone can.”

This past spring, Monteith earned a high school diploma from a school in Victoria, British Columbia.

The Oscar winner, who plays a sex ed teacher, belts out Joan Jett‘s “Do You Wanna Touch Me” before offering advice to the students, including Lea Michele, Heather Morris, and Cory Monteith.

Paltrow’s character tells the class, “Just remember, when you’re having sex with someone, you’re having sex with everyone they’ve ever had sex with,” adding, “And everyone’s got a random.”

“There’s a new romance developing on Glee – but this one is off camera,” begins a piece on RadarOnline.

The site goes on to report that photos “caught” Glee star Naya Rivera “holding hands and getting very close with new cast member, Chord Overstreet” during her birthday party last weekend at the Las Vegas club The Bank.

RadarOnline writes, “Other cast members Cory Monteith and Kevin McHale [were] at the soiree as well, but none got cozier than Chord and Naya.”

According to the blog, the two co-stars “even kissed at one point and walked out of the club hand in hand.”

Tellingly, despite all of RadarOnline’s photos, the blog doesn’t have one single shot of the two kissing. And rather than starting its story with the news about how the two co-stars kissed, the site instead buried the information sheepishly all the way at the end.

Want to know why?

Because Overstreet and Rivera did NOT kiss. “That’s made up,” says a mutual pal of Gossip Cop‘s and Overstreet’s, who adds there’s nothing going on between the two co-stars.

Additionally, a rep for Overstreet tells Gossip Cop, “They’re good really good friends – that’s all.”

Fortunately, the stars of Glee are more on-key than RadarOnline’s reporting.

Once the gossip press decides to tag a celebrity with a certain label, the majority of stories become filtered through that characterization.

It’s become common, for instance, to slap together “reporting” that portrays Lea Michele as a “diva.”

And it’s especially common for sites as derivative and careless as HollywoodLife.

According to the site, Michele is “officially on [its] diva radar” after allegedly acting “exactly like her stuck-up character” at the “Glee” season premiere party in Los Angeles on Tuesday.

Michele supposedly “held court in the roped off VIP section with three security guards dressed in black surrounding her at all times.” Ignoring the fans who waited to meet her, the actress reportedly “never left her perch and sat by herself with her team the majority of the night.”

The HollywoodLife account sounded dubious to us, and with good reason: It’s not accurate.

A source close to Michele tells Gossip Cop the actress was seated with cast mates including Amber Riley and Cory Monteith in the VIP area, not “by herself,” as the site claims.

Nor did Michele have three black-clad bodyguards — her table happened to be near the ropes, where the event’s security was stationed, and the security was no different than it would be at any high-profile party of that size.

And as many of HollywoodLife’s own commenters observe (and as our insider assures us), Michele did interact with fans and pose for photos throughout the evening.

Maybe the editors who filed this lame (and lazy) report just couldn’t see from the kiddie table.

Like a gerbil that hasn’t learned to avoid the electrified pellet, Star magazine keeps making ridiculous Taylor Swift claims despite disastrous results.

Last month, the mag alleged Swift was back with Taylor Lautner.

She wasn’t, and Gossip Cop busted it.

Before that, Star claimed Swift might play Lautner’s on-screen girlfriend. That was wrong, too. So was a story about the duo disturbing hotel guests with music lessons.

Now it appears the tabloid has tired of Swift-Lautner drivel… so it’s moved on to Swift and someone else.

The country cutie is “still having a love affair with notorious ladies’ man John Mayer,” claims Star.

“Still”? Um, Swift was never in a relationship with Mayer. But let’s see what the tab has to say.

According to a so-called “source,” Swift has been “meeting up all over the country” with Mayer, behind the back of her alleged boyfriend Cory Monteith. “Taylor will drop anything to see [Mayer],” reports the magazine. All he has to do is text her, another “source” claims, and she’ll “come running” “no matter what time it is!”

So let’s get this straight.

Two superstars with fully booked schedules — and whose every move is followed by a voracious press — have been meeting secretly from coast to coast at the drop of a hat?

Forgive us for thinking the whole thing is absurd.

But just in case, we reached out to sources close to Swift, all of whom tell Gossip Cop the story is complete nonsense.

Taylor Swift “stepped out on back-to-back dates with Glee‘s Cory Monteith and her ex, Twilight‘s Taylor Lautner,” according to Star magazine.

Hmm, this sounds familiar.

Monteith and Lautner are “both smitten,” the tab claims, “so which hottie will win her heart?”

Star then breaks down the two supposed suitors, setting up a “Man No. 1″ vs. “Man No. 2″ battle.

There’s no new information here, of course. As everyone already knows, she lunched with Lautner in Beverly Hills last week.

It was a friendly meet-up. There were other people present, as Star even notes.

But the mag insists it’s a romance, saying the two Taylors might be “giving it another try just three months after they split,” and that even though Monteith and Swift are dating, the songstress “has a backup plan” in Lautner.

Actually, the only thing evident here is that Star had no “backup plan” for a Taylor Swift article this week.

As a source close to the performer told Gossip Cop, she is still “happily single.” Swift and Lautner are just friends.

Claiming she’s in the middle of a “love triangle” doesn’t make it so, no matter how many times outlets repeat it.

“EXCLUSIVE DETAILS! Taylor Swift Is Dating Cory Monteith… But She Isn’t Totally Over Her Ex, Taylor Lautner!” declares the ever confounding HollywoodLife, which uses the word “exclusive” the way we use commas.

But before we get into today’s bust, we should note that HollywoodLife has three problems:

(1)  Its reporting

(2)   Gossip Cop

(3)   Its own search engine

Now the bust…

HollywoodLife, in its latest attempt to throw everything against the wall and see what sticks, breathlessly notes, Taylor and Cory had a date night at the Pinz Bowling Center in Studio City, CA with pals Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens tagging along.”

The site also claims Swift and Lautner had lunch yesterday in Beverly Hills, and that the “Twilight” star might be “trying to win her back,” but “just like on their previous dates, the Valentine’s Day co-stars, brought their moms along as chaperones!”

Wait!

Wasn’t it HollywoodLife that said just seven weeks ago that Swift was NOT dating Monteith — and instead was seeing John Mayer?

Don’t remember?

No problem. We have it here…

According to HollywoodLife, in a February 2 piece titled, “EXCLUSIVE! A Source Tells HollywoodLife.com That Taylor Swift is ‘Definitely Dating’ John Mayer!” the silly site boldly stated, “Cory is just a decoy. [Swift] isn’t really dating him. They’re friends.”

A decoy?

So now Moneith has gone from “decoy” to “dating”?

Here is the fact of the matter — HollywoodLife was dead wrong about Swift and Mayer back then, and while the singing sensation has been on a few dates with Monteith, a source close to Swift says she’s still “happily single.”

As for Lautner, the two had a friendly lunch yesterday – Swift was in town for a photo shoot and catching up with pals.

And as opposed to HollywoodLife’s report, they were not joined by their moms. In fact, none of the other people at their lunch were moms.

Once again, HollywoodLife is “exclusively” wrong when it comes to bothersome things like facts.

Gossip Cop is amused by HollywoodLife’s strategy of throwing EVERYTHING against the wall and seeing what sticks.

Just days after saying, “we know a cute couple when we see one!” about Taylor Swift and Cory Monteith, and even asking readers to vote on “a couple” name for them, such as “Cortay” and “Swifteith,” HollywoodLife has done a complete turnaround and now claims, “Cory is just a decoy. She isn’t really dating him. They’re friends.”

Huh?

But we like the name “Swifteith”…

Instead, the site now proclaims that “Taylor Swift is ‘definitely dating’ John Mayer.”

“Definitely” is what they say – today. (We’ll see about tomorrow.)

But just in case they’re wrong about that as well, HollywoodLife now has a so-called “source,” who says Mayer and Swift, “aren’t ‘boyfriend and girlfriend’ or anything as provincial as that, but they have taken their friendship to the next level.”

For those who are confused, here’s the correct usage of the word “definitely”: Swift and Monteith have definitely gone on dates, and the singer has also definitely hung out with John Mayer, but HollywoodLife definitely has very little information about Swift’s personal life.

Gossip Cop would like to warn, however, that it’s a tad early to start buying gifts from a registry.
