@DamianMcginty’s interview with The Huffington Post.

Because your character is living with Brittany, you’ve been spending a lot of time with Heather Morris. What has that been like?

Heather is incredible. My very first scene that I ever did on “Glee” was with Heather, and she was just so welcoming. I feel like Heather is the smart version of Brittany. She just has some incredible one-liners. She’s one of the funniest girls I’ve ever met. And of course, she’s gorgeous, so that always helps.

Heather is also an incredible dancer, and I know that you’re not a very good dancer. So has she given you any tips?

She hasn’t yet! But now that you’ve mentioned it to me, I might go onto set tomorrow and ask her for a tip. There hasn’t been a Rory and Brittany scene where she teaches him how to dance. I don’t think that there will be a happy ending to that story. Trust me, I got over the fact a very long time ago that I can’t dance, and I never will be able to dance. I just blame it on Rory now. I say, “Listen guys, Rory can’t dance, so I really can’t show off my true dancing skills.”

You’ve also had a few scary scenes with Naya Rivera, who plays Santana.

Now, Naya, she’s amazing, but she really scares me sometimes. I’ve done a lot of scenes with Naya, and every last one of them is terrifying.

Has anyone in the cast had trouble understanding your accent?

It’s been a pretty smooth ride with my accent, but there is one person who doesn’t quite understand me. I don’t know if she does this on purpose, but it’s pretty funny. Lea literally, after everything I say, will look at me like I have three heads. She just does not understand anything I say. It’s very funny. I think I have to repeat everything twice to Lea. Other than that, it’s been pretty smooth, which I totally didn’t expect.

So, we’re all a little obsessed with Glee’s newest heartthrob Damian McGinty. And here’s why… via his interview with AOL TV. 

1. Lea Michele doesn’t understand him!

2. He’s BFFs with Heather Morris — but he’s actually afraid of Naya Rivera
“My very first scene that I ever did on ‘Glee’ was with Heather, and she was just so welcoming. I feel like Heather is the smart version of Brittany. She just has some incredible one-liners.
