Darren Criss is Glee's newest breakout star, and although he's excited to be on the show, he tells Breaking Celebrity News: "It's tiring!"
The 23-year-old actor/musician became an overnight star when his catchy acapella rendition of Katy Perry's Teenage Dream quickly shot to number one on iTunes, becoming the most downloaded song ever from the hit Fox show.
"I'm so lucky that I got that part because it's a great scene because I'm a big Katy Perry fan," Criss told Breaking Celebrity News in an exclusive interview.
"It's just work and not to cheapen it or take it for granted but you go there and you do your job and people you work with are your colleagues and your coworkers so, it is work by the end of it."
The cast of Glee is one of the hardest working young casts on television right now and Criss admitted being thrown into the works is exhausting.
"We do have fun, but it's tiring and these kids are exhausted," Criss said of the Glee cast.
