Friday Night Lights star wants to kick himself for not joining Glee

[Brian Damage]

Scott Porter has revealed that he regrets not auditioning for Glee.

The Friday Night Lights star explained that he decided not to try out for the show because he thought he was too old.

In an interview with Parade, the 30-year-old said: "Oh man, I really want to kick myself in the face for Glee, because I kind of did the stupid actor thing where you go, 'Okay, I'm at a certain point in my life now where I only want to play this guy or that guy'.

"When Glee was casting, I thought, 'I'm too old to be a student. I need to stop playing high-school kids'. Then it came out and [creator] Ryan Murphy was like, 'We've got a bunch of adults playing kids, but we don't care, that's our show'. Cory Monteith is X amount of years old and he's playing a high schooler. So I was like, 'Dang, I should have gone for it."

However, Porter explained that he is now trying to get a cameo on the show.

"Now I'm, like, at the back door knocking, 'Can I please come in and play on the Glee set because I beatbox, I sing, I dance'," he joked. "If music's gonna be involved, that's my thing. I got my start in the off-Broadway cast of Altar Boyz, so I'm like pitching ideas daily to Glee."

Porter concluded: "I think it's such a unique show. God, I love it. So there you have my regrets. I've laid them out on the table."
