Could you imagine ‘Glee’ without the crazy antics of Quinn Fabray? Glee wouldn’t be the sensation it is now without the drama that went down with her pregnancy in its first season, so it is now surprising to learn that Dianna Agron’s character almost got written off from the show before it even premiered. Apparently at that time, none of the casting directors, except for Robert Ulrich, thought that Dianna or any of the actresses who auditioned for the part, was perfect to play the overly insecure but popularly enchanting Quinn Fabray.

In an interview with Nylon Magazine, she said, “I went in and read, and they called me back two days later, and he told me to come back and straighten my hair and wear something sexy. I was like, ‘First of all, what is…”sexy”?’ I had been at an audition in Venice, and I was wearing the exact same thing I had on before, because it was my lucky audition dress that week. My hair was curly, so I went to [a drugstore] and bought a straightener and straightened it at Starbucks,” looks like her lucky audition dress worked after all.

So perhaps it was a good gamble on the part of the casting directors and producers to retain Quinn in the story, after all, no matter how unrealistic some of her and he co-stars’ plotlines may be, Dianna Agron is still one of the many plausible reasons people continue watching the Fox dramedy.
