Dianna Agron: 'Paparazzi can be invasive'

Dianna Agron has insisted that the paparazzi can sometimes appear "threatening" when they are trying to snap her picture.

The Glee star told Interview magazine that she doesn't attract much attention from photographers in her daily life.

"On a day-to-day basis, it doesn't really affect me much because the places that I go in LA very rarely have paparazzi, and if there are fans, they're so nice and easygoing," Agron said.

The 20-year-old Savannah native went on to say that she's yet to comprehend how to react to the rare occasions when she is confronted by the press.

She explained: "Sometimes there are paparazzi that take photos and you don't know they're there... And then there's other times where they're two feet away from your face and it's invasive and it feels threatening, so you don't want to be smiling. You just want to get out of that situation.

"You know people can look at it as, 'Why is she playful there and why is she so cool here?' It's not that. It's just literally, they're shouting nasty things at you and they're in your face. You can see a picture and people can interpret it different ways."

Earlier this week, Agron revealed that she damaged her voice while filming the new sci-fi drama I Am Number Four .

Salling 'defends Glee co-star GQ pics'

Mark Salling has defended his Glee co-stars against controversy over racy photos appearing in the latest issue of GQ.

Stars Lea Michele and Dianna Agron faced considerable criticism this week after posing in revealing clothing with Cory Monteith in a multi-page spread for the magazine.

However, Salling - who did not appear in the shoot - has insisted that the pictures are "not a big deal".

"Personally, I think it's not a big deal. Lea is 23 years old and has every right to do that. I mean, come on!" he said during an interview with presenter Jo Jo Wright on KIIS-FM.

"We're obviously not in high school. It's tongue-in-cheek that we're in high school. People are starving, [Dallas football team] Cowboys are losing - there's more important things to worry about in the world."

Agron has since apologised for any potential offense caused by the photos.
