Authorities said the cause of death was not immediately apparent but that there were no signs of foul play. CNN reports that Monteith had spent time in a rehab earlier this year. The star was fairly open about his substance abuse problem. In an interview to a magazine, he had revealed that he got addicted as a 13-year-old and went to rehab for the first time after his mother and friends intervened when he was 19 years old. Reuters/CNN
