CORY Monteith used to binge on cocaine and ecstasy.

According to one of Cory’s friends, the actor — who died on Saturday after taking a toxic mix of heroin and alcohol — had previously overcome addiction to get his life back on track.

“He used to be a crazy party animal and I know ecstasy and cocaine was the drug of choice,” the friend told RadarOnline.

“His family is in pieces with the loss…it’s not anything anyone prepared for.

“It’s not like the Amy Winehouse case, where people were kind of expecting it. He really seemed like he was on the straight and narrow.

“My only worry is whether he was the best actor in the world and could hide drugs that easily. But I don’t think anyone could even do that.

“He wasn’t zoned out or super hyper. He was just normal. There’s no other way to describe it. That’s what is crushing is we are all waiting with baited breath terrified that he was hiding something from us.”
