The reason what Brody did was wrong wasn't the escorting part. It's that he hid it from Rachel. Like you need to know if your partner is sleeping with other people, even if it's just for his job, for health reasons at the very least.
Condoms and stuff exist. And these are the modern days, a sex worker of all people *has* to be clean. They get themselves checked frequently, else they're outta business Yeah Rachel deserved honesty but he was ashamed of selling himself for money to pay his fees, nonetheless she should have known the truth and Rachel's reaction to that was something I totally expected from her. Brody was good, he was sweet and caring, but he just wasn't good with Rachel
@@greenrangeralex who's denying that? I literally said in the second paragraph that Rachel deserved honesty. A relationship requires honesty, and Rachel wouldn't be wrong if she didn't wanna be with a gigolo, those are her beliefs Brody actually cared for Rachel, they just weren't meant to be. I just wish Brody's exit from Rachel's life was handled a bit better instead of Finn beating him up
I guess I can understand why he hid it because chances are if he tells rachel about his job he's gonna lose her and he's scared because he actually cared abt her..
The show runners didn’t understand poverty or being less privileged. Sure they tried to address it with Sam in one episode but not much else changed. They could’ve repeated his costumes more often or done something.
The problem is that he put Rachel's health in danger (not that i actually like her but this is a serious issue) by lying to her. He was sleeping with a bunch of people and didn't tell rachel. Who knows how much diseases he has. The sex work isn't what is the problem
Yes it is bad that he lied to Rachel it was a violation of her trust and put her at risk but the show went wrong by villanising him when he is in truth a young person in an incredibly vulnerable position. Like he was a victim of his situation and the show glosses over this
Everyone’s hating on my man Brody but he’s actually not a bad guy. I mean him and Rachel might not have been the best for each other but Brody’s still a sweet dude who doesn’t deserve tHe HaTE
He was genuinely probably one of the only well written characters from that show. Along with Santana, those two were so well written, and then everyone else was just kinda there.
Yeah umm... he was definitely seeing Rachel while at the same time completely unbeknownst to her having sex with who knows how many other people. He definitely should have been honest with her and let her make the choice for herself.
i mean, he could have played it a number of ways 1. he could have told her when he knew he had a genuine interest in her 2. he could have told her after he knew that she loved him as mich as he loved her 3. he could have told her on his deathbed i think he wanted to choose the third option, but then Auntie Tana came onto the scene
The guy who played Brody did such a good job. You can see how dead he is inside when he tells the woman that they only take cash. He glances at the money before looking back at her and his expression is just heartbreaking
So off topic from the actual scene, this is lowkey one of my favorite glee covers from season 4. Rachel’s verse especially is so good, her last note right before the beat drop gives me goosebumps every time.
OMG, his face at the end... He doesn't want to do it, yet he needs to pay for school. And he's one of the best students in NYADA! This makes me sad for him.
@@amiwhami he never cheated on rachel. He dumped rachel cause she cheated with puck when she found out he was with santana a year before. Thats what drove him to Quinn
Finn never cheated rachel LOL He dumped her because she cheated to him with puck. Second, Brody is not bad but was a liar when he dont tell her that true about his job
This story line still pisses me off. Brody was so much better for Rachel than Finn and made much more sense. They literally made him an escort because that was the only way that they could explain why Rachel would break up with him. SMDH.
It would have been a great growth moment if the two reconcilied this in some way. Either if Brody brings it up, which would have been the adult thing to do, or even after the fact.
go brody go! i loved this character a lot, it's such a shame people hated on him so hard that the actor had to delete his twitter (?) account for some time. he's a great singer, not a bad guy. the writers wanted us to see him that way as it seems, tho.
@@Blackcanvasart How could anyone hate on him playing Sebastian?! Literally my fave character on the entire show, with Kurt being second to him. But genuinely how?! I hate the fact that people hate on the actors, if they dislike the character fine but they don’t need to hate on the actors for it too!
There is absolutely nothing wrong with sex work, but if you are going to be in a relationship with someone, it requires honesty. Brody should have told Rachel the truth. He lied to her on multiple occasions. THAT is what makes him horrible, not how he earns his money
I don’t think y’all understand, the writers didn’t villainize Brody for being a sex worker, they villainized him lying to rachel about being with other women and possibly exposing her to STDs.
… you can do that without the sex worker plot line? And that doesn’t make sense, this is obviously not Brody being some random on a corner, this is obviously a decently upscale escort service and those always hold their workers AND clients to stricter standards when it comes to STDs. He could have exposed Rachel by just being a cheating asshole (which funnily enough, Rachel did cheat yet the fandom didn’t demonize her for that). And this whole idea sex workers are dirty is super gross and years later it’s still horrific people say this line or use it to defend this plot point as if it’s not super gross anyways. Hell, Artie is the only KNOWN character with an STD and he got that just from being a regular asshole so no, Brody wouldn’t have “exposed” her, in fact he’s probably more regular tested than the average individual.
Glee had many numbers and covers I loved. While there are a few songs I like more than this one, this is probably my favorite dance number of the show. Considering there’s barely a trace of the main characters here except for Rachel’s beautiful solo [I’ve always hated her character but I have to admit she killed it here], that’s saying something. Amazing choreography and shooting angles, the song was also great. And yeah, while this isn’t ideal, I really don’t see why they had to off Brody. Sam was doing stg similar (not the same, but close), and no one villainized him....
Same. I feel like he was just a jerk to Kurt, and shouldn’t have slept with Cassie. (I know the relationship was open, but still.) he also should’ve told Rachel about this.
Omg... I was in highschool when i see this.... damn..... Escort and Marina and Diamonds..... 2 things that i loveeeee... Also damn.... Brody is so darn hot.... Even back then i had admiration for his character. Midwestern boy trying to survive in NYC (my one and only fave city).... I hope the city wont eat him alive... Also, Rachel, i know, sex work is not something easy to accept in relationships.... But treat him better, doll...
I don't like how they treated him. He wasn't a mean people, and I get that being a prostitute isn't something to promote in a good way ,but he has his reasons, and if he could he wouldn't do that. I feel like the writer lacked compassion writing his story.
Yes we can agree that maybe Rachel and Brody weren’t the best couple. But we gotta admit that there voices together are so good, this song, creep, and give your heart a break.
Am I the only knew Brody from a show called “Terra Nova”? I actually watched that show first, so I’m like, “hey, it’s that dude from Terra Nova!” U should watch the show. It’s good
I really feel bad for Brody, he star to work as a sex worker and he seems pretty uncomfortable when is with the lady but he didn't see another choice. I would understand why Rachel got angry with Brody if her anger where because he didn't trust enough in Rachel to tell her, in any case Rachel was looking for a excuse to done with Brody.
The thing with Brody is, i don't think he is a bad person. He was an escort which is okay, it was his choice to go to NYADA which is an extremely prestigeous school and most likely very expensive, he most likely also has chosen the fastest way to get a lots of money. He might have been even fine with it before he met Rachel, but that was when the guilt started to come in. His mistake was ultimately to hide it from Rachel, yea she might have not dated him but it only would've been fair. No matter if you see it as cheating or not, its still toxic for a relationship to hide a job like that.
The woman who dances with Brody was my Jazz teacher at a summer dance camp, I felt so connected to the cast hahaha
@@giorgiafrancioni5296 i was shock to i went back and looked at it afterwards
@@olgamartinez8179 I wish, if I could add pictures I would

exactly, Facts, he needed to at least know if she was okay with it, and with Rachel being Rachel, she wouldn't have been.

@@rishiheda8186 condoms don't protect women from cervix cancer. You should now that.
am I the only one think he's not bad. he take that job bc he need money to pay for his tuition.
But I think the lie was the worst thing
yeah the lie was the worst thing.
@@quinn752 agreed they had the best chemistry of all of Rachel’s parrings if you did not count the final episode.
2013 was a different time
@@flightofthestars really? would u be pissed? like what kinda of STD he had been giving her
I loved Brody. Not with Rachel though. This was an awesome performance.
They’re not meant to be
Agreed
Kan ik nu wel goed typen ja dat kan ik
agreed
Really I always thought that they made the most sense. At least if you take the last episode out.
i really hate how the show villainized him after the reveal that he did sex work to pay his tuition like so not cool
That problem is not that. He lied about his job. He never told the true about that.
Yeah it wasn’t the sex work it was the fact that he lied
The show runners didn’t understand poverty or being less privileged. Sure they tried to address it with Sam in one episode but not much else changed. They could’ve repeated his costumes more often or done something.

Omg same and brodys voice on this song works so well 🤩
Right?! I SCREAMED when the music started!!!
Eu sinto o mesmo!!!!!!
Even after this, I for some reason still love Brody. Maybe it's the abs
Same XD
It's definitely the abs
honestly i think i just didn’t like him with rachel but this performance WOW
OMG you're so basic 😂
The honesty in this comment killed me 😭😭😂
I don't hate Brody I just didn't like him with Rachel but this performance was awesome
OMG, his face at the end... He doesn't want to do it, yet he needs to pay for school. And he's one of the best students in NYADA! This makes me sad for him.
I mean they made him an escort just because of how bad a fit Finn was for her... Finn cheated on everyone he has been with, but sureeee Brady is bad.
What do u mean Finn cheated on everyone? Who did he cheated Rachel with?
@@Juliana-vx6it he cheated on rachel with quinn
@@amiwhami he never cheated on rachel. He dumped rachel cause she cheated with puck when she found out he was with santana a year before. Thats what drove him to Quinn

I actually think Brody isn’t bad but he’s not that good either...
Why did they use the stairs after going to the elevator? Lmao
Dramatic effect
LMAO just realised that ahaha that is one big hotel
Glee logic
Because ✨presentation✨
Sometimes the elevator doors are in between the floors, so this might be the case or at least that's how I explained this scene to me :D
I only watched glee a couple years ago but have been a fan of Marina since The Family Jewels album, so when I heard this song I was SHOOK 😭💙
SAME

Okay. I didn't realize how dark and dirty glee was. Until just now.
The fact that they did not use Roxanne from Moulin Rouge for Brody's arc is a shame. I still love this performance though
I absolutely love Brody just not with Rachel. They could’ve stayed friends
Ooo
I disagree I thought they made a lot of sense.
same
I saw it on my tv and really couldn’t believe they were singing a Marina And The Diamonds song- I was screaming and singing the lyrics😭😭
go brody go! i loved this character a lot, it's such a shame people hated on him so hard that the actor had to delete his twitter (?) account for some time. he's a great singer, not a bad guy. the writers wanted us to see him that way as it seems, tho.
Same with grant gustin, he got a lot of hate after playing Sebastian. Glee fandom pretty toxic imo
they hated the fact that he had no onlyf ans XD
@@Blackcanvasart How could anyone hate on him playing Sebastian?! Literally my fave character on the entire show, with Kurt being second to him. But genuinely how?! I hate the fact that people hate on the actors, if they dislike the character fine but they don’t need to hate on the actors for it too!
what ??!! for real ??!! i didn't know bout this
this performance proves to me that i should probably rewatch the later seasons of glee
There is absolutely nothing wrong with sex work, but if you are going to be in a relationship with someone, it requires honesty. Brody should have told Rachel the truth. He lied to her on multiple occasions. THAT is what makes him horrible, not how he earns his money
Body ,and Rachel were amazing with this song their voice compliment each other so well.
1:36 I love Rachel's part so much!! I kept repeating it 😍😍
The choreography for this scene is SO GOOD
Fact: Brody is over hated.
I keep rewatching this scene and I absolutely love it, my favourite glee act
How To Be Heartbreaker by Mariana The Diamonds
actually her names marina
@@spfwithpeter_ Shakira or Catherine Zeta?
@@spfwithpeter_ Dude, yes, but she was calling herself Marina And The Diamonds when this song was released.
I actually loved Brody, idk why all the hate
Man, Brody is so bad! But I did love finding out why he acted so weird.

The STDs angle isn't fair- Brody's probably likelier to wear protection than Rachel given his line of work. It was just the lie that was wrong.
This is one of my all time favorite songs
Literally one of the best glee numbers ever.
This number would be fitting for actual Musical. It captures that star crossed lovers topic, the despair of poverty, sex working, etc .
Say what you will this song was one of the most elite songs and scenes that glee ever did change my mind
Glee had many numbers and covers I loved. While there are a few songs I like more than this one, this is probably my favorite dance number of the show. Considering there’s barely a trace of the main characters here except for Rachel’s beautiful solo [I’ve always hated her character but I have to admit she killed it here], that’s saying something.

And yeah, while this isn’t ideal, I really don’t see why they had to off Brody. Sam was doing stg similar (not the same, but close), and no one villainized him....
I 💕 the video…..so songs amazing
I loved brody, he actually really cared about Rachel...
Give downtown LA’s Biltmore Hotel some credit for this vivid tango. Great location, and great use of it.
He is such a great singer. Love him.
only glee could describe his sex work with a very artistic way
This cover and video are addictive. So good
I never noticed before but they went up to the 18th floor on the elevator just to go back down the stairs 😂
Never been into Glee but I was pleasantly surprised to find a MARINA song in the show
Marina And The Diamonds.
@@rsvihla No, just MARINA
@@POSHWigs No, then she was Marina And The Diamonds. And she's still Marina And The Diamonds to me.
This video and cover has single handedly made me watch Glee
the problem here isn't that he did sex work, it was that he lied about it to rachel. that wasn't fair to either of them. love the performance tho
This is the best song in glee
I don't like the performance of the song, but I love the fact that one of the Marina's songs was on glee
This show had some lit songs
First time I saw this episode I literally did not get what was going on, and looking back now... jesus
I can’t believe they did a Marina And The Diamonds song on Glee.
I don't like Brody but this performance is awesome though
I have watched this and this sence is my favorite
2:51 Is Rachel holding a pregnancy test or am I just seeing things?
THE BFF SHOW! Well she thought she was pregnant in one episode so it could be
No she was just playing with/ biting her nails
I hate brody but i love this
Same. I feel like he was just a jerk to Kurt, and shouldn’t have slept with Cassie. (I know the relationship was open, but still.) he also should’ve told Rachel about this.
I love this song
Feuds!!! My favorite episode!

Eyyy any Diamonds here??
Yes we can agree that maybe Rachel and Brody weren’t the best couple. But we gotta admit that there voices together are so good, this song, creep, and give your heart a break.
Remember when we all think he was a drug dealer
i don’t like brody but this was literally incredible
WOW
Mind blown 🤯
I just wanna know what type of skirt the pretty lady was wearing. The lady who was dancing with Brody. :(
Goosebumps
Am I the only knew Brody from a show called “Terra Nova”? I actually watched that show first, so I’m like, “hey, it’s that dude from Terra Nova!” U should watch the show. It’s good
Yeah it’s the same place I discovered him.
So they took the elevator up to then get off the elevator and go back down using the stairs...
Okay...sure...
I screamed so loud coz the hotel brody is at is the same hotel that sam and Colby haunted video is ❤❤❤
Marina+ Glee= perfection
I really feel bad for Brody, he star to work as a sex worker and he seems pretty uncomfortable when is with the lady but he didn't see another choice.
I would understand why Rachel got angry with Brody if her anger where because he didn't trust enough in Rachel to tell her, in any case Rachel was looking for a excuse to done with Brody.
what's is even more terrible is that i don't think Rachel ever knew that Brody was an escort, i don't think Santana told her
Hold up chordover street I did not know he was in this!?
I prefer marina 💎
❤ so glad to have so much talent in one song
My only question: Why did they go up on the elevator, then take the stairs to go down one floor?
No idez
He made out with like a 52 year old women 0-0 🤣
OK. Because you are going to stay young forever, and when you get older you are going to lose all interest in sex, right? You sound young and dumb.
YES. Wait, what? No, eww Brody.
Catchy though.
Is this an escort thing or wtf
Yes
I know I was also. Confused.
This scene should be a movie!!!
Love this performance but like Brody you couldn't get a real job
Pays better than most “real jobs” and better hours too
college is expensive though
It is a real job in many countries.
It is a real job. You offer a service in exchange for money. That’s what a job is.
💕 Brody
A MARINA SONG WAS ON GLEE?!?! When I was listening to HTBAHB it didn’t even sound familiar yet I’ve heard it before on here?😭
That was my favorite season. The last that i liked 😢
Is the lady eaddy mays from teen wolf and that sandra bullock movie ?
Anthony from dance moms 😳
Unpopular opinion: This version is better than the original cover
i've seen him act somewhere else, as a soldier, and i was surprised that he sings!!!
THE COVER 💀🤚
The thing with Brody is, i don't think he is a bad person. He was an escort which is okay, it was his choice to go to NYADA which is an extremely prestigeous school and most likely very expensive, he most likely also has chosen the fastest way to get a lots of money. He might have been even fine with it before he met Rachel, but that was when the guilt started to come in. His mistake was ultimately to hide it from Rachel, yea she might have not dated him but it only would've been fair. No matter if you see it as cheating or not, its still toxic for a relationship to hide a job like that.
What season is it and what episode is it
i think i blacked this out tbh
Sometimes I forget this happened....
I loved Brody's character
Rachel+brody more vocal chemistry than Rachel and finn
Not really.
this storyline is actually so sad
What episode is this
Sweet
Not gonna lie, I thought this video was hot.
I like Rachel’s voice in here and Pretending, everything else it sounds like she’s trying too hard. These two songs, she sounds natural.
