'Glee' beauty Jayma Mays has revealed that it wasn't her decision to leave the show's cast and she's now wondering how she will be written out of the well-loved U.S. musical drama. 

Speaking to Metro newspaper about her impending departure from the programme, red-headed Mays explained that she has been cut from playing guidance counselor Emma Pillsbury and is sad to be leaving:

"It wasn't my choice. The creators decided to do it. We knew it was coming last year. Some other characters will also be leaving this season. It's very sad to be going, but I understand why they do it. It's about getting new blood into the show. I really enjoyed playing Emma. I don't know how I'm written out yet. I'm so curious."

She also spoke briefly about filming the recent tribute episode for the late Cory Monteith, who played Finn Hudson, and added: "It's been really hard. We just filmed his memorial episode and it was a very difficult thing to do. Just being there, you felt the absence of a friend and co-worker. It's been a very sad and difficult year for everyone."

'Glee' creator Ryan Murphy has also confirmed that the series will end after season 6: "I always knew that, I always knew how it would end. I knew what the last shot was - he was in it. I knew what the last line was - she said it to him. So when a tragedy like that happens, you sort of have to pause and figure out what you want to do, so we're figuring that out now."
