[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love that Jane Lynch, who's in Funny Girl, went "Wait, Lea's coming? Hell no!" and noped the heck on out of there. [/quote]

Ha, this. She was careful to be diplomatic about it of course. I wouldn't pay one red cent to see anything Lea Michelle is in.[/quote]

I saw her in “Spring Awakening.” I honestly don’t care about offstage antics. Short of actually abusing other people, I don’t care what actors do. Do you know if your accountant is nice to his coworkers? Is your doctor nice to the nursing staff, do you even know? A job is a job and Lea onstage is magic. She has a phenomenal voice. [/quote]

The "issue" with Lea Michele is that she was not an equal opportunity diva. She seemed to pointedly target her ire toward black and Hispanic cast mates and crew staff.[/quote]

I never heard that. I’ll do some Googling. That does sound bad, I guess I didn’t see those stories. [b]Overall though I don’t think there is anything scandalous with an actress who can’t sing well getting fired from a Broadway musical.[/b] It sounds like it could have been handled better, but at the end of the day, no one wants to pay premium prices and finally get back to Broadway theaters only to have the lead be weak.

I absolutely agree. Nothing wrong with canning Feldstein, especially if she can't handle the role.

This is a decent primer on what happened with Lea Michele. It all blew up during the BLM protests in June 2020: https://www.thedailybeast.com/lea-michele-threatened-to-shit-in-my-wig-says-glee-alum-samantha-marie-ware[/quote]
