Chris Colfer WON'T Be Watching Lea Michele's Funny Girl | E! News

Chris really kept it REAL with that response. 👀

I mean, they all have all the reasons in the world to hate her.
But she is also talented AF and she is killing it in the role.

Two things can be truth at the same time…

I guess maybe because I’m older than most people on social media, it’s amazing to me that people don’t ever consider the possibility that someone can grow or change with time. It even seems kind of vicious sometimes these comments because of all of the glee cast members, she lost someone that she really loved during its airing, and it just seems to be completely disregarded as a minimal loss. And truthfully, this is been over a decade ago. She is a grown married woman with children. She’s no longer a teenager, and I am sure that Chris Colfer has also grown and changed as he has gotten older. How long should one person pay for the sins of their past? Would any of us want to pay forever? The thing is none of us on our worst day would want everyone in the world to see us. As Jesus said, let he who is without sin, cast the first stone, I have sinned in my life and I’m not gonna throw stones at anyone and I just hope everyone finds a little bit more forgiveness and empathy in their heart.

She asked him about it. It’s not like he’s going out of his way to discuss it.

I saw Lea Michele on Funny Girl, don’t get me wrong she’s talented but I don’t know if there will EVER be any making up for her behavior in Hollywood

[hannahlynn]

I'm not defending her actions, but Lea is really doing well in the role.

[PTRAINBOY]

She was called out .. Old news ... You don't have to like her but she's talented. You don't have to be her best friend to go to the performance

[giusi]

honestly i think they all need to grow up

[sydmaker]

We all have coworkers we don't like

[Edgar_Vira]

I don't get it. I thought they were good friends back then.

[snowvaleri]

I can't understand all this hate about him. Maybe it's just my way of view, but Chris has never told any bad word about Lea while they were working together and now. Everybody knows that she is a hard person to work with so he must have bad memories about some of those times. I don't think Lea is a racist, just a really hard person, so it's normal if you don't want to see that person often. Yes, maybe his words about being triggered are extra, but that words are the worst that he told about her. Maybe it's rude, but there's nothing really serious and terrifying.

So now we know Chris doesn't like Lea.... who cares ? Glee was hundreds of years ago anyway... But now we also know that Chris has NO class whatsoever.

[hervev.]

A bunch of bad singers who are so jealous.

[Pendre]

Good! She doesn't need his negativity. Whoopi Goldberg, Olivia Rodrigo, Becca Tobin, Darren Criss, John Stamos, Jon Groff and Ryan Murphy have all gone and had a wonderful time. He can stay home and write another book.

[Caprizonica]

Why do they have to ask the cast if they are going to see her but the media hasn't asked her yet about her cancellation. Weird.

[dnahubs]

Looks like someone's envious and bitter.

[Makeji]

So what? Who gives a hoot. Time to grow up and move on.

[nicholasgarrick]

This is why I stan a shady queen. Honestly is the best policy, and Chris is giving us Honestly. It seem theatre fans forgot about all the stories of lea's racist, and cruel behavior. Chris is just giving yall a friendly reminder.

[akastardust]

Chris Colfer trying to get a mention anywhere at this point, he just sounds petty and desperate per usual.

[camillefraginal]

Looks like someone needs a publicity for his "Land of Stories" book 😏
