Lea Michele was a guest on Therapuss, and she talked to Jake Shane about Glee, Funny Girl, and her upcoming tour.
At one point, their conversation took a turn. The actress revealed that she was on the debate team in high school, and she wrote arguments to plead her case. So, the rumors about her not being able to read really upset her.
Because she can read, and proved it by taking Shane’s notes and reading them.
So while she showed us that she can indeed read, she did not help her case when it comes to being a bitch.
Because as she was talking to him, she came off as so unlikable, I found myself liking her even less than I already did. And I don’t like her.
For example, she explained to the host why she finds that rumor so upsetting. “I fucking get so frustrated by it because I’m one of the only women in my whole family to get accepted to college,” she said to him. “You know my mother and my mother’s whole family was extremely poor from the Bronx, not very well educated. And my parents moved me from the Bronx to New Jersey to get a good education and to thrive. And I did. And my parents and my family are so proud of that, and it really was so important.”
I am from The Bronx, and I could go all Bronx on her. But why? She might be able to read. But she is not smart enough to realize that she should try to clean up her bitchy image. Because if a Funny Girl movie is made with her as Fanny Brice, the awards show will ignore her like she is Rachel Zegler, Jeremy Renner, or Jennifer Lopez. Being likable helps. Glee was a long, long time ago, and we have moved on from her.
