It took them awhile, but TMZ finally realized that Broadway stars Lea Michele and Idina Menzel look alike.

Posted: 9/15/09 at 12:38amIt's true. They both are pretty, but they're faces are sort of harsh.

Posted: 9/15/09 at 12:54amI don't think they look much alike at all. Idina looks more like Nelly Furtado. And Nelly Furtado doesn't much look like Lea Michele.

Posted: 9/15/09 at 1:19amLea looks like a female version of Idina :).
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

Posted: 9/15/09 at 1:20amLea looks and sounds *far* more like Jackie Burns from the Hair cast.

Posted: 9/15/09 at 10:47amI don't think it's uncanny or anything, but I've seen shots where they did look alike. The ones they chose do not illustrate the point well.

LOL, my brain skipped over the 'Michele's in the first and fourth posts and I thought we were talking about Salonga.
So I was thoroughly confused as to what you guys were on about until I saw the article.

Posted: 9/15/09 at 11:21amI think in certain photos they look similar. But, I honestly did not notice this myself until I watched Glee. It's probably because I don't know Lea Michele as well.

Posted: 9/15/09 at 11:39amBurns from HAIR does look like the two of them combined. And I have a feeling she can sing better than the both of them combined. That chica hits some high notes!

Posted: 9/15/09 at 12:51pmIt's probably not that it took them a while, but that they had no idea who she was before Glee began airing.
