They should be banned on this board for at least two years and anyone who uses them should have their account revoked.

Then it's a good thing I didn't start a thread about the quote I saw on Broadway.com where she said she wanted to play Evita and Mrs. Lovett (with Chris Colfer as Sweeney Todd, no less).
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain. -Kad

but if you hate them so much then why even bring them up at all, all you're going to do is create a stupid argument.

Ugh, she's in a commercial for HP's version of the iPad. In it, she sings "Let Me Entertain You" while the HP does its thing.

Well, I work in finance, so CNBC is on at work. This commercial has been on 4 times per day for at least 2 weeks. And, since I am a Sondheimite, faintly hearing a Styne/Sondheim (edited, I'm an idiot) song catches my ear no matter how hard I try to block it out. I've now heard this ad 40 times in the last 2 weeks, and with each listening my frustration with her overexposure grows.

And to think of the crush I had on her in the Spring Awakening days...

"it is funny that you are sick of those words but feel the need to use them anyway."

it is not that funny.

If we start talking Michele Lee, it will just devolve into a discussion about how Lea Michele is THE ONLY PERSON who can play Gittel in a revival of Seesaw.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

I don't know why anyone would want to talk about Lea Michele. i hate Lea as well but i don't care about her enough to make a pointless board, when there are already hundreds of posts saying the same thing.

I love how everyone hates her. It's just so hilarious that none of you have probably ever met her. I've never either and would never make any accusations about ANY actor I've never met. She is a very talented lady that is a hell of a lot more successful than all of you combined.

theatrefreak, I don't hate her. I don't think most people do. But some of the posts asserting that she was the only reason to do the revival, and that "Lea = Streisand" are a little hard to take.

Because you have to be jealous of someone you dislike, you can't just dislike them because you dislike them.

In that case I'm very jealous of Chris Christie and his hot bod.

I've met her in social situations before. Contrary to what others have said, I found her very pleasant. I've seen her perform. I think she has talent. I'll freely admit that I watch GLEE.

I don't hate her. I hate the mythos that her diehard fans have constructed around her. I find it hilarious and kind of terrifying.

That said, at this stage in her career, I wouldn't want to see her as Fanny Brice at all. To paraphrase McNally's Maria Callas: She should work on something more appropriate to her limitations.

I dunno, suttonfoster. I'm pretty successful. I'm guessing there's a bunch of successful people here. That said, I do think it's pretty pointless and counterproductive to start a thread about Lea Michele only to say we shouldn't mention Lea Michele.

Oh, I've a few adjectives for Jordan, but that's another thread. "Tronic" sounds like something you'd smoke, or maybe a fan of the cult classic Tron, a la ""Fanadus".

Maybe he's an "anti-Lea-ite".

Hmm, doesn't scan very well, does it?
