Lol.....what goes around comes around! And WHAT.....I stumbled across the whole: Lea Michelle is illiterate conspiracy - where the hell was I when this hit?
I stand with Jordan, so many people here didn't want to hear what he or I (and several others) had to say about her years ago. No need to re-hash - but this has given me a bright spot!
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

RAGTIME?! Wasn’t she 11?! "
She gets what she deserves for treating people badly as an adult but as a child at age 11, I will give her some slack. I would be more inclined to bash her Mom if she acted badly in "Ragtime" at that age.

According to a close friend of Cory, Lea banned his Canadian friends and family from going to the Los Angeles funeral. Which is a special kind of disgusting.
If Lea was like this as an 11-year old, my heart honestly breaks a little. Lea is clearly a result of spoiled, poor parenting. Her poor baby doesn't stand a chance.
Don’t fall into that trap of feeling bad and excusing her behavior. She is a grown ass woman who knows how to and how not to treat people. She’s best friends with one of the kindest souls ever put on this planet and has been for YEARS. In addition she spent those childhood years surrounded by people like Marin, Stokes, Audra and some of the most generous and kind people in the business, so it’s not like she’s never had any positive influences around her. She has actively chosen to be this person and deserves zero sympathy.
Jordan - I will excuse the behavior at age 11, she was a child. I will blame her Mom who I would think had to accompany her while she was in "Ragtime". As an adult, she is responsible for her actions. Cory fell in love with her and Jonathan Groff like you said has been a good friend for years. I believe Darren Criss did a tour with her a couple of years ago and she attended his wedding. She seems to get along with Matthew Morrison and has performed with him several times. It appears most of the negativity (Glee) is from black women. Is she racist? I have no idea, I don't know her and have never heard of these issues before the recent tweet. You and "dramamama" know her so you know better than the rest of us. From the outside, it just seems hard to think she is a total b**** if the people mentioned above seem to like her.

It's perfectly common for bullies to be selectively nice to the "right" people. Based on these tweets, Lea has a history of creating an "in crowd" and an "out crowd", which is not an uncommon tactic. In the narcissistic abuse community, people refer to the narcissist as superficially charming, with a retinue of "enablers." I'm not saying that's what's going on here with the aforementioned actors, but people are definitely capable of being selectively friendly and those around them often are oblivious or make excuses/exceptions for their behavior.
I started hearing firsthand accounts of her behavior in 2009. This is... such common knowledge in the industry. It’s not even an open secret. I have been seeing nothing but support for these Glee actors speaking out.
"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."
Keke Palmer has unfollowed Lea Michele on Instagram and Abigail Breslin liked two of the tweets calling her out. Both Palmer and Breslin were Michele’s cast mates on SCREAM QUEENS.
