Lea Michele Listens to Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘Deja Vu’ After Drama With Former ‘Glee’ Costars

Dreaming of McKinley High? Lea Michele gave a subtle nod to her Glee roots nearly one year after allegations about her past behavior on the set made headlines.

The actress, 34, posted an Instagram Story on Tuesday, June 15, of herself listening to “Deja Vu” by Olivia Rodrigo with a specific set of lyrics highlighted in moving text. “Watching reruns of Glee / Being annoying / Singing in harmony,” the lyrics read.

In June 2020, the Emmy nominee faced backlash when former costar Samantha Marie Ware claimed that Michele created a toxic work environment on the Fox series, which came to an end in 2015. More Glee alums — including Heather Morris, Amber Riley, Alex Newell and Melissa Benoist — also acknowledged the Broadway star’s on-set antics.

At the time, Michele was pregnant with her first child, son Ever, and addressed the controversy in a lengthy Instagram statement. “Whether it was my privileged position and perspective that caused me to be perceived as insensitive or inappropriate at times or whether it was just my immaturity and me just being unnecessarily difficult, I apologize for my behavior and for any pain which I have caused,” she wrote. “We all can grow and change and I have definitely used these past several months to reflect on my own shortcomings. … I listened to these criticisms and I am learning and while I am very sorry, I will be better in the future from this experience.”

Morris, also 34, was one of many former colleagues to open up about Michele being “unpleasant to work with” amid the drama last summer. She doubled down on her statements during an appearance on the “Everything Iconic With Danny Pellegrino” podcast in May.

“I remember getting so much shade and people were like, ‘Why don’t you go out and say it?’ And I’m like, ‘Guys, she’s pregnant and all this stuff is going around,’” the dancer recalled. “And it’s true, I don’t know if maybe we were victims of bullying, and it’s a very victim thing to do to blame yourself, which is what people were saying, but … the only person who was honest about it was Naya [Rivera].” – Source
