Glee's Alex Newell Reacts to Lea Michele Allegations: 'Get Her'
Alex Newell is backing up his friend Samantha Ware‘s allegations against their former Glee co-star Lea Michele.
Samantha took to Twitter on Monday (June 1) and claimed that Lea made her experience on the show a “living hell.”
Alex shared a “get her” GIF in response to the tweet and shared many other GIFs in response to the allegations as well.
One fan asked why Alex took a photo with Lea when she saw him perform in Once on This Island on Broadway in January 2018 and why he returned to the show in season six. He replied, “She was there I was being polite!! Like I was with anyone that came to see my show! Also I know youre not talking about the season I wasn’t in… until I had to ask to come back so I could pay my bills… since I was released mid season five… while being a series regular!”
In response to someone saying “Naya [Rivera] tried to warn us,” Alex tweeted out a GIF of Beyonce sipping her tea. (Read more about Naya‘s feud with Lea right here)
