Lea Michele Gushes Over 'Inspiration' Celine Dion: 'I Adore Her'

Lea Michele is spilling about one of her biggest inspirations – Céline Dion!

The 30-year-old singer and actress not only admires Céline‘s talent, but also the way she carried herself in the wake of her husband René Angélil‘s passing.

“I look at someone like Céline and how she has held herself with such dignity and respect,” she explained.

Lea added, “She just lost the love of her life, and she holds herself with such poise; and she’s taking care of her voice and trying to stay true to herself. I adore her.”

“And obviously Barbra Streisand – they’ve always been these role models for me growing up, and it made me work harder and take better care of myself to just be the best that I can be,” she concluded.
