Chris Colfer Threw Some Epic Shade After He Was Asked If He'd See Lea Michele In 'Funny Girl'

Glee may have been off the air for seven years now, but that clearly hasn't dulled the harrowing experience of working alongside Lea Michele on the show if recent comments by costar Chris Colfer are any indication.

During a recent appearance on TV and radio personality Michelle Collins' SiriusXM show The Michelle Collins Show, Colfer had little love for Michele when Collins brought up her name.


When Collins invited Colfer to join her for an upcoming Michele performance as Fanny Brice in Broadway's Funny Girl, Colfer didn't just decline—he went full-on scorched earth in the most deliciously shady way possible.

See his comments below.

Obviously ribbing the actor, Collins told Colfer, "By the way, Chrissy, guess what I'm doing tonight. You should come," to which Colfer instantly interjected, his voice dripping with the sound of rolling eyes:

"Oh no, are you seeing Funny Girl?"

When Collins confirmed she was, Colfer deadpanned.

"Oh... My day suddenly just got so full."

He then tried to change the subject by saying he had recently seen the Broadway musical Six, but Collins was undeterred.

When she reiterated her invitation to Funny Girl, Colfer quipped:

"No, I can be triggered at home."

On social media, people loved Colfer's shady takedown of his former costar.










Colfer is only the latest former colleague of Michele's to publicly drag the actor who has become infamous for being difficult to work with and even downright abusive on set.

Several of her Glee costars publicly called out Michele's abuse on set, most notably Samantha Ware, who accused Michele of being racist.

Glee stars Amber Riley and Alex Newell also spoke out about Michele's racist and abusive behavior, as have actors who have worked with Michele on other projects like Yvette Nicole Brown.

Sandra Lee, known as "Dr. Pimple Popper" on Lifetime, is well-known for her bedside manner, medical knowledge and ability to share her knowledge in an accessible way, and, of course, her unique approach to dermatological care.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Kid Rock Dragged After Offering Massive Discount To His MAGA Festival Due To Abysmal Ticket Sales

Musician Kid Rock has hitched his wagon to president Donald Trump for quite some time now, and it seems he too is in the "find out" stage of that particularly exercise in FAFO.

It seems that when the president you form your entire personality around craters to a catastrophic approval rating even for him, your ship starts to sink too.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
