Lea Michele Just Hilariously Trolled Conspiracy Theorists Who Claim She Can't Read With Viral TikTok

The 'Glee' star has continued to respond with humor to shut down the accusations that she's illiterate.

Conspiracy theories can vary between ones that are believable to ones that are completely insane. But the best part about conspiracy theories is how other people react to them.

Glee star Lea Michele has a bizarre conspiracy theory circling the internet that she can't read.


In an interview she talked about how sad the theory is.

“I went to ‘Glee’ every single day; I knew my lines every single day, and then there’s a rumor online that I can’t read or write?"
"It’s sad. It really is."
"I think often if I were a man, a lot of this wouldn’t be the case.”

The theory itself is pretty ridiculous but her response to the claim is perfect.

In a viral TikTok video, Michele referenced that singer and actor Barbra Streisand is set to release a memoir later this year. The video has over 9,000 comments and has been viewed over three million times.

“265 days to learn to READ!!!.”

As usual, the comments are hilarious.

Although, it's not entirely clear if they are meant as jokes or if the comments are serious.

*Let's assume they are meant to be jokes*.

Either way, they are worth the laugh.

Most people were encouraging.

Again, let's assume these are jokes... please let these be jokes.

It's great to see Michele responding to such a strange theory with humor.

We wish her all the best with her reading journey and will be waiting with bated breath for Streisand's book.

Trump Roasted After Sharing Quote Praising Him For Winning 'His First Nobel Prize'—And Yeah, Nope

President Donald Trump was widely mocked after he published a Truth Social post in which he quoted Energy Secretary Chris Wright, who claimed this year's Nobel Prize in physics is by an extension a win for the Trump administration.

The Nobel Foundation awarded this year's physics prize to John Clarke (UC Berkeley), Michel H. Devoret (Yale and UC Santa Barbara), and John M. Martinis (UC Santa Barbara and Qolab) for “the discovery of macroscopic quantum mechanical tunneling and energy quantization in an electric circuit."

CEO predicts society accepts robot death

In 2009, Waymo introduced its first fleet of driverless cars, sleek pods equipped with sensors, AI, and a “Sense, Solve, Go” system designed to navigate roads autonomously without human input. According to the company, its robotaxis now experience 91 percent fewer crashes and 91 percent fewer serious injuries than human drivers over the same distances.

But even as Waymo brags about its spotless stats, co-CEO Tekedra Mawakana is already bracing for the inevitable: the first fatality caused by one of its cars, and she thinks society will accept it.

Prince Harry Had The Perfect Response When Asked If He Can Do An American Accent—And It Was Actually Pretty Good

Americans are fascinated by hearing people from other countries "drop" their accents and emulate an American one.

For example, it's always interesting to see a British or Australian actor in a movie where they're portraying an American character, but while they might veil their natural accent, they sometimes emulate an American accent from a different part of the country than what would make sense for their character.
