Now more than ever, any celebrity who has a history of racism is getting put on blast.

Even one Rachel Berry—actress Lea Michele—from TV's Glee.

After Michele posted a tweet in support of #BlackLivesMatter:

Samantha Ware—a co-star on the show in season 6 of Ryan Muphy's hit show Glee—called Michele out for making her life "a living hell" while she was on set.

Other stars quickly came to Ware's side to corroborate her story.

Even RuPaul's Drag Race star Willam Belli said Lea Michele was hard to work with.

Willam said Michele's behavior drove them off the set of Glee.

Several people had already mentally cancelled Lea Michele.

Former costar Alex Newell was among them.








Michele gained national attention in the mid-2000s after her role as Wendla in Spring Awakening on Broadway.





People's tolerance is low right now for false allies and people using the current national sentiment to get personal attention.

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.

Democratic Senate Candidate Blasts Trump Administration With Reality Check Over Their Withholding Of SNAP Funding

If you ask pretty much any conservative, they will tell you that the government shutdown and all its blowback is entirely the Democrats' fault.

This includes the cancellation of SNAP benefits, or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program previously known as "food stamps," beginning in November, which will cut off access to food to millions of people.

J.D. Vance Faces Backlash After Saying He Hopes His Wife Usha Will Be 'Moved' To Convert To Christianity

Vice President JD Vance was criticized after he said during a Turning Point USA event that he hopes his wife, Second Lady Usha Vance, who is the daughter of Telugu-speaking Indian Hindu immigrants who hail from Andhra Pradesh, will convert to Christianity someday and "see things the same way" that he does.

A woman in the audience had the opportunity to ask Vance how he squares having a Hindu wife and mixed-race children with his anti-immigration rhetoric, a nod to the Trump administration's ongoing immigration crackdown that is tearing families across the country apart.
