flyaway 15,350 Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Following last week's announcement that Beanie Feldman had been cast as leading lady Fanny Brice in the upcoming Broadway revival of Funny Girl, numerous celebrities reached out to congratulate the Booksmart star on securing the role — including Lea Michele. Shortly after the news broke, Feldman posted about her excitement on Instagram sharing a photo of the New York Times announcement and captioning it with, "I went to my third birthday party dressed as Fanny Brice so sometimes dreams actually come true." The Glee alum added her show of support to the many congratulations comments, which included well wishes from stage and screen stars such as Billie Lourd, Busy Philipps, D'Arcy Carden, Audra McDonald, and Abbi Jacobson. "Yes! YOU are the greatest star!" she wrote in a comment. "This is going to be epic!!" It's no secret to anyone who has followed Michele's career that the role of Fanny Brice has been closely associated with the actress ever since Glee made the musical a specific part of her character, Rachel Berry. (She sang "Don't Rain on My Parade" in the first season and after graduating, went on to star in the Broadway revival.) Glee showrunner Ryan Murphy had even acquired the rights for a potential revival that many assumed would have Michele in the lead role due to her involvement. https://ew.com/theater/lea-michele-endorses-beanie-feldstein-for-funny-girl-role-broadway/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JusKeepBreathin 19,311 Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 If Lea isn't the star it's because she did it to herself. She should have been a better person.
