Lea Michele Covers Glamour Magazine October 2010

Lea Michele covers Glamour. The Glee actress, seen on the Emmy Awards 2010 red carpet, and who recently lost a lot of weight, covers the October 2010 issue.

Michele talks to the women’s magazine about fame, confidence, and relationships. Basically, a bunch of fluff I don’t really care about. But, her pictures are pretty. She isn’t wearing pants on the cover. She’s doing the Britney Spears thing of wearing a long shirt and pulling it down over her special places. But, she’s adorable and she’s usually fully-clothed. So, meh, I’ll let that slide.

Lea always dreamed of stardom: “When I was a little kid, my mother and I used to watch the Golden Globes and I would dress up and she would get sparkling apple cider and we would make a tray of hors d’oeuvres and watch it together. And I would get up and make a pretend speech.”
She’s not lacking in the confidence department: “I feel beautiful no matter how I look. I have my family to thank for that.”
Her crazy-big voice is, well, a little crazy: “It feels like you’re jumping out of a plane. Terrifying but incredibly invigorating at the exact same time.”
Long-distance dating boyfriend Theo Stockman is fine by Lea: I’m a relationship girl. I would rather be long-distance with him than not have a relationship at all… He lets me be who I am.
She’s tight with Glee’s Amber Riley (Mercedes:) We’re both big personalities, and you definitely would think we’d bump heads. But she has taught me more about myself than anyone. She inspires me, she protects me, she makes me laugh, she tells me not to take myself so seriously. She’s my Mama Amber.
