Lea Michele Sarfati (/ˈlə mɪˈʃɛl/;[2] born August 29, 1986)[1] is an American actress, singer, and author. She began her career as a child actress on Broadway, appearing in productions of Les Misérables (1995–1996), Ragtime (1997–1999), Fiddler on the Roof (2004–2005), and Spring Awakening (2006–2008). Michele came to major prominence playing Rachel Berry on the Fox series Glee (2009–2015), for which she received an Emmy Award nomination, two Golden Globe nominations and won four People's Choice Awards, three Teen Choice Awards and a Satellite Award. Michele and the rest of the Glee cast earned a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series from four nominations and three Grammy Award nominations for music recorded for the series, also spawning multiple hits on the Billboard charts. Michele subsequently starred as Hester Ulrich on the Fox series Scream Queens (2015–2016) and as Valentina Barella on the ABC sitcom The Mayor (2017).

Michele made her feature film debut in New Year's Eve (2011), and was signed to Columbia Records in 2012. She released her debut single the following year, "Cannonball", followed by her debut studio album, Louder (2014), which debuted at number 4 on the Billboard 200 chart in the United States.[3] Three years later, she released her second studio album, Places (2017), which debuted at number 28 on the Billboard 200. In 2019, she released Christmas in the City, her third studio album. Michele has also published two books, Brunette Ambition (2014) and You First: Journal Your Way to Your Best Life (2015).

Early life and education

Lea Michele Sarfati was born in the Bronx, New York.[1] She is the only child of Edith Thomasina (née Porcelli), a retired nurse, and Mark David Sarfati, a real estate agent and former delicatessen owner.[4] Her mother is an Italian American with ancestors from Rome and Naples, while her father is a Sephardic Jew with ancestors from Thessaloniki, Greece.[note 1][5] Michele was raised in her mother's Catholic faith, and has stated that her father "gladly" attended church with them. She spent the first four years of her life living in the Bronx, until she and her parents moved to the more suburban area of Tenafly, New Jersey.[4] The family also rented an apartment in Manhattan, where they would live when Michele was performing on Broadway.[6] Michele was educated at Rockland Country Day School for elementary school in Congers, New York.[7]

Michele started using her middle name at an early age. When she went on her first audition, for the role of Young Cosette in Les Misérables, she gave her name as Lea Michele, and has used it professionally ever since. Michele stated that she intentionally left off her surname because she was teased about its pronunciation.[8] During the audition, she sang "Angel of Music" from The Phantom of the Opera – the only musical she knew at the time.[9] Michele went along to support a friend, but ended up landing the part herself.[10] In 1997, Michele was homeschooled while living and working in Toronto, where she performed in a production of Ragtime.[11] For her high school education, Michele attended Tenafly High School.[12] During her time there, she was on the volleyball team, the debate team, and participated in choir.[13] In her teens, when she was not working on the stage, Michele had a part-time job at a bat mitzvah dress shop.[14] She also worked at her father's deli.[15]

Michele refrained from auditioning for Broadway roles during her freshman, sophomore and junior years so she could focus on her education.[6] In the summers from 2000 to 2002, Michele attended Stagedoor Manor in the Catskills, a center for performing arts training.[16] At Stagedoor, she was part of the touring troupe Our Time Cabaret, and performed in productions of Side by Side by Sondheim and The Who's Tommy.[17] In her final summer at the camp, Michele was to perform in a production of Sweet Charity, but instead booked the role of Wendla Bergmann in a workshop of Spring Awakening, forcing her to drop out.[17] She was later accepted to New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, but opted instead to continue working professionally on the stage.[18] When Michele was 19 years old, her mother Edith was diagnosed with uterine cancer.[4] Edith received treatment from the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City.[19]

Artistry

Influences

One of the most significant influential figures in Michele's life is Barbra Streisand whom she cites as her "role model". Her mother Edith would play her films when she was a child.[4] Michele dedicated a chapter in her book Brunette Ambition to Streisand, noting that it is important for people to have someone to look up to. Michele wrote, "I really love her, she's always been such a role model to me. She's someone who has built her career on focusing on what makes her unique and what makes her special."[128] An actress who influenced Michele was Natalie Wood. Michele said that she would watch West Side Story as a child and want to play the role of Maria.[4]

Actress and singer Audra McDonald has also been an influence on Michele. She told The Fresno Bee, "Audra is probably the best singer in the world – up there with Barbra. I don't think she has any idea what an influence she had on me. I would say 80% of my singing knowledge came from Audra... How to warm up. How to breathe. How to take care of my voice. All of my beliefs are because Audra instilled them in me."[129] Recording artist Alanis Morissette has been an inspiration throughout Michele's career. Morissette's album Jagged Little Pill was the first album Michele purchased, and in a 2014 interview has said she still owns.[15] She said, "I love Alanis Morissette... All of her songs are lyrically so beautiful and vocally she's so strong."[130] Celine Dion has also influenced her as a singer.[131]

Voice

Michele possesses a soprano vocal range.[132] As of 2013, her voice reportedly spans 2.7 octaves and one semitone.[133] Michele's vocals have been repeatedly praised; however, Christopher Weingarten of Rolling Stone critiqued that Michele's voice is "a little too perfect" for pop music charts.[134] The Boston Globe stated that her voice is a "mighty soprano" and that Michele's vocals are most comfortable when she "straddles the line between Katy Perry and Celine Dion."[135] Hanh Nguyen wrote of Michele's voice on the Glee Live! In Concert! tour, "One can truly hear the quality of the live vocals, which in the case of Lea Michele is the real deal. She sounds even better than on the show... Her "Don't Rain On My Parade" live is an amazing and thrilling treat."[136] Billboard called her live performance of "Love Is Alive" on The Late Late Show with James Corden an "emotional performance [that] showcased Michele's strong vocal ability."[137]

Product endorsements

In 2007, along with her Spring Awakening co-stars, Michele was featured in a Gap Inc. marketing campaign. The campaign included magazine advertisement spreads and billboards in Times Square.[138] In 2010, Michele became a spokesmodel for beauty company Dove, performing the song "My Favorite Things" from The Sound of Music in television commercials for the brand.[139] The following year, she appeared in a Super Bowl commercial for Chevrolet, along with most of her Glee co-stars. She performed the song "See the USA in Your Chevrolet" as Rachel Berry.[140] Also in 2011, Michele became a spokesperson for a Nike workout application.[141] In September 2011, she appeared in commercials for the HP TouchPad.[142]

In January 2012, Candie's announced that Michele would be the spokesmodel for their brand, taking over from Vanessa Hudgens who was the face of the brand for the previous year.[143] In September 2012, it was revealed that Michele had signed an estimated $1 million deal to be a spokesperson for L'Oréal Paris. She has appeared in magazine spreads and television commercials promoting their products.[144] In September 2015, Pixelberry Studios announced their collaboration with Michele, launching High School Story with Lea Michele, a celebrity takeover update of their popular app.[145] In December 2018 Michele teamed with Old Navy and Lyft to announce free car sharing to stores for holidays.[146] In February 2019, Michele appeared in a commercial for ZOLA, a wedding planning website.[147]

Personal life

Michele began working with actor Cory Monteith in 2008, when they were cast as love interests on Glee.[148] In February 2012, the media reported that they had begun dating.[149] They remained together until his death in July 2013.[150]

On April 28, 2018, Michele announced her engagement to businessman Zandy Reich.[151] They were married on March 9, 2019, in Napa, California.[152] On May 2, 2020, Michele announced that she and Reich were expecting their first child.[153] Michele gave birth to a boy named Ever Leo on August 20, 2020.[154]

Controversy

In June 2020, actress Samantha Marie Ware, who worked with Michele in late 2014 during Ware's recurring role in the sixth season of Glee, accused Michele of being very rude to her on set, behaving with "traumatic microaggressions".[155] Ware made her comments in direct response to Michele having posted a message on social media saying "George Floyd did not deserve this. This was not an isolated incident and it must end. #BlackLives Matter".[155] Other actors who co-starred with Michele, Heather Morris, Alex Newell, Melissa Benoist, and Amber Riley, made statements in corroboration with, or liked Twitter posts confirming that Michele had displayed rudeness to others on set, but Riley and Morris verbally disagreed with the implication of Michele being racist.[156][157] Michele responded with an apology, noting that the comments from numerous cast members in response to Ware's accusation had made her aware that her general treatment of all cast members during those years was "insensitive or inappropriate", a sign of "immaturity", and that she was "unnecessarily difficult" towards others around her, and she would "keep working to better myself and take responsibility for my actions."[155] On June 2, 2020, HelloFresh announced they had ended their partnership with Michele.[158]
