Glee Fans LOVED How Alex Newell Gave Lea Michele The Cold Shoulder At The Tony Awards!
perezhilton.comFans think the Glee gods just served a lil’ justice in the BEST way possible! If you tuned into the 76th Tony Awards Sunday night, you surely saw some familiar faces, and maybe even celebrated as your favorite performers took home prizes.

Alex, who is non-binary, was nominated for their role in Broadway’s original musical, Shucked, while Lea, who took over the role of Fanny Brice in Broadway’s Funny Girl, was not eligible for nomination because she did not originate the role.
