Lea Michele Choked And Vomited While Performing 'Let It Go' On 'Glee' Season Six Premiere
"Glee" star Lea Michele said she had a hard time delivering her rendition of the popular “Frozen” song, “Let It Go” for the show. The actress claimed that her performance ended in tears when she choked on the fake snow at the set.
On a Jimmy Kimmel Live interview last week, Lea shared the difficulty she had on delivering the song “Let It Go” on “Glee.” The actress claimed that she choked on fake snow and vomited while performing her solo for the premiere episode of the hit TV series’ season 6. Lea explained that to imitate the original performance, she looked up when fake snow was being used as prop. Her plan backfired on her because the snow landed in her mouth and she choked. The actress shared that the whole incident was caught on film, even in “slow motion.”
Lea is not blaming the fake snow for everything though. She also admitted that she was already "super nervous" about rendering the piece right from the start. The actress said that the day however did not end badly for her. When she got over her upset stomach, Lea meet the kids of the crew members.
Even after this unfortunate mishap, Lea said that she knew she is being supported on this performance. Idina Menzel, who originally sang the piece, and coincidentally plays the mom of Lea’s Rachel Berry character on Glee, had faith that Lea could deliver a stellar performance. The actress said she even received Idina’s blessing through Twitter.
In another news, Lea is reportedly getting prepared to marry her current beau Matthew Paetz , although not until her hit show “Glee” is over. Hollywood Life reports that Lea is not yet engaged, but Matthew would be proposing to her soon. Lea just wants the show to be over first because getting engaged while the show is still on would be “insulting” to her ex-boyfriend and co-star Cory Monteith’s memory, the website added. Cory passed away in July 2013, at the height of the show’s popularity.
