LOS ANGELES - Actress Lea Michele took to Instagram on Wednesday to apologise to fans and fellow cast members of Glee after her co-star, African American actress Samantha Ware, 28, spoke out about Michele's treatment on the set of the hit musical television show.The movement was in response to the death of George Floyd, an African American man who was killed in Minneapolis after police officer Derek Chauvin used his knee to pin him to the ground while conducting an arrest.

Responding, Ware - who appeared on Glee as recurring character Jane Hayward in the sixth season - alleged that Michele had committed racial microaggressions against her and made her experience on the set of the TV series"a living hell" which she would never forget.The Glee role was one of Ware's first experiences in Hollywood, before the actress went on to star in shows including What/If on Netflix.

Responding to the accusations, Michele posted a note on Instagram on Wednesday and said:"one of the most important lessons in the last few weeks is that we need to take the time to listen and learn about other people's perspectives.
