Samantha Marie Ware claimed Lea Michele made her life a 'living hell' on Glee.

Michele issued a lengthy statement on social media in which she apologized to those she hurt and promised to "be better in the future."

"One of the most important lessons of the last few weeks is that we need to take the time to listen and learn about other people's perspectives and any role we have played or anything we can do to help address the injustices that they face," she said. Michele initially tweeted a show of support for the George Floyd protesters on Monday in stating Floyd "did not deserve this. This was not an isolated incident and it must end." This prompted Ware to reply, "LMAO REMEMBER WHEN YOU MADE MY FIRST TELEVISON [sic] GIG A LIVING HELL?!?! CAUSE ILL NEVER FORGET.

"When I tweeted the other day, it was meant to be a show of support for our friends and neighbors and communities of color during this really difficult time, but the responses I received to what I posted have made me also focus specifically on how my own behavior towards fellow cast members was perceived by them," Michele continued in her statement.

HYPOCRITE!

MBevidy

I’m sure there’s a lot of talented up-and-comers who can replace her in future roles/work.

THE BISH WAITED TILL NOW TO SAY SOMETHING.... YEAH RIGHT. THE WORST WAGON JUMPER IN HISTORY.

cunt

Nah she lying

Who releases/posts an “apology” at 3am? This is not an apology. This is a: just say something... so I can go back to posting about my overpriced “free” beauty items and “self care” days.

I would have preferred, “I’m sorry I was an asshole.” This is too, “I’m sorry you felt that way.”

No she didn’t, her publicist or lawyer did.

Apologizes after she was called out. Typical

No. No she did not apologize. She apologizes that the victim perceived her actions to be wrong. She “doesn’t even remember” the incident. Which means it meant nothing to her and she is only “apologizing” because it’s what’s “best” for her career. She’s an awful human.

Of course she pulled the “I don’t recall” card. That’s not an apology.

Look I’m glad someone still uses a pr team to deflect their wrong doings. Someone has to keep em in business

so y'all ganging up on a pregnant woman...

A very Nasty Little Girl.

She’s losing endorsements and jobs, that’s why she’s apologizing

Never liked her. I always felt that she was super fake and mean.

It was 6 years ago! If you are human, chances are if someone or something was inconsequential to your existence, would you remember what exactly you said? I sure as shit don’t! I feel like this was an opportunity taken, at the expense of another. Today, 2020, more love is needed

Either you apologize or not then be forgiven by those whom you’ve done wrong & every1 can move on. She’s not owning anything. She’s not sorry 4 hurting them. Bye Felicia! I was right for not liking her from the get go! Just something abt her irked me LeaMichele

Better to say nothing than to issue an insincere apology like this.

That was the most backhanded apology I’ve ever read. She only put out a statement because Hello Fresh dumped her.

Perceived? Oh bitch please! You knew exactly what you were doing! Now that you've lost an endorsement you're sorry. Guess what Lea? I don't think you're gonna work again in Hollywood. Enjoy your new job at Costco.

It shouldn’t take people publicly calling you out for you to “try to be better”

Oh please an actual human being would know right off the bat that saying that was WRONG. And cause she got blasted NOW she apologizes and how long ago did GLEE end. Walk on girl just walk on

that ain't an apology. try again.

I wonder what Ryan Murphy’s opinion on this is

Ware got what she wanted - to be relevant again & an apology. The end.

That’s not an apology. She got called out & lost a sponsorship & now she’s trying to stop the damage. byefelicia

So sad she takes no responsibility for her actions. She is done

What she meant to say is “I will be Great Again”

A little late, no?

Such bull apology not accepted ma'am

She’s not apologizing. She’s clearly deflecting. And of course she pulled the “I don’t recall this ever happening” card.

I would make SO MUCH MONEY teaching celebrities how to actually apologize! The use of “perceived” is pissing me off! THATS👏🏾NOT👏🏾AN👏🏾APOLOGY!!!! Ugh. I’m done with this. Bless her heart.

This is one level up from I was a dickhead to everyone because I was tired, if you can't remember, how many ppl were you rude to and how often....

Total non apology. 'I say I don't judge based on skin even though I did so I don't think I'm racist but sorry if they thought I was kinda mean even if I didn't think so. I promise I'll hide my entitlement and privilege better so no more money leaves me, k?' -LeaMichele

It was never a secret that Lea Michele was a complete diva on the set of Glee but I don’t see the point of bringing it up again so many years later.

Hopefully she is blacklisted from the entertainment industry.

the deflection and memory loss is staggering

No need to. It sounds all made up.

'Whether it was my privileged position and perspective that caused me to be perceived as insensitive or inappropriate at times' TO BE PERCEIVED

Glee ended over 5 years ago!
