Seeing another Glee star get a Tony nomination while Lea Michele has none (I know she wasn’t eligible) makes me so happy.

[anachan87]

Wasn’t she nominated for SA prior glee, tho?

(It was still funny to see Jenna actually winning one before her, and so it will be if Alex wins as well)

[deeohaytch]

No she was snubbed for SA which is hilarious when you hear the story about how her and JGroff went and prayed the night before in the documentary lmao

[silverstarry]

Nope, the only acting nominations from the original cast were for Groff and Gallagher! The nominees for lead actress in a musical that year were:

Christine Ebersole - Grey Gardens as 'Little Edie' Beale
Laura Bell Bundy - Legally Blonde as Elle Woods
Audra McDonald - 110 in the Shade as Lizzie Curry
Debra Monk - Curtains as Carmen Bernstein
Donna Murphy - LoveMusik as Lotte Lenya

I only knew she wasn't nominated after Jamie Lee Curtis threw this delicious shade @ her lol

[khays]

wait who in the list was on Glee?

[deeohaytch]

Alex Newell, they played Unique in seasons 3-5

[khays]

Omg that's awesome, they were incredible on Glee!!

[deeohaytch]

I saw Shucked on Sunday and they were a stand out. Got a standing O after their number in the first act and only partly because the seats in the Nederlander were so incredibly uncomfortable

[duchello]

yo for real. like yes I appreciate how steep they are because of the view but holy hell is that a tight fit

[deeohaytch]

Yeah I'm 5'9" and kind of burly and it was the most uncomfortable seats I've ever been in on Broadway. I'd rather go to the St. James. I don't know how someone taller or bigger would even fit in for 2+ hours.
