Lea Michele replied by posting a statement on Instagram. “When I don't remember I made a specific statement like this and I never judge other people by their background or skin color, but that's not the point. What's important is that I did something that hurt other people, ”he said.

Even though they have issued an official apology, the actors who have played roles have opened their voices regarding the discriminatory attitude carried out by Lea Michele.

Heather Morris who once played with Michele on Glee mentions “For Leah to treat others with the attitude she does during whatever she does, I believe she should be reprimanded. And yes, it's also because we let things go on in silence so this is something we learned. "

Gerard Canonico who starred in Spring Awakening with Michele wrote back his comments on Michele's upload. “You are a nightmare for me and the other players. You make us unworthy of being there. I tried for years to be nice to you. Maybe actually apologizing instead of blaming the other person who rebukes you. You will definitely delete this (comment). "

Another Glee player, Dabier Snell, wrote, "You don't let me sit with other players because I don't belong there," he said in capital letters.

Melissa Benoist, Abigail Breslin, Amber Riley, Yvette Nicole Brown, and Alex Newell also voiced Michele's acts of racism.
