From www.leamicheleweb.org:
Lea Michele, breakout star from Fox hit ‘Glee,’ stole the Tony Awards Sunday night when she marched down the center aisle of Radio City Music Hall belting out Barbra Streisand’s hit ‘Don’t Rain On My Parade’ to the star-studded crowd. Even Beyonce who was sitting next to her husband Jay Z, was stunned to hear Michele’s amazing voice.
“Lea is definitely going to be one of the biggest recording stars in the world,” a recording executive told me after the show. “Her voice is up there with Mariah and Beyonce. There is nothing she cannot do. With the right song this girl could save the music business, appealing to other young and old.”
And with a revival of ‘Funny Girl’ scheduled to hit Broadway in 2012 — the first time since its original production in 1964 staring Barbra Streisand — it looks like producers might have found someone who could not only stand up to Streisand’s legacy, but also totally surpass it.

Lea & Matthew Perform at the Tony's!
OK, all...
Just watched the back-to-back performances of Matthew Morrison & Lea Michele.
Mr. Shue was doing a lot of work & was quite entertaining. From the pix I saw of the dress rehearsals, it didn't disappoint! He was out of breath by the end, but he danced his behind off & stayed in tune! He was wonderful!
I am still disappointed that Lea Michele did "Don't Rain on my Parade". She did it JUST like she did on the "Sectionals" episode. However, she did find Jonathan Groff (aka - Jessie St. James) & sat on his lap, plus flirted with Will Smith & Jay-Z. Even with all of that, AND the shout out to the Tony's, it still read just like sectionals on GLEE. Really wished she'd done something else. You know...Kristen Chenoweth AND Indina Menzel were there...they could have all gotten together & done a big ol' "For Good" rendition that would've, could've, been beautiful!
What did everyone else think?
