Lea Michele of Glee graces the cover of the the September issue of Harper’s Bazaar, hitting newsstands August 16.
In the interview inside the issue, Lea chats about her career plans, fellow cast mates, and her boyfriend, Theo Stockman.
On her career:
“I don’t stop…It’s my nature. People have to tell me to slow down. I plan on playing every role on Broadway… I want to do movies, make music. Glee is only the beginning.”
On getting bad career advice:
“How many managers told me, ‘Get a nose job. You’re not pretty enough’? But I proved them wrong.” The Glee concert movie premieres this month. “In 3-D,” she says, laughing, “my nose is going to look fabulous.”
On rumors that she’s a diva:
“People have to remember this is all new for us. We’re all reasonably young, except for Cory [Monteith], who’s old.” Lea continues, “I’ve learned some lessons. But people are going to say what they want to say. I know who I am, and I’m not perfect.”
On her boyfriend:
“I have a small life. I just want to be around [Glee cast] all day”. On a typical night, she and her boyfriend “cook dinner, have wine.”
