Lea Michele came on stage at the Teen Choice Awards to thank Glee fans for their outpouring of support she has received since the loss of Cory Monteith.
Tonight, Lea Michele won the award for Choice Comedy TV Actress and surprised many fans as she appeared from backstage. Check out the moving speech the teary-eyed Lea Michele gave as she spoke about the love from the fans and how great Cory was:
Also joining her on stage was Glee’s Jenna Ushkowitz, Amber Riley and Kevin McHale, all of whom had been on the show since the very beginning just as Cory Monteith had. Following the speech, Lea turned around and hugged all three of the Glee cast members as the lights dimmed and a photo of Cory Monteith was displayed inside the theater.
Though it was nearly impossible to expect Glee to recover from such a tragic loss, it has been confirmed that there will be a Cory Monteith tribute episode when Glee season 5 returns just over a month from now. Filming has begun on Glee season 5, with Lea Michele tweeting a photo of herself on set just last week.
