I have to admit, I am a self confessed musical freak. I love musical productions sometimes more then fashion (please keep that between us). Wicked, Cats, Rent you name it I have the soundtrack on my iPod. So naturally you can imagine my excitement when Glee starting airing in Australia. It’s now my go to soundtrack for spin class, driving to work and any other time I can crank up the volume. So this weeks Celebrity Style profile I wanted to proudly nominate my favourite Glee cast member Lea Michele who plays Rachel in the program. Lea may not be known inside for the fashion industry for her style as yet, but she deserves recognition for the impeccable choices she has made at award show appearances in 09/10.

The Stats on Lea Michele:

DOB: 29 August 1986 (she is 23)

Broadway Career: Lea started out as a child star on Broadway in productions of Les Miserables, The Little Girl and Rag Time. At age 20 she was cast as a lead in Broadway’s Spring Awakening a career defining moment that earned her a Drama Desk Award nomination.

Television Career: Glee was Lea’s first big break into television. She has been nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award, a Teen Choice Award and a Golden Globe Award for her performance as Rachel in the series, the star of the school’s show tune choir, Glee Club..  She has been cast as Dorothy Gale in Dorothy of Oz, which is currently filming.

Fashion Style: Glee only first aired in May 2009 so Lea

 is still quiet a beginner to the Hollywood treatment. This includes dressing for appearances and off duty paparazzi snaps. For someone with less then a year of practice I think she is doing an impeccable job. I think for a style rookie choosing an Oscar De La Renta dress for the Golden Globes was a infallible move and this move has given me faith in her fashion style for a while to come. (pictured right) More recently she was donned an eye catching Catherine Malandrino gown at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, so stunning! (pictured up left)
