Lea Michele and Naya Rivera were reportedly in a lengthy feud during their time on Glee together, and now, the show’s creator Ryan Murphy has spoken about the speculation.
Ryan was speaking about his new FX show Feud when he was asked about Lea and Naya.
“I feel like in the case of that show [Glee], that show was just a s–tstorm of difficulty, largely because, what do you do when you’re 18 years old or 19 years old and you wake up one day and you’re world famous? I think a lot of that was informed by their youth and being involved in a phenomenon. And I know for a fact that they [Lea and Naya] admired each other’s work, ’cause I directed them both in scenes,” Ryan told E! about their rumored feud.
When asked if he would take on Lea and Naya‘s feud for his new FX Feud series, he replied, “I don’t think I would take on Lea and Naya. I think for a feud to work on this show, it has to have decades of pain behind it. But if they’re still feuding at 40, I might consider it. I’ll call them up in a couple years.”
And then, Ryan dropped this little tidbit. “There were many boys on our show that didn’t get along. And you never hear about that. You never hear about that in our culture,” he said.
Lea Michele is opening up about the support she received from Glee and Scream Queens creator Ryan Murphy after the death of her boyfriend Cory Monteith three years ago.
“When I found out [Cory had died], Ryan was one of the first people I called. When Cory was alive, Ryan was very helpful in trying to get him well and healthy but, when that day did come, Ryan did take charge, and he helped me more than I can ever explain,” the 30-year-old actress told Entertainment Weekly.
“He completely cared for me. He made sure I was okay every single day, whether it was coming over to his house and having dinner prepared for me, or making sure I was okay at work,” Lea continued. “He sat me down and said, ‘What do you want to do? Do you want to continue the show? Do you want it to end?’ I just said, ‘I just want to go back to work.’ His heart is bigger than I think he knows what to do with sometimes.”

Cory Monteith is being remembered by Glee creator Ryan Murphy on what would have been in 33rd birthday (May 11).
“It’s always hard when I speak about Cory because I miss Cory,” Ryan told People. “It’s a very sort of sad feeling when I think about him. I miss him. I loved him. I think about him every day.”
He added, “I think that he was taken too soon, [that's] one of the great tragedies to me. I do think that he influenced and helped so many people, and I have to hold on to that. It’s too overwhelmingly sad.”
