Lea Michele has been accused of making a “Glee” co-star’s life a “living hell” during their time together on the hit series.

Samantha Ware, who played Jane Hayward, called out Michele, 33, for “traumatic microagressions” after the star tweeted about the Black Lives Matter movement by writing, “George Floyd did not deserve this. This was not an isolated incident and it must end. #BlackLivesMatter.”

Ware, 28, retweeted Michele’s message and responded, “LMAO REMEMBER WHEN YOU MADE MY FIRST TELEVISON GIG A LIVING HELL?!?! CAUSE ILL NEVER FORGET. I BELIEVE YOU TOLD EVERYONE THAT IF TOU HAD THE OPPORTUNITY YOU WOULD ‘S–T IN MY WIG!’ AMONGST OTHER TRAUMATIC MICROAGRESSIONS THAT MADE ME QUESTION A CAREER IN HOLLYWOOD…”

Ware — whose role on “Glee” was on Season 6 — appeared to receive support from some of her black “Glee” co-stars, including Amber Riley, who posted a GIF of herself sipping tea.

Another former “Glee” cast mate, Alex Newell, also lauded Ware, writing, “I’m gonna say this one time… when my friends goes through something traumatic I also go through it… that’s what friendship is… and if you can’t understand that then you’re part of the problem… and that’s on PERIODT! And I mean that for both sides of this coin!”

Rumors of Michele’s icy behavior have swirled since the show’s run from 2009 to 2015, with most of the publicity surrounding her frosty relationship with Naya Rivera.

Rivera, 33, got candid about Michele in her 2016 book, “Sorry Not Sorry: Dreams, Mistakes and Growing Up.”

“One of the Glee writers once said that Lea and I were like two sides of the same battery and that about sums us up. We are both strong willed and competitive—not just with each other but with everyone—and that’s not a good mixture,” Rivera penned.

“Lea and I definitely weren’t the best of friends, and I doubt we’ll ever sit on her couch and eat kale together again, but the rumors of our ‘feud’ were blown out of proportion,” she added.

Page Six has reached out to Michele’s rep for comment.
