THE DOSSIER: NAME: Lea Michele. TRADE: Actress, Glee.VIBE: Cozy Californian. ABODE: West Hollywood bungalow, CA.

When our editor-at-large, interior designer and fashion stylist Estee Stanley, convinced close friend and client Lea Michele to submit her new place to a Domaine-style makeover, the stakes could not have been higher. “You know this could be the end of our relationship, right?” the actress asked Stanley, only half kidding. We agreed to an against-all-odds timeline: four hours to move nearly all of Michele’s possessions into temporary storage, unload a bungalow’s worth of shopping, style the selections, and have everything ready for an unveiling at 1:30 p.m., in time for her homecoming.

CASING THE JOINT Like any covert-op worth its truckload of rugs from Lawrence of La Brea (as the case happened to be), Stanley and Domaine editorial director Mat Sanders came prepared, having hit Brenda Antin, Nathan Turner, Lucca Antiques and Pat McGann in the La Cienega Design Quarter earlier in the week, and snapped up tableware from West Elm and Table Art. “The only direction she gave me was that she wanted it to be cozy,” Stanley says of the jumping off point. “And not to touch Barbara.” (Michele has curated a small photo collection dedicated to the Funny Girl diva.)

MOVING IN Streisand oath taken, the mission began in the living room, where an invitingly deep Brenda Antin couch upholstered in French linen satisfied Michele’s request for comfort. An English library cabinet from Nathan Turner was brought in as the room’s focal point, with a pair of rattan chairs placed on either side of the tiled fireplace, and a duo of vintage rug upholstered chairs from Nicky Kehoe set behind the custom oak topped metal coffee table. The chair-dense configuration was intended to coin a salon vibe. “It’s a room for sitting and conversing,” Sanders says. Michele’s own coffee table books—Charlotte Mullin’s Painting People and another starring you-know-who—personalize the space.

A NEW YORK MINUTE In the entryway Stanley paid homage to Michele’s native Manhattan with a traditional wingback chair upholstered in weathered black leather and updated with a linen cushion. The actress’ own equestrian-themed giclée print hangs over an indoor garden themed vignette, with a muted Persian rug providing a family heirloom-feeling backdrop. “I’m definitely feminine, but at the same time I don’t want my house to be overtly so,” says Michele. “I wanted it to have touches of masculinity, and that chair is such a nice balance.” Around the corner, a decidedly ladylike writing desk hosts the star’s SAG and People’s Choice Awards. “I call it my Bradshaw,” she confesses.

GOOD THINGS COME IN SMALL FLOORPLANS Opting to keep Michele’s Restoration Hardware steel and reclaimed elm dining table along with a trio of industrial dining room chairs, the team added a one-of-a-kind French Baroque-inspired blue velvet settee to the mix. “Especially in smaller houses, you need something original and funky, to give it that flavor,” says Stanley. “People tend to get scared and want to leave it at one or two pieces, but really you need to do the opposite to create that homey-ness.”

THE REVEAL “No sooner did we wipe the dust off the edge of the entry table and the last mover was out the door than we heard the gate open and saw Michele’s little Prius coming up the drive,” Sanders says, describing the scene as a Price is Right moment. “She squealed and sort of almost cried,” Stanley agrees. “I think she was shocked that she loved it.” Ask Michele however, and she insists: “I always had the utmost faith!” Whether or not she’d swear to it on Babs is another story.

Break out the show tunes, Glee has been renewed for two more seasons! The news was confirmed today with star Lea Michele tweeting her excitement.

The show’s network Fox confirmed the news on Friday, announcing a fifth and sixtrh season which will take the show through to May 2015. ”Glee debuted as the first and only successful musical comedy series on television, and more than four years later, it continues to defy genres, break new ground and have a significant impact on popular culture,” said Fox chairman Kevin Reilly in a statement.

“Week in and week out … the entire Glee team deliver(s) a series that not only delights and surprises fans, but also inspires them to talk about, share, debate and engage with the show – and I’m absolutely thrilled to have them on board for another two seasons.”

The show has come a long since bursting onto screens in 2009 with the current season seeing the school’s graduated seniors moving on from McKinley High and scattering across the US.

One person who was clearly excited by today’s news is star Lea Michele who plays Rachel Berry in the show. Taking to her twitter page soon after the announcement, Lea wrote:

Lea Michele (Rachel) and her Glee co-star Cory Monteith (Finn) have been dating for over a year now. Lea now says she can’t even remember a time when Cory wasn’t her boyfriend, but the truth is, they worked on the show together for over two years before anyone knew they were romantically involved.

The couple recently sat down together for an interview about Rachel’s solo version of “Don’t Stop Believin’,” which appeared in Glee Season 4, Episode 19: “Sweet Dreams.” With Lea sitting right there at his side, Cory was asked about his first impression when he first met his now-girlfriend.

“The first impression I had when I met Lea was, I was intimidated because…” Lea cocks her head to the side and gets a funny look on her face. “Honestly, I was,” he tells her. “I was intimidated because you are very talented.”

“I heard about this Lea Michele Sarfati, so I went on YouTube and looked at all these videos of you performing on stage, and when I met you, I was nervous. She just kind of had a different energy than everyone else there.”

“Aww, good answer,” Lea tells him. The two look just about as sweet and coupley as can be. He has his hand on her knee and she’s wrapped her arms around his.

In less ridiculously adorable news, Cory entered rehab for substance abuse not long after this interview was filmed. Lea has been firm in her support of her boyfriend’s decision, and reports are saying that the couple’s relationship remains “as strong as ever.” Our thoughts are with Cory as he embarks on this journey to recovery.Tweet

Glee’s triumphant fourth season has just wrapped up filming — nooooo, an entire summer of Glee-less doom is almost upon us! — and that means superstar cast member Lea Michele (Rachel Berry) is free, free as a bird now.

This gal had a pretty rough start to 2013, Her boyfriend, Glee’s Cory Monteith (Finn), entered rehab for substance addiction at the end of March. Given that, we’d say it’s certainly time that she take the edge off and relax. And that’s exactly what she’s doing! Now that Lea doesn’t have early morning wake up calls for Glee, she can finally venture into the woods to become one with Mother Earth. Or something. “Tucked away in the mountains enjoying the fresh air, the sunshine and peace,” Lea tweeted on April 21, adding “So enjoying this long weekend break in the mountains! Catching up on my sleep and getting lots of sun and watching movies! ”

We’re all about Lea chilling out with some forest animals, but let’s hope this mountain retreat is secretly a resort. Because otherwise there’s a strong possibility that girlfriend will turn into a lumberjack / feral woodland creature, and never return to Glee’s heaving bosom.

Cory Monteith has called a time out. The Glee star, 30, has checked into rehab, his rep tells Us Weekly. “Cory Monteith has voluntarily admitted himself into a treatment facility for substance addiction,” his rep says in a statement. “He graciously asks for your respect and privacy as he takes the necessary steps towards recovery.”

It’s not the first rehab stint for the British Columbia-born actor. In a revealing 2011 interview with Parade, Monteith revealed that he dropped out of school at age 16 and hit drugs and alcohol hard. “I burned a lot of bridges,” the FOX star admitted. As for his drug use, Monteith revealed he did “anything and everything, as much as possible . . . I had a serious problem.”

Fearing he “could die,” Monteith’s family and friends staged an intervention when he was 19. “That’s when I first went to rehab,” he told Parade. “I did the stint but then went back to doing exactly what I left off doing.”
He reached rock bottom when he was caught stealing “a significant amount of money from a family member . . . I was so desperate I didn’t care. It was a cry for help,” he revealed. Given an ultimatum by his family — get clean and sober or be turned over to cops — Monteith finally kicked his habit, got a job as a roofer, and began working with an acting coach.

“This is a total surprise,” a source close to the star tells Us. “He has always been very honest about how he struggled.”
Just a few weeks ago, Monteith and girlfriend/Glee costar Lea Michele — they’ve been dating for over a year — were all smiles at a family wedding near Vancouver.
For her part, Michele, 26, tweeted on Sunday: “Feeling so grateful today <3″
