Lea Michele vs. Sarah Hyland – Red Carpet Showdown

It’s a battle of the brunettes!

Glee star Lea Michele had her ego bruised at this year’s Emmy Awards, and not just because she didn’t take home a little golden Emmy-thingy.

Shortly after the awards, Modern Family’s Sarah Hyland appeared on E!’s Fashion Police and took and dealt a couple of low blows to the 25-year-old songstress’ Red Carpet routine,

So it’s like a slow-motion picture kinda thing. It’s just like, she puts her hands on her hips like this and sticks out her collarbone—I don’t know if you can see—she sticks out her collarbone to make her look skinnier and she goes [pouts lips] sticks out her lips… It’s very strange, it’s very strange. I actually saw a clip of her doing that on the red carpet and you see me in the background, like with my back turned looking at my publicist, being like ‘I don’t know what to do right now.’ Like this is very awkward for me, I’ve never seen anything like this before in my life.

Ouch!  Buuuuut to be fair, she’s got a point.  However, Ms. Michele didn’t quite see the humor in Sarah’s schtick and told US Weekly that,

I gotta be honest. It hurt my feelings a little bit… I really think the message of today is that women should motivate and empower women, and so that’s why I’m honored to be a part of today.

Hyland later apologized about the remarks via Twitter,

I did not intend for my comments to be taken in a malicious way… But I did hate [her] dress. Called her ass great. Did you all hear that one?

Congrats Lea. You know how to work the red carpet. I can’t take it as seriously as you… I can’t take myself that seriously. I don’t like the red carpet. I feel silly. So props to her for knowing what she’s doing and enjoying it.

Okay, I guess that’s sort of an apology…

Even though her joke was a little mean-spirited, I’m on Team Sarah – the world would be a better place if we all learned how to laugh at ourselves!
