Cory Monteith & Lea Michele - Before They Found Fame On 'Glee'

Two years ago, Lea Michele and Cory Monteith were unknown actors. Now, thanks to "Glee," they are superstars! So, how did this happen? Access takes a look back, beginning with their "Glee" audition tapes.

I hope so too!! Lea was amazing in SA!! I actually sat up on the stage during the show. For those who never saw the show, Spring Awakening had an onstage audience seating where throughout the show, you felt the energy of the cast. The best part was Lea singing the opening song of the show upclose. She would stand on this chair and opens the show with this ballad called Mama Who Bore Me.
