It was a fast education on more stuff than I ever could have processed. If we didn\u2019t show up for work, then a lot of people wouldn\u2019t have work to go to, and that was a lot of pressure for me. So, I had to put my stuff aside and just show up so that everybody could continue to work.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"subbuzz__media\">\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"js-subbuzz-wrapper\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"subbuzz buzz-width--standard__subbuzz buzz-type--list__subbuzz subbuzz-image subbuzz-index-4 \" data-keywords=\"fast fashion\" data-module=\"subbuzz-image\">\n<h2 class=\"subbuzz__header subbuzz__header--standard subbuzz__title \">\n<p> <span class=\"js-subbuzz__title-text\">Elsewhere on the podcast, Lea offered some shocking insight into the downside of fame as she detailed how voyeuristic Cory\u2019s death became. Discussing her life before his passing, she said: \u201cLife was very different. I mean, I had a tour bus that would go past my house in West Hollywood, and you would hear it. I\u2019d be in the house and it\u2019d be like: \u2018Lea Michele, Rachel Berry on <i>Glee<\/i>!\u2019 And then it would be like, I would hear: \u2018Don\u2019t Rain On My Parade\u2019 playing while I\u2019m sitting in my living room.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"subbuzz__media\">\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"js-subbuzz-wrapper\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"subbuzz buzz-width--standard__subbuzz buzz-type--list__subbuzz subbuzz-image subbuzz-index-5 \" data-module=\"subbuzz-image\">\n<h2 class=\"subbuzz__header subbuzz__header--standard subbuzz__title \">\n<p> <span class=\"js-subbuzz__title-text\">She then remembered: \u201cAlso, there was a tour bus that used to drive by my house \u2014 my publicist will probably want to cut this \u2014 but it was the tour of people that have died, and after everything happened, this bus would come by. It was like, \u2018Hollywood Tragedy\u2019 tour bus, and here I was, 26 years old, and this tour bus would go by my house, and every day I would hear, like: \u2018These are the details and blah blah blah blah blah,\u2019 and eerie music would be playing from the bus.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"subbuzz__media\">\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"js-subbuzz-wrapper\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"subbuzz buzz-width--standard__subbuzz buzz-type--list__subbuzz subbuzz-image subbuzz-index-6 \" data-module=\"subbuzz-image\">\n<h2 class=\"subbuzz__header subbuzz__header--standard subbuzz__title \">\n<p> <span class=\"js-subbuzz__title-text\">\u201cIt was so sad, it was so, so depressing,\u201d Lea concluded. Unsurprisingly, the star also noted that when she moved home, she was sure to stay away from the tourist area of Los Angeles, sharing: \u201cFast-forward, like, four years later, I bought a house so high up in the canyon. Far, far, like, deep in Pacific Palisades, because I was like: \u2018I have to get out of West Hollywood.\u2019\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"subbuzz__media\">\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"js-subbuzz-wrapper\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"subbuzz buzz-width--standard__subbuzz buzz-type--list__subbuzz subbuzz-text subbuzz-index-7 \" data-module=\"subbuzz-text\">\n<h2 class=\"subbuzz__header subbuzz__header--standard subbuzz__title \">\n<p> <span class=\"js-subbuzz__title-text\">What do you make of the whole thing?
