On September 6, Lea Michele made her Broadway debut as Fanny Brice at New York City's August Wilson Theater.

Her appearance on the show comes two years after she was exposed as a cruel girl and diva.

It has now been stated that she is behaving well behind the scenes at "Funny Girl."

According to Page Six, the former "Glee" star, who played the role of Rachel Berry, goes out of her way to be incredibly kind behind the scenes.

In fact, she is allegedly "being so sweet" that she makes Julie Andrews appear like a "b-tch."

An insider who spoke to the outlet revealed that the the mom-of-one is being "so nice, it's crazy." She even reportedly knows everybody's name and birthdays.

They even said of Lea's "over-the-top kindness," "She is watering-the-plants-in-[castmates']-dressing-rooms kind of nice. It's an expression, a joke. She's not actually doing it ... yet."

Former "Glee" actress Samantha Morris accused Lea Michele of making "traumatic microaggressions" when she takes over as Fanny Brice following Beanie Feldstein and Julie Benko.

Heather Morris, another castmate, publicly exposed Lea, stating she was "unpleasant to work with," while late actress Naya Rivera said Lea "didn't enjoy" sharing the spotlight with any of them.

Lea Michele remembered her prior reputation in an interview with the New York Times, claiming she can now "truly grasp the purpose and value of being a leader" after a "intensive time of introspection."

She went on to emphasize that it's not just about going and doing an outstanding job in front of the camera, but also about what happens behind the scenes.

Lea admitted that it wasn't always something she deemed necessary during her time in "Glee."

Beanie Feldstein quit the program in July after receiving several negative reviews. According to a source at the time, it wasn't her fault because "she was poorly cast."

Meanwhile, on September 6, Lea Michele had the whole audience's attention.

According to Deadline, she received four standing ovations, while TV host Frank DiLella stated she received seven late in the evening.

Despite a rough few years of bad press about herself, Lea Michele was able to leave a lasting impact on the stage as she took on the role of a lifetime.

She delivered an emotional performance in the main role, which was made famous by Barbra Streisand in 1964.
