There is reportedly a lot of bad blood between the two actresses, with Rivera being jealous of Michele's status as the female lead of the show.
"They're always icy to each other, a Glee source told Us Weekly recently. "Naya is jealous that Lea is the show's main star... There is a lot of sighing and eye-rolling between them."
Another insider said, "They talk behind each other's backs -- a lot."
News of Rivera possibly not appearing in Glee in the future has riled up fans of the actress/singer, who trended the hashtag #NoNayaNoGlee on Twitter this week.
The season 5 finale is titled The Untitled Rachel Berry Project and was originally supposed to feature Santana returning from a trip to Hawaii with Brittany (Heather Morris). However, it seems that Santana's future on the show is now in question.
