Lea Michele recently reminisced about attending the Met Gala with her then-boyfriend, Cory Monteith, 12 years after his tragic passing. In a candid discussion about her iconic fashion moments over the years on the YouTube series “Gloves Off with Nicky Campbell,” the former “Glee” star fondly recalled their experience at the prestigious event.
“It was my second Met Gala. The first one, I wore Escada, red, and it was my first Met Ball, I was a deer in headlights, no clue what I was doing,” Michele, now 38, shared. “This was my second one. Cory and I went together, which was so exciting because you’re not really allowed to bring anyone to the Met.”
Describing the night as “so much fun,” Michele reflected on the surreal feeling of being at the event with Monteith, admitting they felt like “uncool kids” amongst the glamorous crowd.
Tragically, Monteith passed away in July 2013 at the age of 31 due to a heroin and alcohol overdose following a battle with addiction. Michele has since opened up about the challenges of grieving his death while still filming “Glee,” especially as their home in West Hollywood became a stop on a Hollywood bus tour showcasing celebrities who had passed away.
“I had a tour bus that would go past my house, and the guide would announce, ‘Lea Michele, Rachel Berry on Glee,’ followed by ‘Don’t Rain on My Parade’ playing while I’m sitting in my living room,” Michele shared. “It was the tour of people who have died, and after everything happened, this bus would come by.”
The actress also revealed the emotional toll of dealing with Monteith’s death at a young age, expressing how unprepared she was to navigate such profound grief and loss.
“It was so sad and depressing. I was 26. No one handed me a guidebook. It was a fast education on more stuff than I could ever even process,” Michele confessed.
Despite the challenges she faced, Michele continues to honor Monteith’s memory each year on the anniversary of his passing, paying tribute to her late boyfriend and “Glee” co-star in heartfelt ways. The enduring impact of their relationship and the profound loss she experienced serve as a poignant reminder of the fragility of life and the enduring power of love and remembrance. The world of technology is constantly evolving, with new innovations and advancements being made every day. From smartphones to smart homes, technology has become an integral part of our daily lives. One of the most exciting developments in recent years is the rise of artificial intelligence (AI).
AI is the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. It involves the creation of intelligent machines that can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as speech recognition, decision-making, and language translation. AI has the potential to revolutionize industries and improve the way we live and work.
One of the most popular applications of AI is in the field of virtual assistants. Virtual assistants are AI-powered programs that can perform tasks and provide information to users through natural language commands. These virtual assistants, such as Siri, Alexa, and Google Assistant, have become increasingly popular in recent years, with more and more people relying on them for everyday tasks.
Virtual assistants can help users with a wide range of tasks, from setting reminders and alarms to answering questions and providing information. They can also control smart home devices, play music, and even order food or book appointments. Virtual assistants are constantly learning and improving, thanks to AI algorithms that analyze data and improve their performance over time.
AI-powered virtual assistants have the potential to revolutionize the way we interact with technology. They can make our lives easier and more convenient by automating tasks and providing information quickly and efficiently. As AI technology continues to advance, virtual assistants will become even more intelligent and intuitive, anticipating our needs and providing personalized assistance.
In addition to virtual assistants, AI is also being used in a wide range of industries, from healthcare to finance to transportation. AI-powered algorithms are being used to analyze medical data, detect diseases, and develop new treatments. In finance, AI is being used to detect fraud, predict market trends, and automate trading. In transportation, AI is being used to develop self-driving cars and improve traffic management.
Overall, artificial intelligence is transforming the way we live and work, with virtual assistants being just one example of its potential. As AI technology continues to advance, we can expect to see even more exciting developments in the future. From self-driving cars to intelligent healthcare systems, the possibilities are endless. AI is truly revolutionizing the world of technology, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds.
