Cosmopolitan magazine is defending a sexy cover mage of Lea Michele, in which the “Glee” star bares considerable cleavage.
After some parents fumed it was inappropriate, Hearst released a statement to Fox, “We’re thrilled to feature Lea Michele on the March cover of Cosmopolitan magazine and think she looks stunning. Michele is a grown woman and Cosmopolitan is a magazine is for adults.”
In October, Michele and her co-stars Dianna Agron and Cory Monteith came under fire for a racy GQ cover, which the Parents Television Council criticized as “near pornographic pedophilia.” (Agron went on to apologize, Michele did not.)
