Lea Michele is being accused of bad behavior once again.
In her most recent appearance on "The Tonight Show," when she emerged after her name was called, it appeared as though she was attempting to compete for attention with Sadie Sink, another guest who was seated next to Tariq.
The former "Glee" star caressed the "Stranger Things" actress' arm before extending her hand to shake Jimmy Fallon's.
The 20-year-old aspiring actress had to shift aside and give up her position next to Tariq when the 36-year-old Broadway star approached to shake the host's hand.
It's not apparent, though, whether the show's creators instructed them to take a specific action. As shown in a viral video posted on TikTok, the awkward encounter was broadcasted on television, and viewers of that program believed Lea was trying to steal the show.

"Did anybody else see this move? Sadie was really modest and nicely responded," one person commented in the comments, while another person on social media said, "I witnessed this live and it was sooo awkward, rude, and it's actually a pretty childish move."
Despite this, other people commended Sadie for not making a big deal out of the situation.
One fan commented, "I, and this is my opinion, can't bear Lea for the life of me, her narcissism grinds my gears. Sadie handled it with tremendous grace."
Lea Michele's actions have caused controversy in the past, mostly when she starred on the Fox hit show.
George Rivera, Naya Rivera's father, recently said in an interview that the two of them frequently fought, and that everyone could see it.
In fact, he went on to say that although the two actresses despised one another, they nevertheless valued their abilities.

Lea has also been exposed in the past for being a diva and making life miserable for some of her "Glee" coworkers.
After getting an invitation from a friend to attend a performance in October 2022, her former co-star Chris Colfer declines to see her in her Broadway play, admitting that the mere prospect of seeing Lea perform was "triggering" enough.
However, the "Funny Girl" actor did accept and apologize for her acts, admitting that she is not a perfect person.
"One of the most important lessons of the last few weeks is that we need to take the time to listen and learn about other people's perspectives and any role we have played or anything we can do to help address the injustices that they face."
